What does it mean to be recognised globally as a professional facilitator?

For me, becoming a Certified Professional Facilitator was a powerful challenge to hold my practice to a higher, globally recognised standard of excellence.

Through my journey, I have experienced first hand the impact of facilitation in aligning project teams around shared objectives.

In today’s world, facilitation is no longer just a "nice-to-have" skill—it is a critical capability for leaders, consultants, and teams navigating complexity and change. Pursuing certification through the IAF is a proven way to grow your impact, credibility, and confidence.

If you're ready to challenge yourself, expand your professional practice, and join a global network of certified facilitators, the upcoming IAF Certified Professional Facilitator assessment in Geelong, Australia, offers an excellent opportunity to take that next step.

Taking place just before the IAF Oceania Conference 2026, the assessment offers an opportunity to validate your expertise, strengthen your professional credibility, and connect with facilitators from across the region and beyond.

Stage 1 application deadline: 12 June 2026

In-person assessment event: 12–13 October 2026 | Geelong, Australia

🤝 Collaboration is where real client impact happens.

This week was a strong example of that in action, as I collaborated with Kate Wright to explore Strategic Planning, brand positioning, and marketing strategy — all focused on better aligning to client needs.

Together, we worked with a group of leaders and stakeholders to unpack future direction, member experience, and opportunities for growth.

What stood out most:
✨ People leaning in with honesty and openness
✨ Diverse perspectives lifting the quality of thinking in the room
✨ Space created for ideas that don’t usually get voiced
✨ A shared commitment to doing things better, not just differently

A big thank you to @ Kate Wright from @ Plump Marketing for partnering in both the design and facilitation of this session. Your strategic marketing and branding expertise and your ability to draw insights from the room added real depth and impact to both the process and the client outcomes. 🙌

Collaboration between different facilitator skill sets creates richer conversations and stronger outcomes for clients.

Do you need to turn plans into action?

Every business owner and corporate team knows the frustration: hours of planning, strategy sessions, and brainstorming, yet little seems to get executed. The gap between planning and action is one of the most common challenges organisations face.

Why Planning Fails to Turn Into Action?

💼 From a corporate perspective:
Many organisations struggle because plans are not trackable or regularly reviewed. Teams are often excluded from the planning process, resulting in low buy-in. Unclear or shifting roles and responsibilities mean that priorities slip through the cracks. Without ownership, follow-up, and clear accountability, even the best plans can stall. This highlights the importance of clarity and ownership in turning plans into results.

👩‍💼From a business owner’s perspective:
For entrepreneurs, the problem often begins with having no written plan at all—everything exists only in the owner’s head. Mistaking busyness for progress, neglecting strategic thinking, and trying to do everything alone can prevent real growth. Avoiding difficult decisions and running the business reactively keeps goals vague and progress slow.

Why the Certified Professional Facilitator Credential Matters More Than Ever!

In an increasingly complex and fast-moving world, the ability to guide groups toward clarity, alignment, and action is a critical leadership skill. Professional facilitation is no longer a “nice to have”—it’s a core capability for organisations navigating change, strategy, and stakeholder engagement.

For those serious about honing this craft, becoming a Certified™ Professional Facilitator (CPF) through the International Association of Facilitators (IAF) represents a globally recognised benchmark of excellence.

Why Certification Matters

1. Global Credibility and Recognition
2. Mastery of Core Competencies
3. Professional Differentiation
4. Access to a Global Community
5. Increased Client Confidence and Opportunities

🌿 Facilitating Collaboration for the Environmental Sector in WA 🌿

We recently had the privilege of facilitating an Industry and Government Roundtable for a government department in Western Australia.

Over 4 hours, Marc Senders and I guided 45 industry and government stakeholders through a structured, solutions-focused discussion. The roundtable fostered open dialogue, strengthened relationships, and built trust between agencies and industry.

The benefits of bringing industry and government stakeholders together are clear:
• Diverse perspectives and experiences are shared, enhancing understanding of challenges and opportunities.
• Collaborative problem-solving leads to practical, actionable insights.
• Relationships and trust are strengthened, supporting smoother coordination and decision-making in the future.
• Greater alignment across agencies and industry promotes efficiency, consistency, and informed engagement in complex processes.

We excel at meaningful collaboration—helping teams navigate complexity, align perspectives, and create actionable outcomes. If you’re looking to drive engagement and tangible results in multi-stakeholder projects, let’s connect!

🚀 New Article Alert: Why Consulting Is Becoming a Strategic Must-Have for Perth Businesses

Perth’s business landscape is rapidly evolving — from tech and professional services to advanced manufacturing and global trade — and with that comes greater opportunity and greater complexity.

In my latest article, “The Strategic Advantage: Why Consulting Is Essential for Perth Businesses”, I explore why professional consulting is no longer a luxury, but a strategic advantage for organisations of all sizes.

📌 In this piece I dive into how consulting can help Perth businesses to:
• Navigate change and unlock clarity in decision-making
• Improve business performance and operational efficiency
• Build resilience through strong risk and project management
• Strengthen teams, culture and stakeholder alignment
• Harness strategic planning for long-term success
…and much more.

Whether you’re a startup scaling up, a small business seeking efficiency, or a larger organisation managing transformation — the right consulting partner can make all the difference.

Enjoyed being the guest on the chat with Liz Del Borrello at a Leaders Lobby event last night.

We explored Planning with Purpose: How to turn a plan into performance – a topic that resonates with many leaders and professionals who find planning easy, but ex*****on challenging.

I shared practical insights drawn from my facilitation work across hundreds of workshops, alongside Liz, who offered a grounded and thoughtful perspective on planning without panic.
