SessionLab’s State of Facilitation project holds up a mirror to the world of facilitation providing inspiration, information and insight to anyone practicing facilitation around the world.
To help spread the word about the survey and report, we’ve prepared a promotional kit with assets you can use on social media, blogs and elsewhere.
You’ll find these resources below. Have a request for another resource or would like to collaborate? Get in touch at state-of-facilitation@sessionlab.com.





Facilitation is often described as powerful, transformative, and essential, but these claims are not always easy to substantiate.
As organizations face increasing pressure to justify time, budget, and attention, facilitators are being asked new questions about impact. What did their intervention change, why did it matter, and how can the impact be demonstrated?
The 2026 State of Facilitation Report turns its focus to these questions. Based on a global survey of facilitators working across roles, sectors, and experience levels, the report examines how impact is currently understood, measured, and communicated in practice. It highlights common patterns, emerging practices, and persistent challenges, alongside reflections from experienced practitioners.

This year we are zooming in on the topic of impact. How are the effects of facilitated sessions and other interventions measured, assessed and communicated? What can we learn about follow-up that will help us share the power of facilitation and, ultimately, deliver real-world results?
