Groupaya We help groups more skillfully work together to create their desired future.

We’d like to see the phrase “It’s lonely at the top” become a quaint phrase from the past, from a world where leaders shouldered the burden of their organization’s success alone. We are working to create a world in which leaders learn how to activate the intelligence, creativity, and commitment of the groups they lead. We help leaders and their teams to experience the gift of truly sharing respons

ibility. At Groupaya, we want everyone we work with — clients, partners, and associates — to get better at tapping into the intelligence and creativity of groups. We help individuals and groups to think bigger about what is possible, work together to turn their visions into reality, and develop the skills and mindset for continued success. Our name “Groupaya”, which is a combination of “group” and “upaya” (Sanskrit for “skillful means”), embodies this purpose.

Northern Californians think Southern Californians want to drain it dry. Southern Californians don't even know where the Delta is, much less why it's important.
