Helping Portland Think Local.

facilitation and training that inspires, educates, and empowers.

How can I help?

As a leader of a business, nonprofit, neighborhood group, local business association, or faith community, sometimes you need timely, cost-effective support. You don’t need overpriced consulting firm selling you a process system or a coach offering you motivational platitudes. 

Sometimes you just need new insights, a thought partner, or a group facilitator to help you and your partners to collaborate more effectively, solve problems, plan, or chart a path forward. Someone who can ask the right questions, look at ideas and data with an outside view and design a process to help inspire, educate and empower.  —someone who can see both the forest and the trees. 

I am glad to meet you. Now, how can I help?

“We would normally try to do our own facilitation, but it was becoming obvious we needed an outside perspective and expert facilitator. We would still be just talking about planning if we had not asked for Mark's help.” — Ann C.
