Facilitating at a Distance: The Core Essentials of Teleclass & Virtual Meeting Facilitation
Downloadable Workbook



Have you considered offering a teleclass as a more efficient way to deliver training, enhance group learning and generate more
income for your business? 

Or, are you working with a distributed team that requires you to design and facilitate virtual meetings?

When done right, Teleclasses and Virtual Meetings (T/VM) are very effective and inexpensive ways to train, collaborate, and problem-solve. But if they aren't effectively facilitated, T/VM's can be a boring waste of time!

Remove the fear and uncertainty of teleclass/virtual meeting design and facilitation with the workbook that accompanies the 5-day teleclass series: Leading at a Distance: The Essentials of Teleclass & Virtual Meeting Facilitation, led by Steve Davis, Founder of FacilitatorU.com.
