I help groups of people organize themselves. You can hire me to facilitate your next big meeting, plan and run your next (virtual) offsite, help your team work more smoothly and productively and predictably, or knit you something warm.
I’m trying to write down everything I’ve learned helping teams work together. How can we compensate for the universal cognitive bias to ignore our own cognitive biases?

For fun I like to make little programs, visualize data, and build odd furniture and electronic gadgets:3
