I highly recommend Laurie Silverberg of Intellerate Consulting as a strategic planning facilitator.\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\nIt was a true pleasure to work with Laurie as she guided the Suzuki Association of Wisconsin through a strategic planning process. Having worked with other consultants in similar settings, I can confidently say Laurie stands out. Her preparation with our planning team was both thorough and efficient, enabling her to gain a deep understanding of our organization\u2019s history and to help us envision a strong path forward. The retreat she facilitated was well-structured and dynamic, incorporating a variety of group processes that engaged both introverts and extroverts. We left the experience with clarity, a detailed report, and a practical, step-by-step action plan for implementation.<\/em><\/p>\n <\/p>\n
