Facilitation

I bring to facilitation a mind for the big picture, a positive, inclusive approach and an ability to distill insights from complex conversations.

I’ve facilitated meetings for a broad range of organizations: from public agencies and elected bodies, to community nonprofits, venture-backed startup businesses and publicly traded corporations. I leverage my breadth of organizational and situational understanding and experience as a communications executive to guide groups to clear and effective goals and decisions.

I’ll work with your leadership to identify a clear purpose and outcomes and carefully design an agenda that delivers the promised results. My facilitation approach emphasizes:

  • Thorough preparation
  • Constant mindfulness of meeting purpose, goals and agenda
  • Deep listening
  • Probing and clarifying questions
  • Participation by all
  • Respect for all
  • Accurate recording of comments and outcomes

Whether your meeting or retreat is a half-day or across multiple days, I’ll help you maximize your group’s valuable time together.
