Live Connections: Virtual Facilitation for High Engagement and Powerful Learning brings a fresh new perspective to the world of virtual communication, offering the insight and tools you need to unleash the enormous potential of today’s technology. It provides state-of-the-art theory and cutting-edge practices to help you design, prepare, and deliver effective virtual events of all kinds.

Through this engaging presentation, authors Judith Tavanyar and Fredrik Fogelberg bring considerable experience in areas that include corporate training, team building, group dynamics, and virtual facilitation and coaching. Practising what they preach when it comes to facilitating virtual sessions about which people can really get excited, they inject playfulness and passion into their discussion of this very timely subject.

The discussion is wide-ranging, covering everything from which technology to choose and why it’s best, to assigning a producer for technical support, to designing events that accommodate the needs of different audiences in different contexts and developing your facilitation style. The book also uniquely focuses on the much-overlooked topic of cross-cultural aspects of facilitation—making it relevant for readers from any culture.

Live Connections is a must-read for anyone seeking to explore the possibilities of people working together in virtual space.
