Robert Corman brings his experience as a dialogue facilitator to this participative webinar, exploring what it means to develop as a practitioner over time. Early competence in facilitation often involves mastering techniques: how to open a session, how to intervene when things stall, how to bring conversations to productive closure. But what comes next? Corman reflects on the shifts that occur as practitioners move beyond technique toward something more subtle. What changes in how facilitators perceive groups? What becomes possible when intervention arises from presence rather than strategy? And what remains perpetually challenging regardless of experience? Cohosts Linda Ellinor and Nancy Dixon interview Corman about his background and development before moving participants into small groups for reflection. For newer practitioners wondering what the path ahead looks like, and for experienced facilitators recognising that mastery keeps receding, this session addresses the ongoing work of professional development in dialogue.
