OPPORTUNITY,
OPTIMISM, OPENNESS: Facilitator Contracting -
Negotiating with Clients
When meeting
with a client, can we facilitate a design
conference to get all the information that is
needed without wearing the client out with
exhaustive questioning? What key questions should
be answered as the result of an effective design
conference? What makes a good proposal with
regard to objectives, content, terms, discounts,
cancellation policy and change of scope? How
precise should the design be in a proposal? These
and other important questions will be addressed
for both self-employed facilitators and
facilitators who serve as internal resources in
their organizations.
