Leadership Strategies History

A committed volunteer for church, civic and professional organizations, our company founder, Michael Wilkinson, consistently noted the waste of time and resources experienced due to lack of focus and leadership direction. He began to spend his spare time - while away from his full time job as a member of one of the nation's largest consulting firms, facilitating strategic planning retreats and professional development training sessions for the organizations he belonged to. Week-end successes soon led to requests for facilitation assistance from other organizations. Over time a week-end vocation evolved into a corporation.

In 1992 we formed Leadership Strategies - The Facilitation Company. Since then, we have grown to 40 employees and core contractors, and a pool of over 300 Facilitators through our National Facilitator Database (NFDB). Over 14 years of successfully guiding Fortune 500 companies, non-profits, associations, and IT organizations, has made us a national leader in Professional Facilitation Services and Facilitation Training, and the largest provider of facilitation training in the east coast, with operations in Atlanta, Chicago, Dallas, Denver, Los Angeles, Washington D.C., Toronto (CA) and Sydney (AU). We are nationally recognized as:

  • Strategic planners for CDC and other government agencies
  • Founder and manager of the National Facilitator Database
  • Recipient of the 2003 Facilitator of the Year Award
  • Board members of the National Institute for Facilitation
  • Facilitator of choice for United Way agencies
