What makes Sharon different than other change specialists?

• As a former Securities Trader under constant stress and ever changing market conditions, she learned adaptability, resilience, quick bottom lined thinking and the ability to act and respond on a dime.
• As the highest rated salesperson in Canada in her market, she became masterful at highly effective relationship and consultative partnerships and removing obstacles to closing deals.
• As a Senior HR Business Partner, she learned about and has been a key player in systemic change, strategic planning, and talent development.
• Less than 1% of leaders are reasonably strong in focusing on both work goals and the needs of other people (Rock 2013). Sharon has real experience in both sides of the leadership equation.
• She has proprietary, practical change methodologies that don’t require invasive organization strategies, can be used immediately and repeatedly, and reduce delay and angst.
• She has always been described as a straight up, clear, truth teller and a person of high integrity. Leaders trust her.
• She has over 4000 hours of coaching over 17 years with several hundred different people in various industries and roles, including President.

She was in the inaugural class of global coaches to be certified in Conversational Intelligence. She has had 72 hours of systems, team and relationship coaching training through the Center for Right Relationship (ORSC).
