• Facilitation

    Dynamic team experiences for staff teams and boards, designed to achieve your organization's goals. Whether stepping into the next level of leadership development or navigating a complex conflict, facilitation creates an environment of empowerment, collaboration, and communication.

  • Training & Workshops

    Creative, meaningful experiences for your organization to learn and grow. Your team will leave their sessions with more clarity, alignment, and actionable solutions, fostering a culture of understanding and resilience through whatever you are navigating next.

Facilitation

Strong teams, top-level decision-making, and a thriving culture happen when team members feel welcome and heard. I work with the group to make sure all voices have space, that necessary challenging conversations are uncovered, and that what’s unsaid and uncommunicated rises to the surface. I create opportunities for deepened relationships, thoughtful decisions, and forward action.

What’s Included

  • Custom-designed facilitation for your events, retreats, or meetings 

  • High-level, flexible, equitable, fun facilitation aiming to achieve your outcomes.

OPTIONAL

  • Organizational or team scan

  • Sure People Prism or other assessment for all or select team members
