Jean Pierre ChabotChabot has followership and leadership skills: he has good notions about when, where, how and why to apply either or both. He has experience in oversight, development, analysis and facilitation; applied to activities in public, private, and non-profi sectors; at local, regional and international levels. He has worked in strategic planning, project management and stakeholder communications. Chabot is an avid reader and values continuous learning.

Chabot enjoys canoeing and approaches his professional life in much the same way he would a river. Observation, perception, calculated risk-taking, prudent decision-making, rapid response in action, endurance, and sharing are all things that a river, once paddled, will teach an avid paddler. Canoeing, like a broad-based professional background, provides one with a balanced appreciation for the value and limits of foresight, hindsight, planning and implementation.

Chabot wrote On Consensus: A Framework for Adaptive Action in order to help others learn about and ultimately share in building conscious consensus. Read More Read Less
