Client Testimonials
Garry was generous to volunteer his time to carry out an assessment of our project management processes and provide recommendations. Garry brought valuable project management expertise to our organization and through the assessment asked great questions. We found his summary report to be concise and right on the mark. We were so pleased with Garry's volunteer contribution that we then hired him to deliver a half day project management training session, which was also well done and valuable to our team. In addition to his knowledge of project management, Garry was easy to work with, reliable, courteous and brought a sense of humor to the work.

Success Stories
The Recipe for Efficiency:
Manufacturing Processes Optimized
The Challenge:
A rapidly expanding dessert food manufacturer with over 2000 employees across 5 North American locations faced significant challenges because they didn't have any standardized operating procedures (SOPs) and formal training documentation. This resulted in high new hire turnover and inconsistent operational practices, hindering efficiency and impeding scalability.
The Solution:
We partnered with this company to establish a foundational standardization and training infrastructure. This involved us developing of over 1800 detailed SOPs tailored to their food manufacturing processes, creating comprehensive training materials (including quick reference guides and videos), and reengineering key business processes for greater efficiency. We also spearheaded Train-the-Trainer workshops to equip internal resources at each location to deliver consistent training on these new standards and processes.
The Impact yielded significant improvements:
• New hire turnover decreased by 60%, leading to substantial cost savings.
• The implementation of SOPs ensured greater consistency in operations and elevated product quality across all locations.
• Business process reengineering streamlined workflows and increased overall efficiency.
• Comprehensive training led to faster onboarding and a more proficient workforce.
• The establishment of SOPs and training materials constructed a scalable foundation for future growth.

Forging the Future of Care:
Navigating The Pandemic & Beyond
The Challenge:
The pandemic presented the Health Care Authority with an immediate leadership crisis. Existing leaders urgently needed to navigate unprecedented operational disruptions and support overwhelmed frontline staff amidst rapidly evolving directives. Recognizing the long-term implications, developing future leaders for sustained organizational resilience also became a critical priority. A swift, scalable, and tailored strategy was essential to equip both current and emerging leaders to address these immediate and future demands.
The Solution:
We partnered with the Health Care Authority to build a pandemic-response leadership program that worked for everyone – now and later.
We knew one size wouldn't fit all, so we:
• Recommended different online learning paths and virtual sessions for current and future leaders, focusing on what they needed most.
• Delivered easy-to-use toolkits and resources for immediate application.
• Built in ways to identify and grow their next wave of leaders.
The Impact made a real difference:
• Current leaders used their new skills to handle the crisis.
• Future leaders got a solid foundation to grow into bigger roles.
• The whole organization became more resilient in the face of the pandemic.
• Leaders across the board built stronger connections.
