Background

About Mel Scaffold

I help people and organisations achieve sustainable, positive change through facilitation, coaching and creative consultancy. Action Learning: as an ILM accredited facilitator I have established and facilitated Action Learning programmes in a range of organisations, developing leadership, problem-solving skills and peer-support networks. Coaching: I provide a safe, non-judgemental space, facilitating clients’ self-directed learning and enabling them to get clarity about what they really want and how to get there. Trained and accredited through Relational Dynamics 1st and the British School of Coaching. Facilitation and development: I design bespoke organisational and sector development programmes, grounded in 20 years' experience in Arts & Cultural Management. I facilitate warm, inclusive gatherings including Open Space events for groups of 10 – 150 people to solve complex problems together. I am committed to upholding the values of equity and inclusion in my work."Raucous works regularly with Mel as someone who brilliantly keeps our company's vision crystal clear in terms of business planning, development and positioning. She is always a hugely influential cheerleader when we discuss with her any aspirations we may have for the future of the company and then becomes instrumental in helping us build a roadmap as to how we might achieve those goals. For us, her main super hero strength is in listening and reflecting. She holds a mirror up and then points out, oh so gently, where and how we might shape our ambitions and how to voice them when they can often be quite complex. It is a rare skill to be able to hold a company for a moment, allowing them the space to examine about their creative belief system and then carving out the route forward as a business - Mel is a doyenne at it."- Sharon Clark, Artistic Director, Raucous
