Meet the Coach

Communication is an idea swap, a true story exchange. Broadcasting, writing, speaking in public—I believe it’s all about storytelling, and I’ve been working in the storytelling “business” for more than 35 years at the CBC, as producer, mentor, manager, team leader, trainer and facilitator.

“At a time when everyone seems to be chasing authenticity and when clear storytelling matters most, I can’t imagine a better coach.”

Talia Schlanger, Host, CBC Radio, NPR

Helping someone to become a great storyteller, a great communicator, is in my DNA! And helping you be better in what you do also means you can learn to work better with the team around you. When you know what they do, and they know what you do, that’s the formula for success.

Here’s the experience I bring to working with you:

  • Experience as a journalist: finding and telling stories

  • Experience as a producer: building programming and shaping stories

  • Experience as a director: enabling the best talent performance possible

  • Experience as a mentor: enabling others to tell stories

  • Experience as a manager: building spaces for people to shine

  • Experience as a leader: enabling teams to innovate

  • Experience as a facilitator: enabling groups to find their shared vision

  • Experience as a coach: pulling it all together.

“I leave our sessions feeling grounded, challenged and inspired—and more deeply connected to the Canadian public.”

Saroja Coelho, Host, CBC’s Just Asking
