My mission

Many Councillors are trapped in high-conflict situations and bitter disputes that pit one person against another. This hinders progress, and spreads negativity. It's conflict for the sake of conflict. But it doesn’t have to be this way.

I help you transform conflict into collaboration to foster civility in your Council
