“Stacia lead a Skills Audit presentation for our team, and wow—what valuable learning for all of us. She had us rethinking our relationship to our skills, the ways we talk about them, and why we want to develop them in the first place. It was foundational reflection that will guide our organization over the year ahead as we dive into career pathing, succession planning, and professional development across the team. Thank you, Stacia, for giving us such solid grounding for the work ahead.”
Carissa Di Gangi, Director of Operations and Government Relations,
ABC Life Literacy Canada
“We had the privilege of having Stacia facilitate a session for our team of Associate Innovation Managers earlier this summer and I can't say enough about the experience. Stacia is extremely engaging and thought-provoking. She helped each of us look inward and really evaluate our skills and what we as individuals bring to our organization. My team absolutely loved the experience and talked about it for weeks after. In fact we're still talking about it, and continue to leverage her teachings in many of our development sessions.
I would absolutely recommend Stacia and the Skills Audit for corporate or individual team building and development sessions. It will change the way you look at your skills forever! We would love to have her back for further sessions.”
Heather Quigg, Manager, Store Innovation,
Walmart Canada
“When our team needed an added pep-in our-step we knew a Skills Audit would do us some good. However, it did so much more. In just one session, Stacia had us deep-diving into our inner selves AND gave us stronger knowledge about one another all while keeping it light and breezy. She, herself, is totally amazing and our team is still talking about that experience today!!”
Keisha Whylie, Senior Philanthropy Officer - Donor & Stakeholder Relations,

“If you have a team and you find yourself talking alot about well-being, I heartily recommend that you do this concrete things to support it!
I can't remember a time in my career when there have been more external challenges and disruptions. My team at Pearson Canada was overdue for an injection of positive energy as 2021 drew to a close. Stacia and her Skills Audit were recommended to me as a unique way to give team members the guidance and the space to reflect on everything they can do and how much they contribute--in all aspects of their lives. More than 50 Pearson Canada employees went through the process--one small group discussion of what they can do, one individual session with Stacia--with universally positive feedback. Stacia is remarkably skilled at drawing people out and helping them see the full potential of their strengths. It's good for anyone at any stage in their journey. Try it!
Stacia, my team at Pearson cannot thank you enough for the way you have facilitated their personal reflections on their gifts and strengths. The Skills Audit is just plain good for the spirit. Your empathy and insight are your own rare gifts. Thank you for sharing them with us.”
Beverley Buxton, General Manager, School Division,
Pearson Education Canada
“We recently worked with Stacia to provide some needed motivation to restart our fundraising activities/team (immediately after the COVID lockdowns were lifted). Stacia was highly recommended by another colleague and I was really looking forward to working with her to identify solutions and tools for our team. Stacia went over and beyond by not only providing us tools but developing bespoke solutions for each individual colleague. She took the time to learn every individual and created solutions that fit each person. I really think that she did a fantastic job kickstarting the team. We are now on the verge of another record-breaking year in 2021. Thanks, Stacia for assisting us on this.”
