I help groups address complex public problems and conflicts in ways that strengthen communities and organizations when other forces are pushing them apart. After retiring from my salaried general faculty position in July 2025, I work part-time on a variety of collaborative change projects involving environment and land use, water, historic landscapes, community development, education, and health.
