I wish you good luck tomorrow with your event and wish you good health indeed! I myself am working for the next two days with a facilitator who was able to step in at the last minute to cover for Lizzie who found out she couldn't travel. Hurrah for co-facilitators!Gillian Martin Mehershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03248182877694221203noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35538676.post-11376146713544541062013-02-25T16:02:33.478+01:002013-02-25T16:02:33.478+01:00Wise and timely advice!

Today I am preparing to stand up tomorrow in front of 50 people, who have flown in from all over the world, for their week-long global research consortium gathering. Last time I worked with this group was this time last year. On that occasion, in the middle of a workshop, I had leave hastily for the bathroom. I shall spare you the details, but suffice it to say that I did not return that day, or the next. Fortunately I was able to whisper to my co-facilitator as I raced to the door 'could you take over for a minute?', and he was able to take over for the remaining day and a half! I was in bed for a week after that, but was delighted to hear afterwards how complimentary the group had been on our teamwork. I am sure we are all hoping it doesn't happen again this year...Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18096267606955267774noreply@blogger.com
