FACILITATOR AND CO-RAMBLER

Farah Mahesri
Lead consultant and DE&I expert
FNM Advising

How do we do a better job of changing the world (in a timely manner)? This is the central question that has been the propellant behind my career. I want to be part of the global movement that imagines – and builds! – a free, liberatory, fair world.

I have rambled, meandered and explored my way to this point. I have worked in journalism, in advocacy/lobbying, to support power building and social justice organizations, for large global for-profits, and for tiny start-up ed/tech nonprofits, learning something valuable from each experience.

Today, I work as a “consultant” supporting both large and small organizations striving for greater, bolder, fairer change. I partner and collaborate with organizations to explore their strategies, their organizations and people, and their programs through advising / consulting and leading transformational workshops.
