If the Facilitator is not the Host Church Pastor, then you may want the Host Church Pastor to introduce him/herself, welcome Delegates to your location and cover the ‘housekeeping’ items.The Event Manager or the Producer will provide you with ‘housekeeping’ notices such as building logistics and ‘health and safety’ announcements (your own venue will probably have a plan for evacuation of the building, etc).09:21 - 09:25 (4 minutes) Welcome / Explain GLS Experience including Facilitator’s Role and Process Time / Announce Speaker Bill Hybels – Introduction to Bill is on the speaker video (slides on back screen)
My name is . . . . . . . . and I’m going to be your Facilitator for the next two days. I want to give you an incredibly warm welcome to the Global Leadership Summit. Whether you are from . . . or . . . or . . . (the event manager will have a list of Delegates and where they are from) it is so good to have you here. Can I also encourage you to take the opportunity to connect with each other? You are among some of the keenest and ablest Christian leaders in the region. It is so important that we become friends. I want to say to you that we’re in for such a good time. There’s a great variety to the conference sessions and, although it is quite intense, I think you’ll find it stimulating and rewarding. The quality of Speakers that we are going to hear is absolutely ‘top drawer’. Continued on next page with Explain Role of Facilitator and Process Time … Session 1: Bill Hybels - Hard Fought Leadership Lessons … continued If you have been to a GLS before you will know that the Summit is quite an experience. Can I encourage you to participate fully in all that happens? I know we’re watching this on a screen, but can I encourage you to engage with it? If we are stirred or impressed let’s applaud. If something is funny then let’s laugh. The more we engage with it, the more we will get out of it. This will be the tenth GLS in the UK. I've seen God work powerfully in my life through what I have learnt and how I’ve been inspired to be a better leader. I’m sure that experience has been multiplied in the lives of tens of thousands of leaders around the world. This year the GLS has already reached, or will be reaching, over 650 cities in 108 countries and translated into 50 different languages. That's quite a remarkable achievement! Most of us come away from conferences with some really good insights. I don’t know if you have had this experience but I find reality has a way of taking centre stage. I can quickly lose my new found resolve as I get back into my role and responsibilities. And I know that this is a common experience for other leaders – we want to grow, we want to change, but we fail to move from intention into action. To try and help us turn good intentions into positive actions, at the end of a number of sessions we have set aside some time to process what the Speaker has presented. As your Facilitator, I am going to help you work together to sort through your ideas, capture your responses and begin to plan the next steps. You will see in your conference Workbook that there is a section called ‘Next Steps’ which is there to help you unpack the session. The time we have allocated during the Summit is just to get you started in processing what you have heard and, hopefully, will encourage you to continue to think about your next steps. Our hope is that, after the conference, you will take your Workbook away and unpack it with your teams over the next 12 months and use what you’ve heard, allowing the Lord to take you to where he wants you to go. And if you wish to revisit some of the sessions, there is a Summit Team Edition DVD available which is a great resource for leadership team meetings and retreats. Continued on next page with Introduction to Bill Hybels … Session 1: Bill Hybels - Hard Fought Leadership Lessons … continued Announce Speaker Bill HybelsAs leaders, we all know about the responsibility we are given when we are leading people. In this opening session, Bill Hybels is going to talk about ‘Hard Fought Leadership Lessons’, but first there is an introduction to Bill. 09:25 SPEAKER MESSAGE STARTS: You know him as the senior pastor of Willow Creek Community Church, founder of The Global Leadership Summit, author of more than 20 books, and most importantly a leader committed to inspiring men and women to raise the stakes when it comes to leadership. Please welcome Bill Hybels. (Bill) Thank you everybody. Before I dive into my opening talk … 10:25 SPEAKER MESSAGE ENDS: (end of prayer) .… We reach out to you with repentance, those of us who are hireling types, those of us who have been in it for ourselves and reluctant to pursue a grander vision. Change our hearts, God. Reveal to us what our grander vision could be. Fill us with expectancy for what our life could be and for what you are going to do in these next few days. We pray this in Jesus’ name. Everyone say... (Audience) Amen. (Bill Hybels) Thank you. Notes and Guidelines to Facilitator on Process TimePlease read the Delegate Process Time Notes and Guidelines on page 4. Challenge people to take action and help them to connect, reflect and interact: What were the new ideas? What made a real impression?Reading the room to keep the process time engaging and relevant is the main aim and delegate feedback from the ‘floor’ is sometimes a good way of introducing variety, but this needs to be handled carefully and thoughtfully. Feedback from the ‘floor’ would not be appropriate when there is only a short process time allocated in the programme. The mechanics of asking Delegates for feedback from the ‘floor’ needs to be set up in advance with the Producer. It requires a roving microphone with a ‘runner’ who is familiar with this procedure so that all the Delegates can clearly hear what is being said. Your input as the Facilitator is crucial as you take the initiative in who speaks and for how long. Remember that you only have a few minutes for feedback from the floor, which will probably involve a couple of Delegates making a contribution. In this first session of process time, there will not be time for feedback from the floor (15 minutes allocated) but you may want to consider trying out feedback in Session 2 and asking a couple of senior leaders, who you know are good communicators, to prepare for this in order to guarantee some helpful feedback but also to set an example for other Delegates who might engage in this way during the process times that will follow. Continued on next page with Notes and Guidelines … Session 1: Bill Hybels - Hard Fought Leadership Lessons … continued Take one question at a time and ‘read the room.’ Remember, that you don’t have to use all of the questions but then you don’t want to get stuck on any one question. It may be that you run out of time for all the questions but there are sufficient questions for the process time which has been allocated. Please work with your Producer on this so that he/she can give instructions to the Technical Coordinator on what slides to show on the screen. You may also notice that some groups are deep in discussion with a particular question and may not want to move on to the next question. Give them permission to do this. There are risks involved and how the Facilitator directs and leads Delegates through the process time will determine the success of this part of the conference (please see guidelines on page 4). We hand out a Feedback Form during the conference and one of the questions is on the rating of Delegate Process Time. Our comments and guidelines take into consideration the feedback we receive from Delegates.
