"Wendy was our HR consultant and interim HR director for almost two years, guiding us to reimagine our HR structure as well as providing daily operational support to our unionized staff in an organization of 180. Wendy's deep knowledge of the role played by human resources in the life of a learning organization and the value it can bring to its mission brought us to a completely new structure for HR. Our human resources team now contributes strategically as well as operationally at a high level of performance and a much-reduced cost. On a daily basis, Wendy's compassion, humour and intelligence ensured that employees and management were well supported to address all manner of HR matters fairly and expeditiously. Her efficient work ethic and strategic apporach meant that she stayed on top of a large, dynamic workload in only a few days per week. Wendy brings her commitment to justice, equity and inclusion to ever facet of HR and her work"

"I'm certain we wouldn't have been able to resolve the issue as quickly, and as thoroughly if we hadn't had Wendy's help. Her birds-eye point of view, paired with years of experience in the field, allowed us to come to a fair and just conclusion."

"As a new board member working through several interpersonal conflicts and harassment claims, I found the whole experience bewildering at times. Wendy displayed a poise and grace towards the whole situation. She came prepared with a breadth of knowledge about Ontario Human Rights laws and interpersonal conflicts. Because of Wendy's skills, it make our decision as a board a simple one."
