Work with me to:

...reinvigorate workplace learning culture

...design powerful large and small group learning events and meetings

How I Do It.

Brain Based: I incorporate the latest neuroscience research into meeting and learning designs

Liberating Structures: I often uses these structures and am guided by these principles

Design Thinking: The Stanford model of Design Thinking greatly influences my thinking. I can teach and apply these methods.

Adult Learning: I know and apply the core principles of adult  orientations towards learning and help to develop metacognitive  and growth mindset awareness in everybody I work with. 

Inquiry and Coaching: Using the power of a well-timed, open-ended question to help guide your thinking, I support your best thinking.
