Facilitation, Team Coaching, & Consulting

Facilitation

Sometimes the stakes are high and positive results are necessary. Other times, you know that simply having a third-party facilitator will make the meeting work better.

We design and facilitate crucial meetings and retreats that create full inclusion and engagement, productive conversations about different points of view, and lasting decisions. We work with the following types of meetings and retreats:

Decision-making sessions
Strategic planning cycles
Partnership and/or coalition development
Planning and launching cross-functional initiatives
Policy planning and deployment
Design thinking processes
Action learning teams
Conflict resolution
Assessment
Agile meetings

We take care of the process so you can focus on leading your team and contributing your expertise.

Team Coaching

We work one-on-one and with groups to grow skills and increase groups’ ability to resolve tension and create more effective communication among team members. We focus on helping groups apply newly learned skills within the workplace. When we work with groups, outcomes include:

Increasing trust in the team
Enabling different views to be heard and conflicts to be handled effectively
Moving from toxic to clean communication that facilitates discussion of difficult and challenging issues
Reconnecting and re-energizing team relationships and alignment around a common purpose.

Conflict Consulting

Occasionally, complex, highly-charged issues emerge on a team or within an organization that can’t be resolved easily. Allowing issues to fester causes long-term damage to the organization and interferes with your good work.

We can help. Our Deep Democracy certified consultants bring the tools and processes needed to help groups through tricky problems, emotional issues, and seemingly intractable conflicts.

My experience with Maya and her Deep Democracy approach was phenomenal. My colleague and I were finally able to clearly communicate and voice our concerns in a way that was productive and helped us rise to a new level of leadership. Under Maya’s direction, I felt as though I was heard, and we were, in even one session, able to resolve many issues. I strongly endorse Maya’s approach; it simply works and allows for open, honest work environments. – Dr. AJ Eckert, Anchor Health
