Ryan Quesnel, CEC, ACC, BBA

I am a certified executive coach through the International Coaching Federation (ICF) and trained on the Excelerator Coaching Model from Essential Impact, taught through the Royal Roads University Executive Coaching graduate program. I am a coach and facilitator passionate about supporting the growth and success of individuals and organizations, helping them reconnect and reflect often to help craft transformational growth personally and professionally.

I believe an organization’s true potential and competitive differentiator lies within its people. I strive to ignite cultural transformation by empowering all people to engage, connect and thrive in the workplace. I am passionate about sharing my tools and experiences as a resource to support organizations collaborate effectively, finding the right combination to build high-performing teams and effectively unearth their full potential, rather than being a group of high-flying individuals with only personal goals and agendas. I enjoy co-creating transformative change by integrating social and emotional intelligence, leadership assessment, facilitated learning, group coaching and 1:1 coaching to support a deeper awareness of themselves and the intricate and diverse people around them.

How do professionals get better at what they do, get great? I help to build valuable insights into our patterns of behaviour that influence our thoughts and actions that lead to a complexity of uncertainty at all levels. Our human interactions are all influenced by our individual styles, motivations, and tendencies that influence our success at work and in relationships. Building a deeper awareness of these factors can help us regain confidence, make more informed decisions, effectively communicate and build resiliency.

My Coaching Philosophy

I take an ethical, strengths-based and humanistic coach-approach, meaning I honour you and every client as the expert of your own unique journey. My clients share with me that they are drawn to my light-hearted positive energy, and how I utilize humor combined with gracefully provocative questions that help them achieve goals they once thought impossible. I genuinely care for relationships and believe engagement with a common purpose builds the foundation for navigating uncertainty. If you are trying to get unstuck personally or professionally, grappling with a life problem, or preparing for a career transition, let’s connect, because connection is key and I’m ready to help you unearth your brilliance.
