Leading Transformational Change
A planning framework that empowers teams to drive organizational transformation through collaboration, learning, and leadership.
Research-Informed
Built at the powerful intersection of organizational learning, organizational justice, and adaptive leadership, this is a change process people can believe in.
Designed for Change Leaders
This planning framework is for leaders committed to their team's growth and development; it recognizes the importance of culture, context, and the human condition.
A New Way to Plan and Evolve
It honours the wisdom that already exists and surfaces the patterns beneath the surface.
This is a framework for teams who feel the weight of complexity, and the pull of possibility.
Lead Your Team Into its Alignment Era
Leading Transformational Change is more than just another planning framework — it is a catalyst for meaningful, lasting change.
Built at the intersection of organizational learning, organizational justice, and adaptive leadership, this program helps organizations move beyond incremental improvements and step into a new way of working, leading, and collaborating.
A Change Leadership Experience That Transforms What’s Possible
Most change processes produce a plan.
This one produces transformation.
This program is intentionally designed to:
Attend to your organization's culture, history, and context — not just current and future operations and tasks.
Create space for the human side of change.
Build shared understanding across departments.
Use transparent, evidence‑based decision-making.
Strengthen relationships, trust, and leadership capacity.
When people experience a process as fair, respectful, and transparent, they support the outcomes — even when decisions are difficult. This is the power of a justice‑aligned planning approach.
Three Foundational Pillars
Most change processes focus on tasks, timelines, and deliverables.
This program embeds three powerful frameworks — organizational learning, organizational justice, and adaptive leadership — into the change process itself, so that the way you plan your initiative becomes as transformational as the change itself.
Organizational Learning
The change process itself is a learning process.
Participants engage in inquiry, reflection, and collective sensemaking to uncover root causes and systemic patterns behind challenges or pain points.
Organizational Justice
Fairness is built into every stage through careful attention to procedural, interactional, and distributive justice.
Participants experience a process that is transparent, respectful, and equitable.
Participants learn to navigate complexity, engage with difficult questions, and balance what should be preserved with what must change.
This program empowers staff at all levels to develop adaptive leadership skills.
Adaptive Leadership
Program Structure
Leading Transformational Change guides teams through a five-module journey to unlock real growth and transformation.
Who This Program Is For
Organizations navigating complexity, growth, or change
Institutions seeking a more collaborative, transparent planning process
Leaders who want to embed learning, fairness, and adaptive leadership into their organizational culture
Teams who want a plan that is collaboratively developed, not imposed.
Participants do not need prior knowledge of organizational theory — the program builds understanding as you go.
By the end of the program, your team or organization will have:
A vetted, evidence‑based change plan
Clear priorities, success metrics, and a sequenced action roadmap
A shared understanding of purpose, vision, values, and institutional context
Stronger cross‑departmental relationships
A change process that models fairness, transparency, and learning
And perhaps most importantly: Leaders aligned around a shared future — and equipped to lead it.
What Your Team Will Gain
Two Delivery Formats
Professionally Facilitated
Tailored to your specific organization's needs, I facilitate the program for you and your team, using the 5-module framework and learning materials to deliver training and facilitate planning using a real change initiative you define.
This professionally facilitated program can be delivered online or in-person over a period that aligns with the scope of your change.
The program can also be structured as a train-the-trainer workshop or seminar to complement organizational conferences or PD. Book a consult with me to discuss the options.
Online Asynchronous
Offered as a professional development program for change leaders, this train the trainer model uses a real change or challenge that you define, as you learn how to facilitate the method.
You'll get immediate access to the learning materials plus weekly online meets to review and discuss content with peers, along with a burgeoning community of practice to support your ongoing change leadership efforts.
Book a consult with me below to get more information about this option and when it will be available.
About me
Hello, and thank you for your interest in this program!
I am a change leader and trained facilitator with deep experience helping organizations navigate complexity, strengthen alignment, and move strategic priorities from intention to action. My work spans strategic and operational planning, policy and program development, and service and process overhauls — always with a focus on reducing friction and improving outcomes.
My intention with the Leading Transformational Change program is to support change leaders who are grappling with competing demands, operational challenges, and external pressures, to identify what matters most, develop leaders on their teams, and influence transformational change that moves their organization forward.
Traditional Lands Acknowledgement

This territory is also a place of significance for the Denesuline and the Inuit Peoples. I also acknowledge that our water is sourced from Shoal Lake 40 First Nation in Treaty Three Territory, and that most of our hydro-electricity comes from Treaty Five Territory in northern Manitoba.
As a settler on these lands, I acknowledge the harms and mistakes of the past. I commit to addressing systemic biases and barriers that still exist today, and working together with Indigenous communities in collaboration, respect and reciprocity.
