  • I would be happy to learn what theme you’re interested in and I can let you know if I have the experience to lead it.

    Please email me through this contact form and include the specifics of what you are hoping for.

  • I find that for a workshop to be effective it’s essential to learn about the target audience and to cater the workshop for that particular population. For this reason, I always take extra time to have one or two pre-workshop conversations with the convener to learn about their hopes and goals of the workshop so I can curate a workshop that will be engaging and informative, but also transformative for that particular group. The length of a workshop also is catered to the particular group and their goals.

  • Yes, if you are able to cover travel costs. Commitments are dependent on specific schedules and capacity.

    If you do not have a travel budget, but the partnership seems like a strong fit, I can talk through possibilities of coupling the workshop with another trip to the region.

  • Each workshop varies in expense depending on how much preparation will be needed. I also use a sliding scale based on the organization’s budget. To receive a quote, please email me by using the contact form here.

What People Are Saying

  • "Emily facilitated sessions on "Navigating Transitions" and "Navigating Culture Shock and Cross-Cultural Communication Differences" for our lay mission candidates in formation. Emily's wealth of experience and practical information is an asset to our extensive curriculum. Having served in a cross-cultural environment myself, her examples and advice resonated with my own experience. We look forward to working with Emily in the future."
