More than a hype: years of experience

Since 2004, Emilie van Rappard has been working on methods and techniques to work with large groups to unlock the core of new directions. As both strategist and facilitator, she has worked in various roles on a wide variety of issues for start-ups and multinationals, interest groups, and NGOs. Sometimes once, often for years on end. Her secret? A sharp mind, light humor, and a genuine curiosity for what connects, attracts, and sets groups in motion.
