Business Facilitation Services
Bring clarity to your organization’s mission and goals.
Hello, I’m Guillermo.
I bring into my work the insights and strategies I gained from my thirty years of management experience as mayor of Denver and in the engineering industry. I know how to bring people to consensus on a common mission.
Get buy in from all your employees in a fun, participatory way.
Consensus building is best done in a fun environment that promotes a joyful connection and appreciation from every person involved.
My facilitation methods prompt your workforce to recognize their individual and collective value and put an end to growth resistance while they reach for their personal greatest vision. Then we show them how these fit into your organization’s larger vision.
While it is important to focus on the what and why of an organization, it is also important to get buy in on the how.
This is done by helping you articulate the kind of work environment you want to create. This is important, because support for their organization happens for employees when they feel they can be themselves and are appreciated for their contribution. My facilitation style encourages both workforce and management to appreciate the role of the other so they may create a friendly work environment where people are free to share dreams, ideas and concerns.
Create an open atmosphere where everyone feels free to share dreams, ideas and concerns.
Improve the effectiveness of your organization.
My facilitation methods prompt your workforce to recognize that cooperation, support and heartfelt commitment to the organization’s direction is one of the greatest gift’s in one’s career.
Committed employees make a greater effort and are willing to go the extra mile to support their colleagues and management. Everyone longs to be proud of what they do and to be a part of a great organization. When your employees make this transformation, the sky is the limit for what your organization can accomplish.
Experience counts
Having spent decades building consensus among elected officials and community groups, boards and task forces, I know what it takes to bring people together for a common cause. From my experience in running large organizations, I am also aware what it takes to build a healthy work environment where everyone can thrive and produce their best. these are the talents I bring to the table as a facilitator.
My Latest Insights
You Cannot Find Fulfillment by Ignoring Your Highest Self
Until a few years ago, I believed being patient was for losers; winners made their own way. The proverb, “where there is a will, there is a way” had me convinced that—if I wanted something bad enough—I had to rely on my willpower to make things happen exactly as I wanted and in my timing. From my vantage point, this is what successful people did, they made things happen, obstacles be damned.
Pain Infuses Us to Make Changes
As I looked further for the existence of a Higher Power guiding me, I was not satisfied with the idea that choosing good thoughts would lead me to a greater connection with my highest, most authentic self. This seemed such a nebulous and unconvincing way to start a new path. If there truly was a Higher Power, then surely He/She would reach out to me in a way that left no doubt. I became the modern version of Thomas in the Bible who would not believe in Christ’s resurrection until he touched the nail wounds in Jesus’ hands. Such was the beginning of my search for personal messages from a Higher Power in the form of mystical experiences.
If a Higher Power is in Charge, then why is there Evil in the World?
I did not go easily down the path of accepting the notion that a Higher Power was in charge. If this was the case, then why is there so much evil in the world? Does this Higher Power justify all evil as experiences meant to develop our species?
