What People Are Saying

“As a woman leader and change manager, I am so thankful for Amy’s coaching. I am someone who has so many ideas and often feels burdened by the overwhelm of tasks and priorities. Her expertise as an executive and coach has supported me in my own self development to be more effective in life and work. Her coach approach allows me connect my vision to deliverable outcomes. She holds space to listen effectively and asks direct questions to aid deeper discovery. Following our coaching sessions, she often has resources to support my learning and integration. I value her expertise in mental health, emotional intelligence, and business, as it compliments my need for continual self learning. Personal and professional development is a core value of mine and I would recommend Amy to support individuals and organizations in their development journey! ”

Katherine Davis, Improvement Specialist, University of Manitoba
“We contracted Amy Oliver + Co. to conduct a strategic planning session with our Board of Directors and staff, their team’s knowledge about the healthcare system within Canada was invaluable to the process in deciding our strategic objectives for the next few years. Amy and team completely understood the unique challenges and opportunities we face as a not-for-profit organization with a niche mandate, as well were able to help facilitate discussions which led us to think both innovatively and realistically. They have a solid grasp on the environmental factors facing the healthcare industry, such as the ever-changing political climate, which was an asset to our strategic planning discussions. The report which was provided to us afterwards was extremely thorough, capturing all of the sentiments expressed during the session, while also summarizing the main points and making thoughtful and strategic recommendations for our organization. We were very pleased with the work from Amy Oliver + Co. and would strongly recommend them to niche organizations like ours looking to undergo a strategic planning process.”
