Visual facilitation / graphic facilitation
Visual facilitation gives you the benefit of not just being excellently facilitated, you also get a visual overview; the bigger picture potentially covering all the complex data emerging throughout the process or project.
You get a full-on learning arena and a common visual language making it easy for everyone to understand and engage. This kind of involvement and commitment builds high motivation and ownership.

It is hard to do problem solving when just talking. To compare different ideas and information you have to make a display somewhere.

Your position
As a manager, project leader or internal consultant you can easily learn how to do simple visual facilitation yourself and then hire an external graphic facilitator if you need to engage yourself in the process or to be more neutral.
