Читать книгу The PD Book - Elena Aguilar - Страница 29

We hope you're getting excited about what's in this book. In each chapter, we'll dig into one of the habits and provide you explicit instruction on how to practice it. We'll also unpack the beliefs that underlie the habit, and we'll help you see how the larger context you're in might impact how you practice the habits.

In the process of exploring the seven habits, we include stories from our own work, both our successes and our challenges. We've both been designing and delivering PD for many years, and we share our journey with you so that you can see that we, too, have struggled and that we've changed. We hope you'll see yourself in our stories—in our struggles and our growth—and that you'll feel validated and be inspired to continue refining your facilitation skills.

Some features to anticipate:

 “Tips and Tricks” ideas that you can do immediately that can have outsized impact. You'll find these in boxes in each chapter.

 Mid‐chapter opportunities called “Pause and Process” when the content is dense and we know you'll benefit from a midpoint reflection.

 End‐of‐chapter “Pause and Process” prompts to help you reflect on the whole chapter.

 A short list of key points to remember also at the end of the chapter.
