Mable Emerging Leaders Institute (previously the New Professionals Institute) to support the development of emerging leaders as they collectively serve thousands of students on a daily basis. This Institute includes several mentoring opportunities and one-on-one interactions with several of today’s leaders in higher education and student affairs as resident faculty and small group facilitators.
Join The Leadership and Training Studio and Erin Fischer for a two-day, hands-on, engaging and entertaining seminar.

You will learn how to write participant guides, facilitator guides, identify 40 learning methods and understand why you can’t write learning objectives until the end of your course! By the end of the two days, you will have a template for writing consistently and engaging material with ease.

Why should you (and your team) go? When we think about facilitation, we know the right facilitator can make all the difference. You know this to be true if you remember the last bad facilitator you had. So, we have created content to help you deliver the best for your audience. First, as your guides, we have scoured through Mike's Ph.D. research and are sharing the top 12 things participants need from facilitators and the results are fascinating! Join us if you want to practice your facilitative skills, increase your audience’s evaluations score on your work, learn how to flex your style to meet your audience, figure out how to make your work more interactive using the 70/30 rule, practice your pace and pitch, and learn where facilitators can often go wrong. Finally, we will teach you how to read your audience when they make a face that stresses you out.
