Anyone can be a men’s group facilitator: the role of the facilitator isn’t to be a therapist, coach or counselor or to give wise advice. The role is to get people talking and sharing different perspectives and opinions in a non-judgmental way.

You don’t even have to be male! And you could use these skills to run mixed groups or women’s groups.
