Facilitating a Beautiful Housing Future

Want to build more creative and dynamic experiences for community stakeholders? 

Mark-n-Sparks is currently booking group facilitation trainings for Fall 2024.

Over the course of four iterative sessions, participants will have a chance to learn creative facilitation skills and experience a unique online immersive performance focused on housing policy. The sessions are 90 minutes long. This professional development series will give you a hands-on opportunity to try new facilitation tools in a “no-stakes” environment. Contact us with questions about fees and structure.

Training

Our professional development workshops encourage participants from all kinds of organizations, non and for-profits, foundations, city councils, to share knowledge, ask questions, and practice facilitation and problem-solving. We model diverse facilitation styles and strategies to help organizations and people reconnect with their values and strengthen their processes and community outcomes.

Training and Development services include:

  • Build creative facilitation skills to create more dynamic, engaging, and transformative meetings. Explore your facilitation superpowers, and learn how to co-develop creative agendas, clarify a meeting’s purpose and outcomes, and ensure equity and accessibility.

  • Strengthen your team’s ‘imagination muscles’ and discover new solutions within a safe, “no-stakes” environment. Great for mapping out policy pathways and exploring technical topics.

  • What happens when we recall that statistics can represent people and that data can become poetry? Find ways to powerfully convey your data to your audience.

  • What’s possible at the intersection of health and housing? Working across multiple sectors can create pathways for collaborations to meet human/community needs, now and into the future.
