The facilitation community, and particularly the graphic facilitation community, is feeling the loss of one of our great leaders, mentors and icons … Micheal Doyle. Mr. Doyle died January 29th in San Francisco. Michael was foundational in putting facilitation on the map, in terms of a separate and valued professional role. And was instrumental in… Read more »
Back from A-H Well Being Cruise
Ahhhhhhh. That is the sound of a contented woman back from two weeks at sea, cruising through the Hawaiian Islands. I attended one of Abraham-Hick’s cruises – where the cruise is combined with over 18 hours of Abraham/Law of Attraction seminars. Esther Hicks (pictured here) and her husband Jerry are the team who produce the… Read more »

The Power of Forgiveness
Happy New Year! Ahhhh. New years. My favorite special day of the year. Frankly I am not a big fan of the Xmas season. However I just love New Years. Putting away the past and moving towards the future. This time of year is just full of possibilities and promise. And frankly I think that… Read more »
Room with a View
Thankfully I don’t travel quite as much as I used to (as my practice is shifting more to phone work or people flying to Victoria to work with me in my studio). Throughout my career I have had some real highs and some real lows in terms of destinations and accommocations. Early on, when I… Read more »
Visual Bios
Alrighty then. Since starting this blog I have been wondering how to get larger visuals on it (I am the GRAPHIC coach after all … so it has been driving me nuts to be mostly limited to words on this medium). I just figured out that I can post photos on a Flickr account, and… Read more »
Kudos and Acknowledgements
Talking of passing the baton (see previous post) … several of my ‘mentees’ are really pushing the envelope in terms of their graphic skills. Strategy consultant Doug T from Virginia is doing history and vision maps with his architecturial design firm clients – and using graphics to explain globalization/flatworld concepts in presentations. HR Coach Shannan… Read more »
Passing the Baton and Expanded Trainings
As my consulting and coaching practice grows I am increasingly passing the baton on graphic recording and mapmaking work ( the work that I first began my facilitation career with and that is explained in my www.makemark.com site). Choosing instead to personally train others in these rare skills, so my experience doesn’t die with me… Read more »
The Law of Attraction and Interactive Graphics
As you can see from this site (and if you are a past or present client you certainly know) … I work visually with groups and individuals. Helping people literally SEE where they have been, where they are and where they would most like to go. Doing all sorts of belief work and planning work… Read more »
