She is an experienced group facilitator who has enjoyed learning all about sociocracy with the crew at Tregovenek. She contributes to the Ways of Working and the Finance and Governance working circles. Michelle's day job is with the School for Social Entrepreneurs where she manages support programmes for social and environmental enterprises.
