“Throughout my thirty five years in business, many of them as CEO and President of large multinational corporations, I have used the services of several consulting firms, (many of these are large national and international firms) to provide me with advice, guidance and recommendations on how to improve not only operations but also improve staff morale and relationships. Of all these consulting firms, one firm stands out alone from all others – the firm of Scott and Associates of Burlington, Ontario, Canada. They are the firm that made the largest lasting positive impact not only to the operations of the corporation but to the individuals as well. I can best describe Scott and Associates by calling them a non typical “boutique” style firm spanning not only a full array of expertise but also providing their services in both English and French.
Although Scott and Associates is a high-end professional firm; their approach is such that individuals at all levels of an organization will feel comfortable working with them and their team members.
Without a moment’s hesitation I would strongly recommend Scott and Associates to any organization or individual seeking to develop to their next level.”

“I’ve had the pleasure of working with Lisa as an executive coach when I first took over a CEO level job, having been promoted past my peers in an organization which required significant restructuring. Lisa’s creativity, integrity, and no-nonsense coaching approach assisted me beyond measure. She is a highly-skilled expert whose hard-working empathetic approach is invaluable. Lisa also helped me train our sales force into “thinking out of the box” in approaching customers and helped improve sales results and efficiencies. She would be a great asset to any executive seeking objective improvements in any situation.” June 10, 2012

“Utilizing Lisa Scott, Partner with Scott & Associates is truly an exceptional learning experience for any employee of any organization, regardless of position or size. Within the fifteen years I have known or contracted Scott & Associates, I rank them as one of the very top consultants in organization and people development. An “executive level communicator,” Lisa has provided Abbott Laboratories Canada, SC Johnson Canada and many other Top Tier organizations, with extensively articulate skills in the areas of team skills & development, leadership coaching, functional role / career coaching & development, as well as on-going consulting at the President / Executive Team level for overall organizational team improvements.

“I had the pleasure of working with Dennis and getting to know him primarily as the Chair of the Emancipation Festival in Owen Sound. In my position with the City of Owen Sound, I also had some limited contact with him when he was the Executive Director of Habitat for Humanity Grey-Bruce. Dennis never fails to impress as a detail-oriented and energetic organizer, with excellent leadership skills including the ability to detect and resolve problems that others have yet to perceive. He works well with people in challenging environments, especially in situations with a high degree of team spirit. I would not hesitate to recommend him for any position that calls for leadership and sensitivity.” February 21, 2012

He always finds a solution to even the most difficult situations, gives his all to all of his undertakings and enjoys making the world a better place. I look forward to working with him again and find his commitment to excellence second to none.” March 22, 2012″
