Dr. Beatson’s contribution was invaluable in achieving the goals of the last 2 days. She was able to use skillful tools and methodologies to support management and staff in identifying high value work and designing a structure to achieve that most efficiently. It was a great pleasure to work with Lesley. |

Team Development as a result of some dysfunctional behaviour in a dialysis unit |

Lesley was fabulous as a facilitator and mentor for us all. Man oh man do I wish I could clone her and soak up all her knowledge and experience. I really felt like we turned a corner with the VCD group. It was a great experience for us all and a lot of heart felt emotions surfaced (tears included). Does Lesley do this with other groups too? We could use it in many areas!!! I think she enjoyed the chance to get down to the grass roots level and see the potential difference this makes for patients.

Leadership Coaching |

I certainly appreciate the opportunity to have gone through the coaching program; I also appreciate the opportunity to be in a role that really supports me in working from my strengths/passions. I believe the changes in my scores are a direct reflection of both of these opportunities |

Particularly, Gretchen Komick and I would like to commend the work Lesley did for us. Without her help, hard work and leadership, Gretchen & I would not have been able to achieve the desired outcomes for the meeting. Her facilitation work, preparation, teaching and leadership helped us set a firm foundation for the changes taking place in Public Health Protection’s Environmental Health programs. |

We need people like you to hold us accountable to why we do what we do and to help us do it better. I really hope that you can find some meaning here because without your inquiry and perseverance we will have a much harder time trying to get where we need to be.
