Facilitating with AI
Introduction to Facilitation in an AI-Shaped World
With Skye Idehen-Osunde

Live Online
AI is changing how work gets done — but it hasn’t replaced the need for human facilitation. In fact, it’s made it more important.
In this introductory workshop, you’ll explore how facilitation skills and AI can work together to improve collaboration, decision-making, and alignment across teams. Rather than treating AI as a tool for faster output, we’ll focus on how facilitators and collaborative leaders can use AI inside the work — to surface perspectives, strengthen shared understanding, and design better group experiences.
This session is a practical entry point into Voltage Control’s facilitation approach and certification programs. You’ll learn the core qualities of effective facilitation, see how they map to real leadership challenges, and experience how AI can support — not replace — thoughtful, inclusive facilitation.

Introduction to Facilitation (with AI in the Mix)
A short talk on the role of facilitation in modern organizations — and how facilitators can thoughtfully integrate AI to support collaboration without losing trust, inclusion, or human judgment.
Hands-On Practice
Work in live breakouts to practice a facilitation method that incorporates AI as a thinking partner, not a shortcut — emphasizing clarity of purpose, strong prompts, and group sense-making.

Reflect on what you noticed, what felt different, and how to continue building your facilitation and collaborative leadership practice.
