As part of the development of Ausgrid's 2024-2029 regulatory submission, two randomly selected customer panels deliberated over a collective 10 full days. The panels, facilitated by MosaicLab and Gauge Consulting, considered how Ausgrid should look to the future while remaining fair to customers today. Ausgrid's three-year engagement process allowed customers to influence what Ausgrid spends customers money on, giving them a rare insight and influence over the cost of electricity, an issue that directly impacts the lives of everyday people.

Facilitation is a practice, and that means facilitators never stop learning, no matter how experienced they are. We’re constantly working to refine our skills, and we’re committed to sharing our knowledge with others. To honour International Facilitation Week, four of our facilitators are sharing techniques anyone can try out. Give them a go next time you’re involved in an interaction or group conversation, even if you don’t normally think of yourself as a facilitator.
