“I got so much out of the training and I put the consensus building workshop to work all the time.
We do spread the word and sing your praises all the time and hope that it generates some more participants for you. I haven’t gone anywhere that people don’t LOVE the sticky wall and the
low-tech, hands-on feel of the methods. Best thing I ever did, going to Chicago last June.”
Lorien Castelle, Delta Project, New York

Participants will learn about the power of visual images in aiding communication in a group setting and ways to enhance their own facilitation and training through the use of simple images and designs. You do not need to be an artist to attend.

“Over the past 2 week, so many people have stopped me in the hallway to say thank you for your training. Several stated it was the best training they’ve ever had. Thank you for the amazing opportunity and bringing life to our agency! One person was inspired by your training to express a career change interest. Thank you for inspiring us from within to make positive change. I look forward to more collaborations and hopefully a long partnership!” County Health Manager, PH
