Facilitation & Hosting
Ranika's Philosopy
"Facilitation is like being the conductor of an orchestra. You understand each person's instrument—their voice, ideas, thoughts and feelings are essential to what's happening in the room. Individual participation adds to the collective value in that space."
As a facilitator, Ranika takes an "all in" approach to every event by getting the audience to go deeper and engage, enhancing the event's message and mission and keeping the event on time.
