Mentoring for online learning groups
e.g. Facebook groups are popular as peer-support groups for paid courses.
​Any good facilitator knows that group agreements and environments are maintained not by the leader but by all the members. This is somewhere I really stand out and shine, leading by example and building trust, community and peer-learning in ways that facilitate "going deep". ​

"Maija has a really great talent for empowering people and bringing the best out in them. She is able to help people identify their own strengths and path. I can say that Maija is totally organised and professional yet also approachable and empathetic. A great mix of skills"  

​- Helen Northcott
"Maija's thoughtful art-practice is underpinned by her dynamic organisational and project-management skills. She is a natural and enthusiastic collaborator and has that rare ability to draw out the best from every member of the team. By providing a creative framework for discussion, she enabled us to articulate our practices in new ways. I highly recommend her as an excellent artist, collaborator and project manager."
