The document provides guidelines for facilitating group meetings and discussions. It outlines what should be included in an opening, such as the purpose, process, payoff and presenter information. It recommends always having an agenda that includes a welcome, introduction, objectives, presentation and closing. It provides examples of engaging participants through open-ended questions and managing dysfunction. It also suggests keeping the group aligned by letting them speak last and providing closeouts that get feedback on benefits and application. Resources for further reading on facilitation are referenced.
