SAANB (Société des Acadiens et Acadiennes du Nouveau Brunswick) Clientele satisfaction
2005 & 2007 The data collection aspects of the study required two types of research activities:
•Data research in the 2001 census to build a profile of the Restigouche french communities (bilingualism, socio-demographics, etc.)

C) EXECUTIVE COACHING / LEADERSHIP, CHANGE MANAGEMENT & PROGRAM DESIGN

ACOA Nova Scotia (2006 – ongoing): In cooperation with Senior Human Resources leadership, developed, implemented and evaluated a Pilot Project on Career Development and Learning Planning and a subsequent ‘second round’ involving two Executives, three Managers, thirty-two Officers and seven Administrative Support employees. Each participant completed a comprehensive Career Development Assessment, utilizing a battery of psychometric assessment instruments, Career Development Report preparation and extensive and candid feedback by a consultant. Discussion and reflection by participants resulted in the development of comprehensive and relevant Career Learning Goals. The program with the Executive and Management team included a 360 feedback process, using the Behavioral Competencies accepted by the Government of Canada and Leadership Competencies from other sources. Evaluation feedback of the Pilot Project was consistently positive, and feedback and evaluation information has been integrated into the process.

Annapolis Valley District Health Authority (2004 – ongoing) Currently facilitating a comprehensive Mentoring and Coaching project with a group of Health Professionals, aimed at enhancing leadership skills of incumbent managers, identifying gaps requiring development in new managers, and supporting the ongoing succession planning initiative within the organization. A previous Pilot Project included extensive discussions with participants regarding experience, strengths, etc and, an exhaustive assessment process to identify a broad spectrum of leadership related criteria; leadership style, decision making, communication and conflict management styles, personality factors, problem solving ability, vocational profiles and emotional intelligence. After preparation of a detailed report on the assessment results, including a report synthesis, participants received coaching, directed toward initiation of an individual development plan to further develop their strengths and improve the areas where there are performance gaps. These development plans, in collaboration with the participants’ superiors, will include specific development goals, with action plans and timelines, which are aligned with the broader organization goals. The development plans, once in place, will be open ended, with new goals outlined each time a specific goal is achieved implying a continual raising of the performance bar.

Office of Economic Development, Province of Nova Scotia (2004) Delivered 360° feedback exercise for the five Senior Managers of this provincial government department. This engagement included the application of psychometric instruments to measure personality, relationship skills, conflict resolution skills, communication and decision-making skills, as well as emotional intelligence and general ability; along with interviews with referees chosen from the individual’s superiors, peers, and subordinates. Each participant received constructive and candid feedback and was assisted in developing a dynamic action plan for further career development.
