Featured Workshops

COMS Communication Styles
COMS Communication Styles draws inspiration from Paul Costa and Robert McCrae’s research on the Big Five Personality Model, introducing how different personality styles prefer to communicate along the spectrums of result-driven vs. interpersonal and reflective vs. assertive.
COMS is an interactive communication styles exploration. Through answering 8 strategically designed questions, you and your team will gain valuable insights into how individuals tend to communicate and interact. By visualising this into a simple but effective grid and delivering an interactive workshop, it can be instrumental in improving team dynamics, reducing conflict, and fostering more effective communication across the organization. Each of the four identified style has its strengths in different contexts. Your team will leave the session knowing with a deeper understanding and appreciation for diverse communication styles as well as how to leverage each approach and adapt their style to maximize impact and drive positive outcomes.
Strategic Planning
This isn’t just another corporate exercise – it’s a chance for you to engage your team in the planning and execution of the organization and an opportunity to align on strategic planning initiatives and actions.
As strategic planning facilitators, we guide organizations through the strategic planning process. We don’t dictate solutions to you, we enable your groups to co-create strategies based knowledge, experience and diversity. We create an environment conducive to open dialogue, innovation, critical thinking, and collaborative decision-making. This role is distinct in that it focuses on empowering your organization rather than imposing external ideas. Our award-winning facilitators are catalysts for transformative decision-making and planning. We do, however, offer guidance and insight into how other organizations operate and offer suggestions you may wish to implement. To us, strategic planning is more than just a single planning session. We work with our clients to help them navigate the strategic plan throughout the months and even years ahead. With our objective lens, we are well-positioned to offer insights into the strategic plan and execution tactics.

Facilitation FAQs
What is professional facilitation?
Professional facilitation is the structured guidance of group conversations, meetings, or planning sessions. A facilitator creates space for participation, clarity, and decision-making without taking sides. They design processes that help teams focus, resolve tensions, and move forward with shared understanding. The goal is alignment, not just discussion.
When should we bring in a facilitator?
Facilitators are most useful during high-stakes conversations, strategic planning, team alignment, or moments of change. If your team is stuck, misaligned, or preparing for something big, facilitation can provide structure and clarity. It’s also helpful after growth, leadership transitions, or internal tension. The earlier facilitation is integrated, the more effective the outcomes.
What kinds of teams benefit from facilitation?
Facilitation supports executive teams, cross-functional groups, nonprofits, scaling startups, and leadership teams in transition. Any group facing complexity, misalignment, or the need for shared decisions can benefit. Facilitation isn’t just for conflict—it’s also useful for innovation, planning, and cultural work. We tailor each process to your team’s needs and context.
How is facilitation different from consulting or coaching?
Facilitators guide process, not content. Unlike consultants, we don’t tell you what to do—we help your team figure it out together. And unlike coaching, facilitation focuses on group dynamics and shared outcomes. The goal is to help your team make decisions it owns, not deliver outside solutions.
What does a typical facilitation session include?
Most sessions include clear objectives, structured conversation formats, and visual tools to support thinking. A facilitator guides timing, flow, and participation so everyone can contribute. Sessions may involve strategy work, decision-making, role clarity, or cultural reflection. Each one is customized to the group’s goals.
How long are facilitated engagements
Engagements can range from a single half-day session to multi-month strategy or leadership processes. Many teams start with a 1–2 day intensive and follow up with quarterly or monthly check-ins. We’ll recommend a structure based on your goals, timeline, and team readiness. Flexibility is always built in.
Do you offer virtual facilitation?
Yes, we regularly facilitate sessions online using collaborative tools and platforms. Virtual facilitation is especially useful for remote, hybrid, or distributed teams. The experience is still interactive, structured, and outcomes-focused. We design sessions that maintain energy and connection even across screens.
Can facilitation help with conflict or tension?
Yes, facilitation is often used when unspoken conflict or misalignment is holding a team back. A neutral facilitator helps surface concerns safely and constructively. We don’t mediate personal disputes—we create process structures for trust, clarity, and shared purpose. Many teams leave feeling clearer and more aligned.
Do you provide strategic planning facilitation
Absolutely. Strategic planning is one of our core offerings. We guide teams through structured conversations to define direction, set priorities, and clarify ownership. Our facilitators support both the session itself and the work of turning strategy into action afterward.
Is facilitation useful for nonprofits or mission-driven teams?
Yes, facilitation works especially well for nonprofit boards, community groups, and mission-aligned teams. These groups often have complex stakeholder needs, consensus-driven cultures, and limited time. Facilitation creates the clarity and momentum needed to move forward with integrity and alignment. We’ve worked with dozens of mission-focused organizations across Canada.
What outcomes should we expect from facilitation?
You can expect better decisions, stronger alignment, and more clarity on what happens next. Teams often leave with a shared plan, clearer roles, and renewed trust. Outcomes vary by session type, but our goal is always traction—not just good conversation. You’ll leave with something useful.
How do we get started with Positive Impact?
You can start by reaching out to discuss your team’s needs and goals. We’ll set up a discovery call to understand your context and propose a facilitation approach that fits. From there, we’ll guide you through session design, logistics, and delivery. Contact us here to begin.
