He will help you transform your life & business into a happier and more successful place to be. Some of the most fun and productive times in my life have been working with Steven.”

–Robert Dickman, First Voice, http://www.first-voice.com/

His knowledge of Systems Thinking is thorough and he knows how to make these skills accessible to others in a fun way. He recently coached a team of professionals from a number of agencies in the formation of a think tank with great results. Steve’s strengths are in the wealth of tools and resources at his command, process design, facilitation, and his cutting edge knowledge of practices and technologies for inquiry.”

–Sam Watson-Alvan, Washington Department of Health

“Steve’s passion for encouraging meaningful dialog is clear. He takes much time framing questions, collecting supportive materials, and preparing space so that others feel welcome.
