About Us

At the very core of our being is who we are as a leader. Without knowing what’s important to us, what we stand for, and what our purpose is, we cannot expect to lead our lives, our businesses, our careers, or others. If we truly want to be successful as a leader, we must realize that true transformation comes from the deepest level first to solidify the behavioural changes required for high performance.

Most of us tend to think of leadership as an external event. In other words, it’s seen as something people do. It focuses on competencies and capabilities. Our belief about leadership is that it is something we are. And if you accept that definition, leadership then is more than just a role we play and the external results we achieve; “true leadership requires a deeper awareness about ourselves – our passions, values, purpose, and vision. It’s about understanding the complexities of our mind, thus providing a well-rounded approach to leadership.” – Louise Veres

I have worked with Louise one-on-one and with my staff team. I admire how actively she listens and is able to identify issues, barriers and fears that were ultimately holding me and my team back from reaching our true potential. She peeled back these layers in a compassionate way, giving us the tools to put our desires into action. It gave us the confidence to make decisions and set a clearly defined path for success.

David is very engaging; he inspires enthusiasm and has an excellent understanding of strategic planning versus operational planning. David’s use of questioning frameworks to explore ideas from both internal and external stakeholders was effective in obtaining data used to develop our strategic plan. David is organized and has strong analytical skills.  He outlined the project deliverables and timelines and what he promised was delivered.

My experience with Louise as my coach was extremely positive. She created trust very quickly and I was confident that she genuinely cared about my success and in helping me identify obstacles that were getting in my way.

Louise really gets to the heart of the matter when working with you. She was able to, very quickly, pin point my challenges in getting my start-up business off the ground that I had not been able to articulate myself. She helped me find my ‘ah ha’ moments as well as helping me to put some well needed structure into my business plans and find ways to move my ideas forward. Louise is not only interested but also cares about you and your company. Refreshing!
