Diana Arsenian
Diana helps enable strategic thinking, reflection, and achievement of change by way of graphic facilitation and strategic design
She uses images and words to capture information and ideas that emerge from meeting and conference participants ― which in turn helps them to truly see and understand their shared ideas, and to effectively collaborate in building off of them.
Diana has brought her extensive training to bear for a broad range of leading corporate clients including Apple Computer, Kaiser Permanente, and Whole Foods, for non-profit organizations including The Rockefeller Foundation and The Institute for the Future, and for multiple governmental agencies. Fluency in English and Spanish allows her to work seamlessly across continents and cultures.
Before going solo, Diana honed her craft as art director and senior consultant with The Grove Consultants International, a San Francisco-based organization development firm. It was in this role that she first brought together her combination of past experiences: from study at the Academy of Art in San Francisco, art direction and graphic design for the San Francisco Business Magazine, and from facilitation training when she was a Marketing Associate at Interaction Associates.
When she quite literally steps away from her drawing board, Diana enjoys taking dance classes, painting, and lovingly restoring a Spanish-style home built in Uruguay in the 1700s.
