Consulting
 
    ...Turning your workshops, conferences into transformative experiences

Are you a speaker, facilitator or conference planner who wants to make a real impact on your audience?  Creating deep, transformative experience is a subtle and complex process that requires attention to many fronts simultaneously. The depth of experience your participants experience is dependent not only on your speaking or facilitation skills -- sound process design and the thought you put into logistics can either support or detract from the creation of a powerful 'space' or container.I can help you to shorten your learning curve and make your workshops or conferences more memorable by getting feedback on your speaking or facilitation skills, process design, and event logistics.  This page describes how...

Event Design Consultations
Whether you are designing a workshop, lecture series or international conference, the advance attention you pay to designing your participants' experience can make or break the event.  Marilyn is available to walk you through the advance stages of your event, paying special attention to the process arc of the work, and the logistics that will impact your capacity to attract participants, provide a quality experience, and ensure your bottom line.

Marilyn has over 20 years of experience designing a range of effective events - from board meetings, strategic retreats, roundtables, lecture tours and arts events to symposia and international conferences.  Her specialty is designing educational events that allow wisdom leaders, indigenous elders and leading visionaries a platform to discuss what we can do to understand our current challenges and to preserve the future of the planet.
Speaking & Facilitation Consultations
Does the growth of your transformative business depend on your getting your message across clearly and powerfully?  Do you want to take your speaking or facilitation skills to the next level so that you can strengthen your impact?  A consultation session with Marilyn will give you honest yet supportive and encouraging feedback - about both your strengths and the ways you can improve - so that you can become a stronger, more confident communicator.

In addition to her own extensive speaking and facilitation experience, Marilyn has designed detailed evaluation processes for an advanced speakers club, acted as a judge for speaking contests, and has coached and evaluated advanced speakers.
