"It can be tempting to think that because we’ve run meetings that it’s easy to facilitate. Working with Catherine helped me realize the nuances of facilitation - from moments in a workshop to moments beyond the workshop. I recommend anyone hoping to develop a practice of being more human centered within their organization collaborate with Catherine."
