Mana Shah
I have had the pleasure of working with Marike on two occasions as co-facilitator of the IAF Strengthening NGOs seminar - an international exchange of over 20 leaders from across the world. Marike holds the space beautifully for us as the facilitation team - from aligning our hopes for the design, to daily check ins, to ensuring we are doing the best we can to deliver the best learning experience possible for the participants. Marike's own sessions are so artfully designed - they just flow so naturally taking participants deeper and deeper and keeping them highly engaged in the whole process. I have learnt so much from her in terms of not just skills in facilitation but also my overall being - how I show up and hold the space for magic to unfold. Looking forward to more and more adventures together!
