Capacity Building for Artisans

I believe in empowering artisans by providing knowledge and teaching the skills needed to sustain their businesses and communities. My time mentoring artisans in developing countries to expand their businesses, tuned me in to their unique challenges and knowledge gaps. I have developed a program that provides basic business acumen of design, merchandising, and presentation from concept to sale.

My program is geared towards artisans interested in penetrating the Western market or appealing to a Western client base. It can be customized and is offered as follows:

the basics: 90 minute crash course

deeper dive: 1-2 day workshop

immersion: 1-3 week customizable visit to work hands on with the artisans and their product.

train the trainer: training for facilitators, co-op leaders, program managers, etc to bring these skills to their artisan communities
