La Ferme du Manoir, Chateau de Nyon

NotchUp training in association with JoAnne Freeman, creator of SwimUpstream, is pleased to announce an intensive one-day training course on The Art of Meeting Facilitation on 29 October at La Ferme du Manoir, Place du Chateau in Nyon Switzerland. This is a great opportunity to attend JoAnne’s flagship course, which has been delivered to global corporations in Asia and Europe for a number of years. Demand has grown for this training following a number of successful public sessions last year and NotchUp is very proud to make The Art of Meeting Facilitation available again.

These skills have proven effective in giving managers, scientists and professionals the ability to run short, productive and engaging meetings. There are clear benefits for companies, who find they waste far too much time on useless and tedious meetings, and also for facilitators whose careers are boosted by showing leadership skills in running highly focused and interesting meetings.

The training will take place in the heart of the medieval town of Nyon, beside a magnificent chateau overlooking the lake and the mountains. A beautiful setting, easy to access by train or car, for a top class professional training experience.
