As design thinkers, our processes apply to more than interior design services. Design thought can be applied to systems, procedures, protocols, and other customer/client experiences. We are skilled in facilitation, business/organizational planning, stakeholder engagement, project leadership, and implementation. We work with clients all over Alaska to develop strategic roadmaps in dynamic and changing times. 

Strategic Engagement

“Michael and her team have facilitated several board retreats and community listening sessions for the Mat-Su Health Foundation. She sets the table so beautifully for people participating to be real, present, and have their voices heard. She listens deeply and can see the myriad of ways people understand the issue at hand or their nuanced concerns. She and her team have a way of carefully drilling down to the key nuggets that need to be discussed and refined so that progress can happen. And all this happens against a backdrop where values are affirmed, and ground rules are followed. We are grateful for her consultation, facilitation, and partnership in our work.”
