Leadership Through Personal Change - Facilitation, Part 2

A TEAM APPROACH.
Learn how the Leadership Through Personal Change project used community based focused facilitation to develop goals and achievement of those goals. Watch how CAC members used person-centered facilitation and leadership training to create their personal and professional goal achievement. Hear about effective facilitation strategies and those that did not work.

See how Lori took charge of her team meeting. "I was prepared and had a good team meeting." Lori was frustrated that other people ran her team meetings. Watch Lori use Think-Plan-Do to find out how she could take more control over her meetings, have a plan, and be respected. Today, Lori explains her expectations for how she wants her meetings to happen, and they now focus on her plan.
The California Department of Developmental Services (DDS) Consumer Advisory Committee (CAC) created a series of 15 videos and corresponding PDF self-help guides called Leadership Through Personal Change. These videos and guides reflect the CAC mission, "My Life, My Way". The CAC provides advocacy and strategies that increase community inclusion, professional development, employment and business development opportunities for people with developmental disabilities and their families.

The CAC uses THINK-PLAN-DO as a method for decision making and goal realization. All CAC videos and guides are researched and field tested throughout California. Results include authentic outcomes, useful work plans and actions that lead to success. Produced and facilitated in partnership with the Board Resource Center, all materials are created to make complex ideas simple, and provide strategies for people to customize person-centered plans.

The CAC has sponsored or co-produced additional videos viewable on YouTube using search word: cac leadership. Additional advocacy tools and publications that provide insight on legal rights and strategies are available on the CA DDS Consumer Corner website: www.dds.ca.gov/consumercorner/publications.cfm

Board Resource Center is about Making Complex Ideas Simple. We take hard to use and understand ideas and develop meaningful training, facilitation, publications and new media that create avenues for people to live quality lives in their chosen communities as they define them. Strategies include plain language, graphic design, community involvement and testing. Focus areas include government agencies, non-profit organizations, advocacy groups and service providers internationally. Purpose is to develop leadership, accessible media and tools that reflect the interest, need and will of those they serve.
