How I Engage
• First, I engage a representative group of your constituents in a free, facilitative discussion to identify factors which enhance and hinder the work and mission.
• Second, I provide a free white paper summary.
• If you see no value for further engagement, you owe nothing!
• If needs are identified, you can resource them internally, or I will provide you a proposal to strategically assist as a neutral.
