Michael Porcelli (“Porch” for short) has worked with organizations large and small, including early-stage startups, multinational technology corporations, and small mission-centered companies. After a career as a software engineer, he turned in a more human-centered direction earning a graduate degree in psychology and diving headfirst into work as a coach, facilitator, and trainer.
He’s worked with teams to improve their relational dynamics, including engineers, educational technologists, AI researchers, trainers in applied rationality, change-makers in the effective altruism movement, and self-managed teams practicing Holacracy. He’s trained coaches, therapists, and facilitators to bring more relational awareness to their practices.
Through his experience, Michael has come to learn – and to teach – that how we work together is as important as what we’re working on.
For the past decade, Melody has immersed herself in relational work: first as a practitioner, then as a facilitator, trainer, and coach. After her college education in concert lighting design, she switched careers when she realized that she was more interested in the quality of connection with her colleagues than the music on stage. Both her love of relationality and her passion for exploring the mechanics of intimacy made this an easy choice.
Melody became the youngest senior faculty member ever hired at the Integral Center at age twenty-four. There she facilitated groups of all sizes and trained others as relational facilitators and leaders. She also orchestrated three nationwide tours, bringing bite-size experiential learning events to over a dozen communities. Melody and Porch began working together during their time at the Integral Center.
Melody works with clients from around the world of various backgrounds and interests. She’s committed to helping them to get more of what they want in their relationships— and less of what they don’t want.
