Bojing is the facilitator for a conflict resolution group. He has a headache and is in a really bad mood. He is not sure that he can manage facilitating the group today, but it is too late to cancel the meeting. What is the best solution?
Answer
A
Bojing should go ahead and facilitate the meeting—his mood will not impact the group.
B
Bojing should resign as facilitator because he is clearly not up to the job.
C
Bojing should explain his situation and ask one of the group’s strong members to facilitate.
D
Bojing should hold the meeting and come up with a plan that does not require interaction.
Explanation
A facilitator’s mood and ability to stay calm can affect how safely and productively the group handles conflict. Since Bojing feels unable to facilitate well and the meeting cannot be canceled, he should be honest about the situation and ask a capable group member to lead instead. This is a practical solution for today; it does not mean he must resign permanently.
