Toronto District School Board:

“We would highly recommend Mr. Church for facilitation work with other groups and organizations dealing with challenging issues and the need to develop harmony in their decision-making around difficult issues.”

Canadian Cancer Society:

“As a facilitator David was calm and confident in moving us through the process and yet flexible and adaptable when he needed to be. He was very sensitive to the dynamics of the room and helped people truly have dialogue. Lorna's role in quickly getting results up to the whole group and their obvious trust that she would capture their comments in a neutral way was so important.”

Calgary Board of Education:

“David has guided us through challenging issues, always keeping us focused on our session goal while still managing to maintain an openness to new ways of attaining that goal. David used humour and poetry to maintain a light atmosphere in our sessions — very conducive to productive times together.”
