Revolutionize

Your Virtual Training

The NEW Design Imperative: WHY?
Greater retention, total involvement, and deep level learning!

The Holistic Integration of Design

Design and delivery are no longer dating, they’re in a relationship. Virtual design demands an understanding of how learning happens AND integrating virtual facilitation tactics into the design. It’s time to retire and replace traditional workbooks and facilitator guides. Contact TVF for the upgrades!

Revolutionary
Delivery

It is no longer about “speaker notes” and passive knowledge consumption. It’s about “speaker questions” and facilitation tactics that drives sustainable behavior and habit change.

As a facilitator, it’s about creating a thinking and learning environment.

Creating
Co-Responsibility

Just as design and delivery is evolving, so must the role of the participant. It’s about creating the understanding that they are not an audience, they are part of the process and expected to be accountable for their learning.

Meet The Founder

About Mary Oursler

I founded The Virtual Facilitator for two primary reasons.

The first reason was to revolutionize the design and delivery of virtual training, not to change it incrementally.

The second reason to put the learner at the center and forefront so that both the learner and the organization receive an ROI.

Drive results from the learner’s investment of time, the organization’s investment of resources.

-Mary

Design and delivery are no longer dating...

They are in a committed relationship.

Did you know that . . .

ONE ounce of honey can fuel a bee’s flight around the world?

TVF designs virtual programs that go fast and far with learning, not get bogged down with passive knowledge consumption.

Bees beat their wings up to 16,000 TIMES per minute, which is what makes the buzzing sound?

We build programs that are vibrant, interesting, challenging—not death by PowerPoint.

Still-edible, 3,000-year-old HONEY was found in King Tutankhamen’s tomb when it was opened in 1922?

At TVF, we are fanatically committed to designing learning that lasts well after the session ends and gets utilized on a regular, ongoing basis.

Services

Work with The Virtual Facilitator

Customized Evaluation

Dare To Get Better

“What Got You Here Won’t Get You There.”
– Marshall Goldsmith

Hit your pause button and reach new heights of facilitation and presenting through a customized evaluation and feedback.

Virtual Learning Intensive

See It To Believe It

“I never teach my pupils, I only attempt to provide the conditions in which they can learn.”
– Albert Einstein

The evaluations are good…did they actually learn or were they entertained by the delivery?

See for yourself the power and potential of virtual design and delivery.

Design Analysis

Leave Them Wanting More

“Good design is obvious. Great design is transparent.”
–  Joe Sparano

Make sure your sessions reflect the best practices, brain science, and current research about virtual design and learning.

Design learning that leads to behavior change; using the skills long after the session ends.

Are your participants just an audience?

Consider The Analogy Of A Symphony...

The facilitator is the conductor, the music is the content, where and who are the musicians? What if we start to consider participants as the musicians? AND…wait for it…ask people to evaluate THEIR participation and contribution to THEIR learning and success of the session.
