MARSHALL'S BEEN PLAYING IN THE SANDBOX!
The Sandbox is a space developed by BarometerXP to enable trainers and facilitators who use play-based techniques in their work to convene and hone their craft.
Marshall led a successful board retreat for a nonprofit organization in Suburban Maryland. The focus was strategic planning, and it included a range of distinctive activities and energizing moments such as "Answer With Your Feet" and the "Question Formulation Technique!"
Experience and expertise in these three critical areas:
-
Philanthropy and Grantmaking
-
Nonprofit Management
-
Field Building
