Why work with me?
"Lasana was our strategic planning consultant for NASW-MA in 2022. His presence, thoughtfulness, follow-through, and insights were very valuable to our process. It was because of his involvement that we were able to meet our timelines for the process and create shared spaces that prioritized collaboration and compassion, helping us to achieve the work. I would recommend Lasana for any organization that is seeking a consultant to bring a constant, helpful perspective to their strategic planning processes".
