Coaching Testimonials

Land & Water BC hired Brent Stewart to be the coach for our recent 360 degree feedback (25 Manager-level-and-up individuals). The staff from all over the province, given we are dispersed, have phoned and emailed their pleasure at his professional, helpful and personable assistance in presenting the results and in the now on-going coaching. This is a 'two thumbs up' for Brent should anyone (Ministry) ask who might be a great choice for debriefings etc.

It is rare that we get feedback on anything openly these days without pulling teeth and to have our staff actually initiate stating their thoughts and feelings is both refreshing and a testimony to the service we received/are receiving from Brent.

When first I began working with Brent I did not realize the scope of what we could accomplish together.  After six months I was surprised and impressed by the progress I had made with his coaching. He has helped me improve my communications and relationships with peers, team members and superiors. His no-nonsense approach has helped me push myself to learn new habits and do my job more effectively."

Ethics Seminar Testimonials

I had the privilege of participating in the Leadership Development Workshop on Ethics today with the rest of my MBA cohort (Royal Roads University).  I was unsure what to expect but was quite impressed with the days proceedings.  I have spent a great deal of my life identifying and solidifying my core values and been happy with my efforts.  I found today's exercise re-affirmed what I have done and continue to believe in within myself.

Thank you for the wonderful workshop today.  It provides further evidence that values continue to be relevant in our world despite the onslaught of money and greed and treachery in our real lives.

My lunch partner came up to me and said “very good presentation... but then I guess you do this a lot” I said no, first time. He said ‘but you’re so confident and you speak so well... (now I’m smiling – mostly inside)... THANK YOU! THANK YOU! THANK YOU!

Brent handled with perfect sensitivity some extremely difficult situations in our program and walked a potentially dangerous line with grace and diplomacy. As a ringmaster he excels. He revealed the humour at the appropriate time. As an instructor, I found it a pleasure to watch him, and I have learned from him. As a participant my greatest compliment can be my thanks for bringing me through this and for being an example of what the possibilities are for change.
