The F.L.A.P. Program
FocusU Learning Associate Partner is a program directed at building a network of Facilitators across the world, who are certified to deliver the FocusU content - either virtually or face-to-face at client locations.
About F.L.A.P.
We have been in the space of delivering learning and engagement ourselves for a little more than a decade. Over the years, while we have created great impact with the organizations that we have worked with, we realize we are limited in our reach. Our calendars are chock-a-block with workshops – yet we are limited by our own time in how much we can take on.
How do we touch a larger number of lives with our work?
This is the question that got us started. And the constraints we realised were three:
- Hiring raw facilitators and scaling them was time consuming
- Good facilitators available in the market ran workshops in conventional ways.
- There is no enabling ecosystem that brings great content and great facilitators along with pre-program communication and post-program job aids to customers.
F.L.A.P. seeks to address these constraints by:
- Engaging with facilitators who already know the art and science of facilitation
- Creating world class content that is gamified, storified or made experiential in a uniquely
- FocusU way – and delivered by such facilitators.
- Creating pre-program support & post-program job-aids to support the workshop delivery by FLAP facilitators.
We believe that every intervention that we do for a client needs to be able to move the needle in a tangible manner for participants. Else it is just a waste of time and resources for all
What does it mean to be a F.L.A.P. facilitator?
As a F.L.A.P. facilitator, you will have the opportunity to curate world-class content – alongside the FocusU content development team – and deliver it as authentic and engaging learning workshops. While we build a learning workshop with pre-program and post-program support, we ensure that we are growing with you in the aspects you prefer.
Facilitator competencies
Through the years, we have also come to believe that a Facilitator needs to have certain competencies to be able to deliver a good FocusU workshop. They come together in the form of a nifty little acronym called SPACE. This is what it stands for:
- Safety: Creates a psychologically & physically safe environment for learners. This is the bedrock for any learning to happen.
- Preparation: Every workshop demands it be prepared for, no matter how many times one may have conducted it.
- Attunement: Ability to fine tune and adapt flows on the go, being situationally aware, being sensitive to the needs of the participants, hanging loose and displaying.
- Conversational: The ability to build easy conversations with participants in the context of the workshop, regardless of their varied profiles.
- Energy: Creating the right balance between high energy and intensity, depending on the context of the workshop and the participant profiles. Inspiring a spirit of “be more”.
