About me
Hello! My name is Laurel Albina.
I am an organizational development consultant and conflict management practitioner.
For almost twenty years I have worked in both Canada and the United States as a professional negotiator and engagement facilitator. In 2021 I started my own practice, Albina Strategic, to serve and support communities, organizations and individuals to manage conflict, communicate, and collaborate–using a values-based and equity-informed approach.
My approach
Fundamental to my own learning journey and professional development has been an education and commitment to understand how racism, colonization, and systemic oppression impacts our ability to connect, collaborate, and make change.
I am committed to bringing an anti-racist and decolonial framework to all my work and deeply value partnering with collaborators outside my lived experience.
#LandBack
I am grateful to rest, recreate, and work on the traditional and unceded territories of the Coast Salish people which include the xʷməθkʷəyəm (Musqueam), Skwxwu7mesh (Squamish), səl̓ílwətaʔɬ (Tsleil-Waututh) and dxʷdəwʔabš (Duwamish) peoples.
I am committed to continuing to understand my role in land back, decolonization, truth and reconciliation, and Indigenous sovereignty.
