I am a solutionist on a lifelong quest for more effective and impactful ways to address nature, climate, and social justice challenges. I set up Dialogue Matters in 2000 to facilitate better and fairer decisions that help people and nature flourish. I do this by delivering effective and ethical Stakeholder Dialogue, process design and facilitation in environmental contexts.
I am a problem solving and executive life coach accredited with the World Institute for Action Learning and the International Coach Federation. I have over 25 years of workplace experience in environmental science and management. I coach for the beauty of life, wonder of diversity and rewards of exploring.
