How Can
I Help
You?

Many educators and organizations know that teaching and learning systems need to change, but struggle to move beyond fragmented initiatives, short-term fixes, or technology-led decisions that don’t hold together over time.

At the core of my work is a simple commitment: I help people learn, decide, and design more coherently in times of complex change.

While this work is grounded in writing and practical resources developed through Harmonized Intelligence® (HIQ), it comes alive through relationship, dialogue, and shared design. Across all contexts and ages, the goal is the same: to design learning environments that are coherent, future-ready, and deeply human in an age of accelerating technology.

There are several ways to engage with this work, depending on your goals, context, or constraints. Experiences may be offered in an in-person, online, or in blended formats.

Speaking Engagements

Many people first encounter this work through a keynote or invited talk.

These sessions are designed to help audiences step back from tools and tactics and engage with the deeper systems questions shaping education and learning in the age of AI.

The focus is on perspective shifts, and clarity, helping people see familiar challenges differently and recognize where meaningful change is possible. Speaking engagements often serve as a starting point, opening the door to deeper collaboration, reflection, and action.

Closing Keynote: CREATING ROBUST SYSTEMS OF INNOVATION IN A POSTDIGITAL WORLD.

2023 Conference for the Consortium for Schools Networking (CoSN) in Austin, Texas.

Topics of previous speaking engagements include:

A New Operating System for Human Learning
Teaching Humans in the Age of Machines
Education Needs a System Upgrade
From Disruption to Direction, Rebuilding Learning for What Comes Next
The Future of Learning Is Human, But Only If We Design It That Way

Do you want me to lead a formal course for your community on Harmonized Intelligence ?

Do you have a specific learning goal in mind that needs an experienced facilitator?

Do you want to join me in one of the formal courses I am already offering?

Facilitated Learning Experiences

I design and lead facilitated experiences that bring groups together to think, reflect, and work through complex challenges collaboratively.

These sessions may be offered online or in person and are structured to balance focus, engagement, and momentum. Facilitated experiences work well for organizations or networks that want to move from insight to action, through large group learning events or design sessions.

Courses currently offered / running at the University of Toronto:

Systemizing Innovation (Part of the Business, Finance, and Management Certificate Program)
Designing and Conducting Evaluations (Part of the Learning Design Certificate Program)

Courses coming soon or previously delivered:

Designing Innovative Learning Experiences (Institute for International Development at Humber)
Teaching & Learning with Technology (York University's Faculty of Education)

Do you manage subject matter experts who need to learn more about the artful science of teaching?

Do you have employees who need help developing learning programs or strategic L&D plans?

Do you have educators who need to develop skills teaching and/or assessing skills online?

Do you want a small group based experience on how to live the values of HIQ ?

For smaller groups working within a shared context, communities of practice provide continuity and sustained support.

These longer-term engagements bring together people facing similar challenges, whether within a school, district, organization, or professional group.

Through facilitated dialogue, shared reflection, and practical application, communities of practice support participants as they work through the real work of implementation and change. The emphasis is on guided progress, shared learning, and building capacity together.

Outcomes of previous experiences (of varying lengths) have been:

Creating a meaningful strategic L&D plan in collaboration with co-workers.
Developing persuasive communication skills related to NGO fundraising.
Drafting an assessment tools for the development of a Growth Mindset.
Designing a pan-university course in co-operation with multiple departments.
Implementing Harmonized Intelligence in the Secondary School Classroom.

Communities of Practice (CoP)

Do you want to design a strategic plan to support a culture of learning at your organization?

Do you need help drafting a competency framework or creating performance evaluations?

Do you personalized HIQ ctools and templates for your specific educational context?

Strategic Advising

At the heart of this work is collaborative, systems-level problem solving.

I partner with leadership teams, educators, and organizations who are navigating change and want a thought partner to help make that change viable, feasible, and desirable. Advisory work focuses on sense-making, alignment, and decision-making over time, rather than one-off solutions.

This work is grounded in real-world constraints, supporting organizations as they adapt HIQ principles to their own context and build coherence across people, practices, and priorities.

Deliverables associated with such consultations have included:

Creating a 2-tiered Leadership Certificate Program in continuing education.
The design, development and delivery of multiple online courses in the private sector.
Developing an online professional development program for innovation in higher education.
Drafting competency framework for Academic Advisors that helps to build cohesion at the provincial level, while allowing for customization at the institutional level.
Providing personalized HIQ implementation plans for elementary and secondary school boards.

Do you want sustained support rather than a one-off guest lecture or workshop?

Are you preparing future educators, designers, or leaders to work within complex learning systems?

Have you taken on a large re-design for your teaching and learning programs and looking for an embedded partner to work alongside your community over time?

Faculty-in-Residence

These engagements make it possible to work together over time, either within an academic setting as a visiting professor or in close partnership with an organization. Large-group learning experiences can be combined with ongoing advising and small-group facilitation so ideas can be tested, refined, and integrated in practice.

Residencies are typically designed to unfold over several months, with the length and cadence of touchpoints shaped to support sustained learning, alignment, and progress.

Examples of Faculty-in-Residence engagements include:

Working alongside program directors to map gaps, redundancies, or misalignment across a curriculum or credential pathway
Designing and facilitating a specific course over a term or academic year
Partnering with departments to pilot and refine new approaches to integrating technology, human capacities, and disciplinary learning
Supporting cross-departmental conversations where programs intersect or overlap
Working within an academic program to re-design assessment practices and support systems-level alignment Contributing to the design of capstone experiences, practicum models, or applied learning components
