“Amanda listened to everyone in our diverse coordination team and consistently ensured the active participation of every person in our strategy meetings. The challenges were to engage with participants came from very different backgrounds: power dynamics between funders, grantees, academics and activists, from the Global South and the Global North and speaking two languages in a virtual format. Amanda was able to maintain a flexible structure that kept us engaged an on time, creating a space for more organic listening.”

“Amanda has a style that is direct, kind and wise, that I have seen in meetings facilitated by her. She always integrates created ways of working that make meetings a source of pleasure, and this is why I contacted her to support us in the review of our Theory of Change.
Revising the Theory of Change is a process that is delicate and strategic, but it must maintain an open space for dialogue, motivation and play. Amanda achieved the balance between serious, technical work, our vision and “hippie” ways of working, and brought in creative games to help us get to know each other and bond from a more human place that is very necessary during the pandemic.”
