There are a lot of opportunities to be really dynamic with the way that we’re doing our coaching work, and facilitating the future is one of the ways to do that. Today I’m joined by my friend and colleague, Chris Wallace Caldwell to break down this intersection between coaching and facilitations for you.

Chris has an extensive background in non-profit leadership, strategic planning, group facilitation, program development, and corporate social responsibility and she brings a particular skill in grasping the common elements of group work and the ability to synthesize a unified vision and focused path forward.
