About Process
 Process refers to the way a discussion is happening, independent of the subject
matter or issue being talked about. Basically, process talks about how a group works
together. It includes how members talk to each other, how they identify and solve
problems, how they make decisions, and how they handle conflict. It takes into
account group dynamics, non-verbal messages, and situational elements.
When facilitator steer the process, he may use different tools and methods. In his
methods, there are tools and methods that diverge thinking, concept, assumption
and goals. This is divergent tool which is goal seeking. When Facilitator usually look
for goal oriented and focus, use convergent.
