Our trainings and one-on-one coaching are based on over two decades of experience of simplifying the message. We can help you convey technical information in a straightforward and comprehensive way, giving your project an opportunity for greater impact. We offer 1-, 2- and 3-day sessions custom designed to your organization’s unique needs and circumstances. Download the Trainings We Offer or see an Overview.
Successful meetings, workshops and events rarely happen by chance. Our professional team of facilitators helps ensure success through careful research, planning and design. From there, we bring our well-oiled facilitation skills to guide group conversations and efforts that achieve consensus on priority actions to move important issues forward.
We help build public outreach processes and products that engage citizens and businesses so that projects have the public’s support and buy-in right from the beginning.
We guide public, private, tribal and non-profit organizations through thoughtful, engaging, and fun planning processes that build relationships and advance important efforts.
We are experienced at stakeholder mapping to identify essential stakeholders for key topics and issues. We then design processes that engage them appropriately to ensure voices are heard and key entities are included.
We translate from science into English by working with scientists, technical experts and resource managers to communicate technical information that is meaningful and actionable for decision-makers, planners and the public.
We design workshops that deliver. How? By focusing on the key ingredients: a solid outcome-oriented agenda, detailed preparation, seamless orchestration, and comprehensive follow-up.
