Background
We’re excited with the addition of industry veteran David Sibbet to the facilitator group. David is the founder of The Grove Consultants International, a full service organization development consulting firm located in the Thoreau Center for Sustainability in the Presidio of San Francisco. His personal consulting is focused on helping organizations and their leadership teams visualize and implement their strategic visions. The Grove, under his leadership, has been central in creating the field of graphic facilitation as a profession.
David works extensively across sectors, geographies, and culture. His highly interactive process incorporates panoramic/real-time visualization with well-designed group processes that focus on blending rigorous work on the substance of issues with leadership and team development. He works to integrate the spoken, visualized and acted out stories that will invite commitment and creativity from groups.
David and his Grove team regularly design and lead strategy, visioning, creativity, future-forces, leadership development, and large-scale system change processes for clients throughout the world. These include working broadly across both private and public interest sectors for large and small organizations in all stages of development. He is currently facilitating 48 NGOs and 8 Foundations intent on making the upper Midwest a leader in clean energy. He works extensively in Silicon Valley, and recently was in China teaching facilitation to a leading HR consulting firm.
David is also the author and designer of many of The Grove’s extensive line of process consulting tools and guides, including the Drexler/Sibbet Team Performance system, the Sibbet/LeSaget Sustainable Organizations Model, the Grove’s Visual Planning Systems and related graphic templates, it's flagship Strategic Visioning process, and the Grove’s Facilitation Series.
