Confidentiality

It is very important to build confidentiality among the group members for the purpose of building a solid relationship among the group. The discussing subject materials which are being discussed within the group should not be discussed at outside or with outsiders. This is how to build confidentiality among group members.

Respect

The facilitator should respect the views of all the group members and also should teach the group members or the trainees to respect each others views by not condemning others views and showing some sort of interest to hear the others views and also to think in their point of view. This will be a remedy for resolution of lots of conflicts within the group. 

Listening

People have various means of communication. This should be mainly categorized into verbal and non-verbal communication. Verbally and non-verbally what people say is the way that they interprit their own expressions. Hence it is a very integral and important task to listen what people (trainees) say in order to have a good skill enhancement session.

Participative Facilitation

In participative facilitation the facilitator is used to share his personal experiences with the trainees in order to make the skill enhancement program to be more interesting. For the purpose of perceiving a particular perception in the trainees mind he gives his own personal life examples which he or she thinks might be useful to the trainees.

Delegating Facilitaion

Delegating facilitation provides the trainees to have experience in some organizational activities even in organizing the skill enhancement programs. They are assigned specific tasks and roles and authority is delegated for them to complete the specified tasks. This is how delegated facilitation takes place in action. 

Exploratory Facilitation

In this style the facilitator is used to ask questions about the previous experiences of the trainees or the group members. The facilitation process is conducted  by an interactive questionnaire method..
