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
