Our Services
Facilitation & Consensus Building
We facilitate fact-based conversations and build consensus to advance ideas, break through barriers and understand what matters most to your work.
Build trust and make progress
Some conversations are too important to leave to chance. PSC has spent decades helping Michigan’s most consequential commissions, workgroups and advisory bodies navigate conflict toward agreement. From gubernatorial commissions to cross-sector collaborations, we understand high-stakes conversations and serious policy challenges. We design processes that bring the right voices into the room and keep the work moving forward.
The goal isn’t just to have a good meeting; it’s to move from competing priorities to durable consensus and a shared direction that leads to actionable next steps.
Capabilities include:
- Stakeholder and public engagement
- Facilitation of boards, commissions, workgroups and strategic convenings
- Coalition building and cross-sector collaboration
- Consensus building, conflict navigation and collaborative decision-making
“PSC at its best is nimble and able to support a complicated initiative and facilitate meaningful participation by a diverse group."
-Helen Taylor, State Director, The Nature Conservancy
