Upskill Consulting

A year ago this month I stood in front of 300+ HR leaders with a message: 👉 It’s time to ditch the feedback sandwich. The goal of feedback is to help people learn, grow & perform at their best. youtube.com/watch?v=Kcp-oQ… #UpskillHR #LeadershipDevelopment #ThursdayThoughts

👉 As leaders, we jump to solutions way too fast. We think we’re being helpful. But often? People don’t want solutions. They want to be heard. Reminder to self (and maybe you too): Less advice. More curiosity. #Leadership #Coaching #Curiosity #PeopleLeaders #UpskillHR

Grateful to work with my long-time client Randhawa Farms (almost 10 years!). Today we brought their policy handbook to life - turning it from words on paper into a true playbook. Always inspired by their commitment to growth. #UpskillHR #LeadershipDevelopment

Today we delivered training for a large non-profit on Discrimination, Bullying & Harassment. Important conversations on legal obligations & the human side of building respectful, psychologically safe workplaces. #UpskillHR #RespectfulWorkplace #EmploymentLaw

Just wrapped a 3-hour virtual session with a BC-based engineering & land surveying firm on The Five Dysfunctions of a Team. Strong teams aren’t conflict-free - they’re conflict-capable. Trust, healthy debate & accountability drive results. #UpskillHR #LeadershipDevelopment

Imposter syndrome often shows up when we’re expanding, not when we’re failing. The real challenge is learning the difference between growth friction & misalignment. If this resonates, reach out to join our May leadership cohort. upskillconsulting.ca/2026/03/08/imp… #upskillhr

This one gave me all the smiles. This is exactly why we do this work. Grateful to work with leaders who care deeply about showing up better for their teams #UpskillHR #LeadershipTraining #LeadershipCoaching

This is what meaningful leadership learning sounds like! “Engaging - even for the most distractible.” “Great balance of group work & discussion.” “Enriching.” “Practical self-reflection I can apply right away.” That’s leadership training that sticks.

Meetings shouldn’t drain energy. They should drive results. Grateful to co-facilitate a workshop on running effective, accountable meetings with the team at Randhawa Farms focused on clarity, structure & follow-through. #UpskillHR #EffectiveMeetings #HumanLeadership

SDI creates those powerful “aha” moments - helping teams understand what drives behaviour, how stress shows up, & how to work together more intentionally. 👉 If your team is ready to strengthen communication, collaboration & trust, let’s connect. #UpskillHR #LeadershipTraining

You’re never fully ready for your next step. But you can be willing Leaders wait to give feedback They wait to have the hard conversation They wait to speak up-hoping clarity or confidence will magically appear But courage doesn’t come from waiting. It comes from moving anyway

This is #leadershipdevelopment that meets people where they are and equips them for where they’re going. If your organization is looking for #leadershiptraining that is engaging, reflective & relevant to real work, let’s connect. #UpskillHR #LeadershipCoaching #HRConsulting

Just wrapped a 3-hour SDI session with the senior leadership team at @rvschoolyyc in Calgary. Powerful conversations on how we show up individually and collectively and how to strengthen leadership, connection, and collaboration. Phenomenal group! #UpskillHR #SDI

💬 Feedback doesn’t fail because leaders don’t care - it fails when they don’t have the tools or confidence to deliver it well. 👉 If your organization wants to strengthen performance conversations across teams and locations, let’s connect. #UpskillHR #LeadershipTraining

This is what intentional leadership development looks like: ✔ Practical tools ✔ Real stories ✔ Clear structure ✔ Skills leaders can apply immediately 👉 If you’re looking to set your leaders up for success - connect with Upskill Consulting. #TestimonialTuesday #UpskillHR

Another year older & grateful. Biggest lessons so far: Perspective matters. Learning never ends. Failures teach more than wins. Success isn’t solo. Trust is built in small moments. Boundaries matter. Dreams can be big. #UpskillHR #LeadershipTraining #LeadershipCoaching

Trust is built in the moments we often overlook. Grateful to deliver Module Two of our leadership journey with the team at Bonaventure Support Services focused on the everyday behaviours that shape trust & psychological safety. #UpskillHR #LeadershipTraining #LeadershipCoaching

Back in Nanaimo for Session #2 with an incredible group of leaders and tomorrow’s conversation will really boil down to one thing: How we choose to show up. #UpskillHR #LeadershipDevelopment #LeadershipTraining #LeadershipCoaching

2024 Global Culture Report on “Practical Empathy”: Embrace the diversity of experiences and aspirations in your organization for a more dynamic workplace. How are you integrating empathy into your organizational practices? #UpskillHR #HRConsulting #LeadershipTraining

Just wrapped a great 2-hour virtual training with The Radius Group! We focused on feedback and preparing leaders for meaningful, human-centered review conversations. Excited to see how they put it into action for their 2025/2026 cycle. Grateful for this team! #UpskillHR
