Skillfully Guiding Group Process

Facilitation for Group &
Organization Transformation

Guiding Conversations, Not Leading

Our approach to facilitation is about guiding conversations, not leading them. We create a safe and supportive environment for individuals and teams to share, reflect, learn, and do their best thinking.  In today’s complex and rapidly changing world, creating spaces for deep thinking, open dialogue, and effective collaboration is not just important; it’s essential for progress. 

Encouraging Authentic Dialogue
We believe in the power of authentic dialogue. Our facilitation process encourages open and honest discussions, allowing participants to express their thoughts and feelings. This approach nurtures emotional intelligence, mutual understanding, and trust.

Stimulating Engagement and Critical Thinking
Our facilitation process goes beyond mere participation. It stimulates active engagement, catalyzes critical thinking, and fuels collaborative problem-solving. Participants are encouraged to think deeply and explore ideas from various angles.

Building Trust and Mutual Respect
Trust, openness, and mutual respect are the cornerstones of effective collaboration. Our facilitation process helps build and strengthen these vital elements among team members.

Our Ultimate Goal: Extraordinary Thinking
Our ultimate objective? To facilitate a transformative journey where individuals don’t just interact, but connect; where they don’t just participate, but contribute; and where they don’t just think, but think extraordinarily.  

We skillfully navigate the dynamics of group interactions, ensuring every voice is heard, every idea explored, and every insight valued. We believe in creating spaces that nurture diversity of thought, fostering innovative solutions and shared understanding.

Our facilitation process is a powerful catalyst for individual growth and collective progress. It stimulates active engagement, catalyzes critical thinking, and fuels collaborative problem-solving. All the while, it fortifies trust, openness, and mutual respect among team members.

Dr. Thulani

I’m Thulani DeMarsay, and for nearly three decades, I’ve worked at the intersection of leadership development, contemplative science, wellness, and technology and innovation. Over the past 25 years, I have consulted with leaders from diverse sectors across the United States and, more recently, in West and Southern Africa. My mission is clear: to help leaders and teams maximize effectiveness while honoring well-being. I firmly believe that our ability to be effective is directly tied to our emotional, spiritual, psychological, and physical health.

I earned my PhD in Human Development, with a concentration in Technology, Media, and Innovation. My dissertation research focused on contemplative leadership, exploring how reflective practices such as mindfulness, meditation, silence, yoga, and other practices build resilience in leaders and help them thrive during times of disruption. My research revealed how these practices enhance decision-making, emotional intelligence, and organizational well-being, equipping leaders with the tools they need to navigate complexity and foster both individual and organizational resilience. My concentration further explored how organizations can leverage technology to advance their mission effectively.

Time: 10:00 AM (EST), 1:00 PM (PST), 8:00 PM (SAST) Duration: 1 Hour
