Founder & GM

Over the past 23 years, Anthony has built six companies, published two books, spoken at events around the world, worked with executive leaders in 17 countries and been recognized with 11 international marketing awards.

Today, Anthony helps agency principals Systemize Repeatable Growth™.

Although a 23-year agency veteran, Anthony's unique perspective was born and bred in the 9+ years spent client-side, living in Europe and working with some of the best agencies in the world (Ogilvy, BBDO and more).

During this time, Anthony researched, evaluated and was pitched to by hundreds of agencies - making him an expert in what clients truly look for and care about when selecting an agency.

As a testament to this, in 2011, Anthony was brought on by the Canadian government to help redefine their RFP process for Canadian Crown Corporations.

In 2013, Anthony 'defected' back to the agency side, where he used his 'inside information' to grow a small agency from $3.5M to $14M in just three years; growing the client base from North America into Europe and the Middle East.

To date, Anthony has closed over $43M in agency new business and financing.

As a tenacious entrepreneur, Anthony has also built his own consulting practice and co-founded two ecommerce companies - exiting both successfully after taking each of them public (CSE) within 12 months.

Bridge Dynamics | Christine Paquette

During the course of my career working with clients, guiding individuals through their transitions is at the heart and core of my work.

These transitions include role change, promotion, industry change, career change, career and life change.

According to William Bridges, in the book Transitions: Making Sense of Life's Changes, we have three stages of any transition: the ending, the neutral zone and the new beginning.

While the stages may be similar, the process of transition is unique for each person.

Having a guide for these times in one's life is supportive and offers a space and place to move toward next.

"The sessions I have with Christine offer an opportunity to focus on how best to move forward." S.W.

"The sessions helped me gain clarity." R.K.

"Christine is an exceptional life mission guide and leads by example. For over five years Christine has provided me with the guidance, tools, and time to support my personal growth and self acceptance. I am grateful for my journey with Christine. I have discovered inner calmness, the power of intention and meaningful transformation to step more fully into my life’s mission." K.P.

"Over a two year time period when I worked with Christine, I was promoted to a more senior role. Through Christine's guidance, mentoring and her asking me key questions, I as able to gain clarity in the areas that I was seeking to develop within myself." L.C.

As a part of a team:
"Christine's key role was to provide strategic advice for the business transformation. In this role she identified organizational and project business opportunities for improvement and for streamlining business processes, while identifying where the organization needed to develop specific capabilities to get the results we were looking for. " Y.L.

Research suggests that Executive Presence is the most important competency to professionals and executives across all industries.

Having a professional Coach / Co-creator / VIP support is no longer a privilege of a few.

This co-creative process draws upon your highest aspirations that engages you and your heart, taking into account your whole life, including your career / role.

By being in the heart-centred  conversation  space, we engage in a co-creative process that supports you in gaining clarity around"the facts, the right and wrong aspects held within thoughts and beliefs, and then invites you to connect with the deepest aspirations for you and your business, who you are called to become within your role, and identify current, needed priorities so that you access your inner compass to create the roadmap to move toward next.

Next is your future that is incoming and what wants to happen.

Next is connecting with what has meaning for you (versus doing what others think or feel you should do).

Next is efforting toward becoming your ideal self, living your ideal life, no apologies.

Speaker | Master of Ceremonies

Winnipeg Transition Centre

While working with the Winnipeg Transition Centre I co-facilitated training and facilitated training to other organizations.

Within the framework, I brought my flare and joie-de-vivre.

Contract Facilitator

Agriculture is the foundation of our ecosystem.

I worked on amazing projects with CCC - biodiesel and canola including a white paper on the benefits of biodiesel.

I also had the good fortune to organize and roll out two missions for international delegates that took us through the Prairies, to AB, BC and back.

Consultant, Project Manager, Event Manager

Antex Western

I love the construction industry, love buildings and appreciate all the workers along the value chain - from the breaking of ground to the final touches of the interior.

While at Antex I represented the company at BOMA lunches, created marketing material and facilitated the completion and final touches of the head office that showcases their great work.

Business Development Manager

Manitoba Chapter, Canada Green Building Council

Executive Director

For more than 25+ years I have collaborated with professionals at all levels as they have moved through their various transitions - promotions, new roles, growth of their team and business.

The key to any transition is to consider your life's ecosystem that includes both your professional and personal life.

The intention is similar whether we are working together 1:1 or in a group - to explore how you can live a whole life within all aspects of your life from catching the blind spots to mapping and developing your ideal presence to living your rhythm of your ideal 9 to Fine™.

My process, this journey, has given me a greater sense of freedom, helped me tap into more creativity and encouraged me to embrace the idea that I am more than my professional identity.

What clients have experienced through our work together: greater ease (less worry and stress) through work and life transitions, more creativity and more freedom.

The feedback - “Christine, I am feeling more fulfilled in my life and see the benefit of integrating all aspects of my life.”

We may not realize we are constantly in transition in some part of our business life and personal life.

And we have blind spots that we may not realize. 

Through the questioning process, exploring through conversation, reflection, questions and heartwork, you will have ahhas, gain clarity and be able to discern "for me", "not for me" and "not right now".

Are you feeling at the "top" for you and feeling unfulfilled or looking for your next?

MAKE YOUR POSSIBLE YOUR REALITY.

Book a complimentary discovery session today to start the conversation and take the step toward becoming the person you want to become, for yourself, your family, your colleagues.
