I’ve lived and worked on two continents, contributed inside organizations driving staff learning & development and as an external management consultant partnering with organizations across multiple industries. Private and public sector. Always a focus on solutions for leaders and managers to enhance their effectiveness .
Helping people to learn and grow is a passion. Particularly leaders and managers, who in-turn support their teams.
“Alan is a phenomenal executive coach who understood my communication style and was able to work with me to help me identify specific actions to development my leadership abilities. Alan was able to push me out of my comfort zone, allowing me to understand my own blind spots and help me achieve my goals. I would highly recommend Alan as an Executive Coach to others within the Alberta government and outside of government.”

“I initially didn’t understand or comprehend the need for an executive coach. But as the old adage goes, “you don’t know what you don’t know”. I was lucky to have Alan as an executive coach during a period of time where I needed to change my leadership style. I learned a lot from him on dealing with leadership challenges, building a high-performing team, and providing a vision to guide and unify the team. Alan’s experience provided me the benefit of being able to work through important decisions and plans in advance of exposing them to our project leadership group or senior executive leadership. His sound and thorough methodology is complimented by his keen insight into leadership dynamics. I would strongly recommend Alan as a coach, and consider anyone very fortunate to work with him!”

He cares about his clients but doesn’t hesitate to challenge them to help them grow. Alan, thank you so much for your guidance, all the thought-provoking questions, and helping me dig deeper to find answers.”
