Roxane White is a superb and strategic facilitator of challenging
meetings. From planning to execution to follow-up, she delivers remarkable results. Equally comfortable with elected officials and CEOs, she can instantly bridge the gaps between executives and frontline staff, community activists and even people who are homeless. She is the single best facilitator I have worked with.

Roxane was an incredible facilitator for our full day retreat. She was able to navigate very broad topic areas, with varying levels of expertise in our group, and bring us to agreements with tangible outcomes. She was patient and ensured all voices were heard but kept us moving to achieve our goals by the end of the day. Our members left feeling accomplished and motivated to act on the decisions we made together. We are grateful for her expertise and highly recommend her!
