I help build trust and capacities within and outside the organisational boundaries, offering support to:

• Design and facilitate strategic events, e.g., membership workshops, AGMs, international gatherings

• Design and host meaningful conversations, e.g., World Cafés, broad consultations

• Facilitate and enhance learning processes

• Contain and manage group dynamics

• Strengthen mechanisms and processes of cooperation and effective communication between multiple entities and members

• Create and host safe spaces to explore collective intelligence, expand on diffused leadership and boost sense-making.

I also design and facilitate team building and retreats, mostly in the flow of team development interventions, but also as separate occasions. In both cases, my design is conceived in a systemic view, and intended to help the transition between playful activities and participants’ back-home working reality.

My clients can fully rely on my solid expertise and worldwide experience in building trust and capacities of people, teams and organisations. They appreciate:

my capacity to help people grow and processes develop, without them almost noticing it

my deep listening attitude and practice

my silence-holding skills, as a great added value to them in my facilitation approach

my capacity to help ‘voiceless’ people - whose opinions may be at risk not to be considered in the organisational life - speak up.

People feel safe when talking and working with me and with others under my facilitation:

I listen deeply to their storytelling, pick the most meaningful parts - both in terms of desires and defensive patterns - and provide clear and simplified messages that can be more easily handled.

I use myself as a dynamic tool of reflection and diagnosis and I’m easy to follow when reporting back, by making more accessible both emotions and complex and technical reasoning.

My consolidated practice is ‘humble inquiry’: I’m genuinely interested and attentive to how people interpret their different roles, in the contexts and systems in which they live and work.

My reflective experience of connection to diverse contexts in poor countries strengthened my approach to use the resources available in ‘a sustainable rather than an exploitative manner’ (Long, S. 2016).
