We adored our time with Diana at the Squamish Lil’wat Cultural Centre. She helped design and facilitated our strategic planning leadership sessions, where we distilled our 10 year plan in to a more actionable 2 year view. Diana approached the work openly and warmly, taking care to understand individual team members and the nature of our work. Everyone had a voice and we came together to story tell and envision our future, together. We look forward to partnering again, and recommend her for her high impact, and intuitive and approachable style.

Diana has an exceptional talent for designing engagement processes that encourage ongoing dialogue among diverse stakeholders. She has the ability to translate strategic direction into clear, implementation-focused action plans, ensuring momentum across key initiatives. Most importantly, she has the ability to facilitate groups toward consensus and shared ownership. Her professionalism and steady presence have been instrumental in advancing Metro Vancouver’s destination management priorities. I would confidently recommend Diana to any organization seeking a seasoned facilitator and strategic program partner capable of navigating complex stakeholder environments with integrity and effectiveness.

Diana establishes a relaxed and open environment that encourages dialogue while effectively addressing complex and often serious issues affecting the communities within the tourism region.

You designed a virtual experience that still made space for connection, insight, and collaboration. It was informative, it was engaging, and it struck the EXACTLY the right tone—thoughtful and forward-looking, while grounded in the realities VCM communities and partners are navigating.

Diana is a talented and highly professional brand and marketing consultant. Our engagement with her brought out thoughtful insights and impactful results. I would recommend Diana for any business needing brand development or marketing strategy.

Her work has helped unify staff around a common purpose which we can now use to more clearly and consistently express who we are to the world. Thank you so much!

I was inspired by Diana’s commitment to our organization and our community at the time of the pandemic. She quickly was able to shift strategies from what we had planned, to what we needed at the time.
