  • About Zhan

    Hi, I’m Zhan –  an engagement specialist and strategic facilitator who brings a depth of know-how in developing strategies with impact, supported by tools to measure and communicate them clearly.

    My key areas of expertise are community and stakeholder engagement, strategy development and implementation, as well as program and policy evaluation. From my work in education, I am an expert facilitator, whether for a gathering of 20 or 2000. 

    My work spans the education, tertiary, NGO and government sectors and I hold qualifications in Education, Environment and Sustainability, Evaluation and Project Management. 

    My underlying interest in, and passion for, the natural world is reflected in my work across these multiple fields – from leading global strategy and partnerships at the University of Queensland to being one of the founding members of the Hawkesbury Environment Network in Sydney’s North West – all with a common thread of connecting people and the planet.
