My Philosophy
Relationships are the foundation.
Centering relationships consistently delivers strong, enduring, positive results
Setting agreements to listen and seek to understand new perspectives. Listening with our eyes, ears, and heart to feel and find out what is most important to folks who are different than us. This is diversity in action.
Creating space for other cultural ways of being, communication styles, values and decision-making processes. Recognizing and acknowledging the inherent dignity and profound uniqueness of every person in the space. This is inclusion in action.
Calling out inequities in the moment and engage courageously in conversations around challenging topics. Every engagement becomes the space to learn and grow together. This is equity in action.
Client’s Review
"There are facilitators that can facilitate, some that can add brainpower and strategy, and there are some that bring graphics to their work. This guy can do it all. Maketa has the skills to work in corporate ,with nonprofits, and to bridge to the public sector. He is a total pro who brings his full heart and head to the work.”
“The way that he captured everything that was said created a visual transcript that we kept referring back to over and over again. We were really able to see the progress we made. Independent School Administrator”
Maketa was personable and inviting. He was an excellent facilitator - leading but not directive. He kept us on track without squelching the creative process. Well done!”
