Sick of dumbed-down training that shows no results? Me too!

Using a blend of high level thinking, real industry incidents and practical skill building, I help supervisors grow their management skills while respecting their experience, industry understanding and expertise.

The foundation of our approach to manager development is SWEL: Safety, Well-Being, Encouragement and Learning.

“Marie has a unique and highly effective coaching style. She infuses her trademark motivating, energetic style with up to date information and empathy. That’s a hard combination to come by! I wholeheartedly recommend Marie for those who are serious about finding a coach to shift them to the next level.”

– Junetta Jamerson, Community Recruitment Consultant, Alberta’s Rural Physician Action Plan (RPAP)

“I found this course to be useful for both new and experienced managers and leaders. This course covers information that is typically overlooked in a work place and helps understand the relationship between team members and their supervisor. The questions and assignments are designed in a way to get one thinking about their daily actions. I both enjoyed this course and found it useful and organized to go back and remind myself of some of the points mentioned.”

– Vahid Rashidi, Engineer, City of Edmonton
