Presenter
Frank Atnikov, Frank Growth Solutions
Hi, I’m Frank!
In a nutshell,
- I have 30 plus years of experience helping organizations grow and thrive.
- I’m a Certified Facilitator and hold a Canadian Institute of Management designation.
- I value collaboration, inclusion, engagement and honesty.
You’ll find me doing the work in community based spaces (community economic development) with a democratic and engaging style. Before launching Frank Growth Solutions I worked as both a manager and business owner in Winnipeg and Regina giving me extensive hands-on organizational experience. Then about 15 years ago I transitioned to the nonprofit world where I find my values much better aligned.
As a certified facilitator, I love seeing individuals and groups coming together in a way that produces consensual outcomes enabling projects to move forward with renewed energy and engagement.
I also draw from a deep network of trusted colleagues to provide wrap-around solutions for all your organizational needs. If I can’t help, I’ll know someone who can.
So, when you need a guide, a collaborator, and (sometimes) a little tough love, I’ve got you covered.
Let’s see what we can do together.
