The 2026 Facilitation Lab Summit brought eight extraordinary facilitators together in Austin, Texas to explore the theme of Edges: the moments of tension, uncertainty, and emergence where the most powerful work gets done. Across two days of hands-on sessions, participants explored collective wisdom, whole intelligence, embodied presence, trauma-informed facilitation, the power of metaphor, and what it truly means to show up as a facilitator rather than just perform as one. This recap covers every session with links to the full blog post and video for each speaker, offering both a window into what happened and a practical resource for your ongoing facilitation practice.
