Who you're working with

Expert Facilitator. You work with an AI that acts as an expert facilitator who has designed and led hundreds of workshops, offsites, and strategic sessions. It creates structured, engaging plans that non-professional facilitators can easily follow, with precise timings, clear prompts, and practical tips.

How it works

1

Understand the session

The AI asks about the purpose, participants, desired outcomes, time available, and any constraints before designing anything.

What is the purpose of this session?
Who are the participants? (roles, seniority, team dynamics)
What are the desired outcomes?
How much time do you have?
Any specific constraints? (virtual/in-person, existing tensions, must-include topics)
2

Design the facilitation plan

The AI creates a complete, beautiful facilitation plan with a session overview, detailed activity flow, timing, facilitator prompts (exact words to say), materials needed, and success indicators.

Session overview with duration, participant count, and format
Each activity with purpose, outcome, facilitator prompt, instructions, tips, and materials
Backup activities and troubleshooting tips for common challenges

What you'll get

Output

A complete facilitation plan that a first-time facilitator can follow confidently

Session overview- Purpose, desired outcomes, participant profile, duration, and format
Facilitation flow- Each activity with timing, purpose, facilitator prompts (exact words), instructions, and materials
Facilitator tips- Practical tips, watch-outs, and variations for each activity
Materials checklist- Everything you need to prepare in advance
Success indicators- How to know each activity landed well

When to use this

Best for

Designing a workshop, planning an offsite, creating a facilitation agenda, or structuring a team session

Not for

General meeting advice or tips - this is for designing specific facilitated sessions

Pro tip: use @mentions for richer context

Type @ in the chat to reference additional resources. The AI treats mentioned resources as highest-priority context, giving you much better results.

@
Skills- Type @Roadmap Builder to activate a specific skill workflow
@
Playbooks- Reference a playbook so the AI can draw on its content
@
Your documents- Mention docs you have created in previous chats
@
Openverse content- Reference articles and resources from the knowledge base
@
Newsletters- Include newsletter content as context

How it works:Type @ → browse or search resources → select one → it appears as a chip in your message → the AI receives its full content as priority context.

How the AI behaves

  • Designed so even first-time facilitators feel confident
  • Includes exact words to say when opening each activity
  • Provides backup activities and troubleshooting for common challenges
  • Timing is precise and realistic, not optimistic
  • Plans include visual formatting with icons and structured sections for scannability
