1 definition by L. Miller
to facilitate and manipulate concurrently in order to ensure the facilitator's agenda is achieved by the end of a meeting or session.
The Board Chair facipulated the meeting by asking loaded questions that reflected her position on the issue being discussed. Therefore, no one voiced his or her contrary opinion on the issue and, instead, decided to support the Chair's position as it seemed the politically wise thing to do.
