Hi, I’m Rebecca. I’m a masterful integral facilitator, strategist and coach, co-creator of Integral Facilitator®, and the Founder of Ten Directions. For over thirty years, I have been facilitating and inspiring others to practice facilitative leadership and meet the challenges of a wide range of cultural, systems and social issues. I am one of two world experts in Integral Facilitation®.

My interest in facilitation and leadership dates back to childhood. At an early age, I remember being fascinated by how people got things done together. Witnessing how actively involved my parents were in our larger community, I consistently found myself wondering, “What happens in those conversations where the adults are talking, and what is it that ‘grown-ups’ do to make things happen?” 

The curiosity of a young inquisitive mind planted the seeds for a lifelong interest and exploration around leadership and a passion for discovering different ways individuals can create a more positive impact through working better, together.

After 30+ years working with leaders and organizations around the globe in literally tens of thousands of different meetings, I noticed a consistent trend. Organizations that called on me were struggling because (1) their leaders had never actually been taught the facilitative skills to effectively communicate, collaborate and confidently empower their teams and (2) because individuals lacked a proper role model and the “meeting know-how” they needed to work together towards their shared vision.

Time and time again, I saw large initiatives on the brink of collapse – and folks struggling to understand where it all went wrong. And I realized that one of the best places to diagnose organizational challenges was by assessing its meeting culture. 

That’s why I created “21 Days to Meeting Mastery,” because even though most meetings feel draining and directionless, I believe they can become the crucial place for us – in this hybrid world of work – to create more thriving relationships, more trust and creative contributions. Meetings can be elevated to be gatherings where people work together through their differences to achieve more together than they could ever do alone. 

I’ve helped leaders in Fortune 500 companies, public sector organizations, start-ups, non-profits, and initiatives of all kinds, discover the transformative power of collaboration and what becomes achievable when we are willing to work together through our differences. 

And now, with my Ten Directions team and this new course, we can help you catalyze inspired meeting culture that brings your shared vision and values to life.
