Let's reimagine stories of relationality

'If you have organisational needs and are looking for a thoughtful, generative, self-organising approach, Anna-Marie is a great resource.'
Kristen Pavle, Social Technologist & Entrepreneur

'We so appreciate everything you do to help us, and others in this space.'
ReCommon team

'When Anna-Marie communicates, she finds a rare balance between kindness, completeness, and clarity. Her full body yes fuels the whole relationship like a regenerative engine. Combined with her brilliant facilitation skills, you will always know where you are at. Everything she produces has been through a cycle of consideration and care; a combination of deep listening, research, and commitment.'
Leen Schelfhout, Deep Democracy Trainer

'The Ecological Organizations Framework is an incredible tool! I have shared it with my college students to help them explore their relationships with the land and holistic organisational dynamics. The EO framework allowed students to navigate the complexity of our regional systems with hope instead of despair, and inspired them to act locally within their own organisations. Anna-Marie is also a beautiful facilitator and guide of this work, and has been inspiring to work with.'
Amie Riley, Equity-Focused Educator at Portland University

'I am so grateful to Anna-Marie for offering this space and sharing both her wisdom on this topic and her expert facilitation skills. Anna-Marie brings a huge amount of care and knowledge to her work, she created a beautifully open space for us to explore and feel freedom in sharing our experiences.'
Ellie Snowden, Senior Research Consultant at The Cynefin

'Anna-Marie has intentionally opened this space up for inquiry and craftily held it just loosely enough that each session has felt easy and natural - that in itself has been fascinating to witness and experience. It's genuine craftmanship, and a unique skill.'
Camila Todd, Nature & Circle Facilitator

'The Framework literally explains what I've been trying to do over the past year! I love the aspects prioritised here and also the fact that the different petals are further detailed by questions of inquiry, not statements or boxes you can tick'.
Ramona Fricke, Social Innovator & Lead Strategist

'She has been amazing to work with. Not only does she bring in the right (and often changing) questions and perspectives needed to chart the right strategic course for Nestr to thrive, she has a keen sense for the differentiation of relationships and work. With her boundless skill, curiosity, awareness and compassion she can support and guide any organisation through the process from idea to collective impact.'
Joost Schouten, Co-founder Nestr

'Thank you for opening up this field: rootedness in our organisations. We often see our organisations as stand alone entities. But they never are. They are rooted in systems. In land, in communities.'
Nynke Vos, Ritual Designer & Grief Faciltator

'Anna-Marie is a gentle and thoughtful facilitator who holds the space with tender curiosity. Her vulnerability and open-heartedness laid the way for our group to share their own experiences with honesty and candour.'
Participant, enquiry group

'In March 2024, we (The Heschel Center for Sustainability) arrived with a group of seniors from the Israeli education system for a short learning program at Schumacher College. One of the workshops we went through was given by Anna-Marie Swan, an organisation ecologist. Anna managed to gracefully and sensitively connect the participants to ecological thinking. The connection of learning through mindfulness, the weaving of connections and relationality, from the personal and individual level, to the levels of the system and the planet, were perceptibly precise. Thanks Anna!'
Shachar Kahanovitz Gal, The Heschel Center for Sustainability
