Welcome

We live in a climate of perpetual change, complexity and challenge. The organisations most likely to succeed in this environment are the ones who recognise that the best solutions are those their employees, customers or stakeholders engage in and own. They realise that passive consultation is inadequate and that people should have the opportunity to be heard and actively participate. Harnessing the potential of groups is the role of the facilitator. Group facilitation requires an understanding of group dynamics and the power of diversity, a respect for people and the skills to help groups achieve their best thinking.

David Burnby has worked with a diverse range of statutory bodies, partnerships, community groups and private sector companies facilitating consultation exercises, away days, visioning exercises, public meetings and workshops. In whatever setting, David Burnby and Associates offer freelance facilitation services that enable groups to reach their maximum potential and achieve sustainable solutions.

“David was commissioned by us to help design and facilitate a stakeholder workshop as part of the consultation process to formulate a Local Economic Growth Initiative (LEGI) bid. We were delighted with the event which was professionally facilitated with clear briefings and timings were spot on. I am happy to recommend him to others.”

“David has advised and assisted us on community and stakeholder engagement as part of the Acorns neighbourhood management initiative. He has handled meetings really well, left residents enthused and keen to get involved and completed some excellent work advising on appropriate governance structures. The feedback from all quarters has been excellent and I have no hesitation in recommending him to you.”
