Education + Facilitation

Education
Educating others is key when working on complex topics for which group decisions must be made. My work tends to be on more specialized topics, and therefore, I acknowledge the need for education as a starting point.  I have taught high school students about the range of professional options in the field of transportation, and I have taught transportation professionals about integrating the needs of the transportation-disadvantaged more to their work.  Additional topics include transportation for emergency management, regional transit planning processes, mobility management, and lessons learned from projects.
Facilitation
Facilitation skills are as critical as education when working with groups on decision-making and/or consensus building.  I structure discussions keeping in mind the following: exploration, focus areas, and action items.  I enjoy the process of facilitating productive conversations towards specific results.  At a larger scale, I see facilitation as helping groups understand problems and find solutions.
