TESTIMONIALS
“Michelle is a globally well-connected professional whose creativity, insight, and subject matter expertise make her an invaluable resource. Her personable and approachable nature make her a natural stakeholder engagement practitioner with the ability to transform feedback into valuable and nuanced content for our reporting as well as proactive and incisive recommendations to improve our social performance. Over the 10+ years I have engaged Michelle’s specialized consulting services, her degree of integrity has been immeasurable, and her level of consistency is unparalleled – you always know what you will get – on budget, on time, informed, and exceeding expectations. ”
Todd Romaine, EVP Sustainability
Galiano Gold Inc.
“Michelle is a strategic thinker with exceptional insight and experience with Canadian companies operating internationally. She was an integral part of Endeavour Silver´s Sustainability Reporting and social performance process from 2013 to 2017. I would highly recommend Michelle to any company looking to launch or improve on their sustainability strategy or reporting. When I heard she added counselling/coaching credentials to her skill-set, it was just such a natural fit; I cannot think of anyone better in our sector to provide individual performance coaching or a program to support for mental health to mining company employees than Michelle. “

“Michelle’s experience providing sustainability strategy and social performance consulting services, combined with her stakeholder engagement expertise and credentials as a counsellor, make her uniquely and particularly well-suited to support companies committed to enhancing Psychological Health & Safety at work.”
Dr. Ian Thomson, Founder & Principal
Shinglespit Consultants Inc.
“Michelle is a highly professional and knowledgeable social performance consultant. In the ten years I have known and worked with her, I have found her to be particularly fluent with the (many versions of the) GRI Standards and other international and industry sector performance standards. Her early career in finance and communications within the mining industry provides exceptional insight into how the business works, which extends into her writing as well as her overarching stage-appropriate sustainability guidance. I reach out to some consultants to do what I ask them to do, but I reach out to Michelle when we need someone to consider things in a different or strategic way.”

“Michelle is a multi-faceted, highly talented professional with an extraordinary work ethic. She brings a high level of professionalism to the field and provided a range of support to Lundin Mining during our two-year relationship, including: designing a Sustainability Report that exceeded expectations, leading CSR integration workshops, drafting social responsibility standards as well as guidance as to the integration of a variety of other international standards into our management systems. She is extremely knowledgeable about corporate sustainability reporting and is diligent in keeping up with industry standards and trends. What stands out to me about working with Michelle is that she was always responsive; when she committed to getting work to me it was delivered timely and with accuracy. She is a delight to work with and I would recommend her to other organizations needing support in the vast area of CSR”.
