Our Approach

Coaching, mentorship, and strategy consulting.

Unleash your full potential.

A modern approach?

Coaching and mentorship are ancient practices found in every culture.

That’s because it works. It creates the kind of transformation that lasts.

OLA Strategy supports professionals to discover and develop their own authentic leadership and strategy styles, so they can lead from within.

Each service is built on MBA-level management best practices, professional project management practices, mindfulness, neuroscience research, behavioural science, cultural diversity, and guidance from our suite of mentors.

The mentors that guide OLA Strategy range from technical industry experts to Indigenous elders. Our services weave modern and time-tested techniques, practices, tools, and perspectives.

Impact-oriented, Strengths-based, Holistic.

It all begins with these fundamental beliefs:

People are the most important part of every organization.

People are creative, resourceful, and whole. Each person has unique gifts, talents, and a lifetime of valuable experience.

People do amazing things when their passions, sense of fulfillment, and life-purpose align with their professional lives.

Everything is interconnected. A social impact organization’s superpower is unleashed when the overall strategy is deeply meaningful to the people.

“Connor is both humble and insightful in his approach. I have really valued his ability to reframe issues in an ethical space, helping me to approach challenges differently and find innovative solutions to complex problems. I highly recommend his support to anyone navigating a challenging path.”

— James Edwards
