Collaborative Planning
I am an insightful and high energy collaborative strategist; a world class facilitator who has served as a trusted advisor to hundreds of mission-driven organizations in Canada and internationally for more than 20 years. I bring intellect, enthusiasm and varied experience in strategy development and collaborative leadership to my speaking, writing and mentoring. I am a skilled communicator, with a particular gift for helping leaders make wiser decisions faster.
I provide planning and governance support to CEOs and Boards of Directors; strategic analysis to social and health policy makers; multi-stakeholder consultation processes to governments; training in various collaborative skills to teams, and strategic coaching to leaders. Let me leverage my experience as a speaker and mentor for your team.
Even in uncertain times – perhaps especially then – we need a plan.
I’ve been working in collaboration with 17 other authors on What The Hell Do We Do Now?: An Enterprise Guide to COVID-19 and Beyond — a book that explores the tools and frameworks that can help you and your organization navigate and emerge from crisis in better shape than when you entered it.
