Personalized Indigenous Relations Coaching for Executives
Many senior leaders and executives truly want to do better for themselves and their organizations, but lack the knowledge and cultural understanding to lead Indigenous relations well.
Our cultural agility coaching supports you and your team to navigate this space with respect, confidence and accountability.
*Niso’kawaiksi
“All my relations”
*Niso’kawaiksi is the phonetic pronunciation of the Blackfoot word for “all my relations”, which is the name for this learning program that was gifted by Kainai Elder Casey Eaglespeaker, who emphasized the importance of recognizing our interconnectedness and developing trust, humility, and respect for one another in order to effectively make positive changes toward reconciliation.

Practical guidance for today’s context
This unique learning experience is for Canadians in a position of leadership or influence who want to improve their comfort and capability in working with Indigenous Peoples.
Over the last decade, there has been an increased expectation that people working in leadership roles should be comfortable navigating complex conversations and decision-making related to Indigenous interests. However, learning opportunities to build this capability (beyond a level of simple ‘awareness’) are few and far between.
