OUR APPROACH TO

CONSULTATION AND FACILITATION

• RMC consultants are in demand for expert, results-based facilitation.

• Our consultants design and facilitate senior level strategy sessions and consultations for private and public sector clients at three levels of government - in a wide variety of areas ranging from federal law reform to transportation to housing to corporate governance.

• Our reports and recommendations arising from these sessions have resulted in significant policy and operational change for all our clients.

• RMC also trains facilitators to conduct effective, results-based consultation.

KEY PRINCIPLES

Our consultation process is guided by key principles which include:

• an open process
  • open to new issues, to new approaches, open and understandable to a wide range of interested stakeholders.

• innovative, responsive and cost-effective
  • streamlined in operations and management, capitalizing on partnerships, technology, and building on existing work.

• inclusive and multi-disciplinary
  • with a process that includes the widest and most appropriate range of consultation with key stakeholders.

• work "up front" pays dividends
  • fundamental to our success is that participants arrive fully briefed and focused on key issues. Doing this "up-front" work as part of a structured process ensures that our sessions move quickly beyond mere "brainstorming sessions" to ones which focus on results.
