Facilitation & Convening

team MEETINGS

Does your team need to have a specific conversation that would benefit from an external facilitator? Do you feel too “in it” to see a way through it? 

Through deep, active listening, I help clients identify their core question(s) and develop agendas that enable transparent dialogue.

Online meeting facilitation

Are you and your team experiencing intense Zoom fatigue? Do you find yourself struggling to maintain attention during long online meetings after a year of pandemic life? ME TOO! The fatigue is real — but there are ways to build an online gathering that can actually feel regenerative, intimate and energizing. I know because over the last 12 months, I’ve transitioned my practice online.

It starts right from the agenda design phase, and asking the question “what conversations can we ONLY have when we’re all together?” Are there ways we can minimize and optimize our time together online? 

Interactivity is key, including breakout conversations and shared documents or whiteboards, and can make the difference between yet another snoozefest and an engaging conversation with full team participation.

Honouring our physical bodies -- whether by having well-planned breaks, engaging in breathing and meditation together, or a spontaneous online dance-party -- is key to Zoom wellness.

If you want to ensure your online meeting gives, rather than drains, energy and gets the conversation bubbling, let’s talk!

CONFERENCES

Are you struggling to ensure your conference isn’t one of those disconnected affairs based on the speaker/audience dichotomy? Are you looking to deepen your community’s connection to one another and to the movement? 

Through an anti-oppressive organizing lens, I work with clients to identify the conversations and voices that need to be centered, and to connect these conversations in an agenda that builds a conference community rooted in bravery, transparency, compassion, and inspiration.
