ABOUT
Helping you innovate and influence at work
I specialize in helping my clients innovate and influence at work: In my quest for living a more purposeful life, I have had to constantly re-invent myself and learn from past failures and successes. In a previous life I did my military training in the paratroopers [I have a fear of heights], I was a lifesaver [I am a terrible swimmer] and a preacher [I'm still figuring out what I believe]. I was once a media spokesperson for the Chief Justice of Nova Scotia. Go figure, I don’t have a law degree. And if you call me and you get voice mail, I’m most likely immersed in photography, learning about life and light through the lens. My experience and eclectic background as a preacher, coach, author and photographer have led me to speak and coach about Authentic Dialogue – the art of inviting possibility and making a difference through the power of clear conversations and compelling storytelling. Dialogue changes destiny. Dene is the Past President of the Vancouver chapter of the Canadian Association of Professional Speakers and is a Certified Executive Coach through Royal Roads University. He is a Certified Emotional Keynote Speaker | Transformational Coach She draws on more than twenty five years of specializing in people and leadership development in the private and public sectors, across a variety of industries.

Tracey loves telling stories (blurring the lines between real and made-up), cooking (also making it up as she goes along) and searching out and collecting wonderful quotes that make her laugh out loud (e.g. “I love deadlines. I like the whooshing sound they make as they fly by.” Or, “It’s better to be absolutely ridiculous than absolutely boring.”) Tracey has developed and facilitated workshops in leadership communication, coached senior leaders one-on-one and been a successful people leader herself for many years. An accredited member of the International Association of Business Communicators (IABC), she has been a director on the Board four times and a speaker at both regional and international conferences on the topics of turning your leaders into communicators and handling information overload.
