The Facilitators
Nancy Dixon
Nancy Dixon works with organizations to create conversations where knowledge transfer/sharing happens, where knowledge is created, where innovation arises. She believes trust is the bridge on which knowledge travels between people so she focuses on ways to create trust and a safe space for conversation, whether online or face-to-face.
Nancy helps groups in organizations have more productive conversations to address on-going problems or to more effectively share their knowledge, whether those conversations are in a team meeting, a conference setting or the retrospect of a project. The key is not a better meeting agenda, it is in creating an environment where members feel safe to offer ideas or layout concerns. She designs gatherings where trust is prevalent.
