Helping organizations to grow and perform well has always been a passion of mine. As a seasoned professional Community Manager, I have work in an Executive Director role for different communities providing Boards the leadership they need to see their goals to realization. Personally, I have served in leadership roles with the following organizations:

• Scottsdale LINKS, Board of Directors
• Scottsdale Leadership, Board of Directors
• All City Scottsdale, Board of Directors
• GET Phoenix, Knowledge Council
• Junior League of Phoenix, Committee Chair

Through my training in Facilitation Methods with the Institute of Cultural Affairs and in Non-Profit Management with the ASU Lodestar Center for Non-Profit Management, I can help ensure structured and meaningful participation that is rich in substance and geared toward results and resolution.

Benefits of Facilitation

• Increased involvement by all participants
• Meetings guided by an objective third party
• Allows the group to focus on the big picture
• Sense of ownership of outcomes by the collective group

Services I offer include:

Board Retreats

Let me facilitate your next Board retreat and help you plan in advance to make sure your group spends their time focused and action driven. Pre-thinking materials and post work summary will be provided to your group as part of the retreat.

Retreats can range from a half day retreat to several days based on your needs. I work with you to custom tailor our time together so your retreat is as successful as you envision it.

Strategic Planning

The first step in every organization’s success is a solid strategic plan that outlines how to put the organization vision into action. I can help organizations big and small and will help you build your roadmap to success.

As part of the process we’ll address:

• SWOT analysis
• Identifying key result areas
• Creating SMART objectives
• Determining tactics and accountability

Consensus Building

Agreement is not always easy to obtain and meeting members can get easily frustrated when consensus can’t be reached and no one wants to compromise what is really important to them. With a focused consensus workshop I can help your group get that decision made fairly and quickly. The end result is satisfaction and ownership of the decision by all participants.
