Understanding Group Dynamics

Understanding Group Dynamics

Facilitate Stronger Teams. Build Deeper Connections. Lead with Confidence.

Every group has its own unique energy—and when harnessed well, that energy becomes unstoppable. Understanding Group Dynamics is a powerful training experience led by Certified Human Behavior Consultant Rick Hollering, who has over 20 years of experience building cohesive teams, training corporate and nonprofit leaders, and facilitating life-changing youth development programs.

Whether you’re leading a board, committee, classroom, or after-school program, your ability to engage people, manage diverse viewpoints, and facilitate meaningful decisions will directly impact your group’s success.


 

For Team Leaders, Boards & Organizations:

Group facilitation is a skill—not just a personality trait. This program is designed to help leaders confidently manage the relational and interpersonal dynamics that can either hinder or empower a team’s progress.

Core focus areas include:

  • Building trust and navigating conflict productively

  • Bridging generational and cultural gaps within a group

  • Engaging all voices in decision-making

  • Facilitating healthy, solution-focused conversations

  • Managing diverse viewpoints while maintaining alignment

From the boardroom to community coalitions, these tools will help you move your group from frustration to function.


 

For Youth Workers & Program Facilitators:

The most effective youth programs go beyond curriculum—they build life skills that stick. This version of Understanding Group Dynamics focuses on how to create engaging, retention-boosting environments where young people are equipped to lead and thrive.

Topics include:

  • Team building and peer connection

  • Active learning facilitation and group processing

  • Communication, decision-making, and problem-solving

  • Adapting to your unique environment

  • Strategies for recruiting and retaining youth

  • Supportive activities that amplify existing program impact
