Group engagement tools

Every field has its tools – we refer to ours as “Group Engagement tools” and they are what help us turn an “ordinary” session into one that truly engages participants and yields remarkable results and outcomes.

Paired with a solid agenda and seasoned facilitators, the tools accelerate and capture meaningful dialogue.

Benefits of using Group Engagement Tools

  • Rapid and full participation of the group or team
  • Clear, concise and unedited capture of ideas and opinions
  • Surfacing of buried issues
  • True engagement of all participants
  • Ideas and innovative new ways surfaced
  • Decision making based on informed judgements
  • Commitment for action fostered

Our Group Engagement tools fundamentally alter the dynamics of groups by enabling people to contribute anonymously – sidestepping political inhibitors that so often limit contributions.

Depending on the aims and design of the session, we use the tools as part of other group processes and inputs. Our clients find that this way of working can enable richer dialogue and inform decision making as well as providing people with a sense of clarity and ownership.

Importantly, because we capture all contributions, we are able to provide instant feedback on the session, including documented decisions and agreed actions. We are normally able to provide an initial report with analysis and recommendations within one business day in any format requested.

Feedback from session participants is consistently positive and impressive; the process and tools work because people are able to have their say on the issues that affect them.

The GroupSystems ThinkTank tools we use are robust, well researched and reliable. Developed over the last 15 years, our expertise in using group engagement tools has helped us deliver over hundreds of client sessions, across most sectors, with multi lingual groups and at all levels of organisations. Challenging sessions when clients have seen the value.

Sessions supported by realise take significantly less time while outcomes have a considerably higher degree of buy-in and higher rate of implementation success
