"Darnell has been an invaluable partner to CareerRise, helping us create spaces where our board and stakeholders can move from big ideas to concrete strategies. His facilitation style brings clarity and focus, while also encouraging authentic dialogue and collaboration, and even more valuable is his ability to synthesize and articulate a breadth of ideas into a clearly articulated parth forward. During our retreat, he balanced flexibility with structure—navigating changing demands on the agenda seamlessly while still guiding us toward our goals. His insights throughout the planning process added real depth, and his steady support kept the group focused and engaged. Thanks to his care, professionalism, and thoughtful approach, the retreat was both productive and clarifying, leaving board members aligned and activated around long-term sustainability."
"Working with Darnell was a seamless experience from start to finish. From modernizing and clarifying our organizational bylaws to guiding the design and facilitation of our annual board retreat, he consistently helps us balance thoughtful discussion with clear decision-making. Darnell has been a trusted partner to the Airport District, and I’d recommend him to any organization looking for a strategic partner and a skilled and thoughtful facilitator."
