What We Offer & Why It Matters
Work has a profound effect on the quality of all of our lives. As you read this, you are looking for a specific role and fit; a place where you can grow and develop as a person and a professional. This is a team of great people; you will be able to contribute, be challenged, and at the same time, have a voice and input on decision-making and, more importantly, make a difference.
It’s not rocket science, but it is rare to find.
Every day we are focused on one thing: making work better for Canadian professionals. Our mission is to help every Canadian reach their full professional potential. We believe in the inherent value of the individual and are committed to supporting change, igniting growth, and providing practical wisdom for advancing our clients’ professional development.
This is based on four key drivers:

- Results

Coaching – experienced and expert coaches within the public and private sectors
Supporting individuals through career transition and growth – a modern and human approach
Communication skills – the ability to articulate a message clearly and efficiently
Active Listening – listen to understand rather than listening to respond

Technical Savviness – we are naturals at picking up new technology and can hit the ground running with new systems and processes
Culture |
We work in a culture of respect – for ourselves and each other
We believe in what’s right – not who’s right.
The best approach usually starts with “yes, and…”
You don’t have to have all the answers to get started
We are a fast-paced, service-oriented culture that strives for continuous improvement
We get it done without fussing too much about structure and process. We believe in guiding principles rather than “rules”
We respond quickly and intentionally to meet our client’s needs, juggle multiple priorities, and help our team
We work independently and in project teams and are always willing to help our teammates
Everyone brings innovative ideas and solutions – we all have a voice
We all bring energy, humour, and thoughtfulness to our work and recognize that we are also human and have off days – and that is OK.
