Get the Summary of Adam Kahane's Facilitating Breakthrough in 20 minutes. Please note: This is a summary & not the original book. Original book introduction: This book describes a new approach: transformative facilitation. It doesn't choose either the bossy vertical or the collegial horizontal approach: it cycles back and forth between them. Rather than forcing or cajoling, the facilitator removes the obstacles that stand in the way of people contributing and connecting equitably. It enables people to bring their whole selves to the process.
