Service portfolio

  • IDEA Strategy Reconnaissance

    Our IDEA Strategy Reconnaissance service partners with you to identify intentional and tangible goals that address both current and future organizational needs. Through a lite diagnostic process, we "pull back the covers" to uncover what may be unknown, offering valuable insights into your organization's Inclusion, Diversity, Equity, and Accessibility (IDEA) landscape. This comprehensive evaluation serves as the foundation for a well-informed, strategic approach to fostering a more inclusive environment.

  • IDEA Design & Implementation

    Building on the insights from our reconnaissance, we develop and implement a tailored IDEA strategy designed to address your specific challenges and opportunities. Our approach provides a clear roadmap for success, with actionable steps and a focus on sustainable change. We work closely with your team to align on goals, ensuring the strategy is effectively integrated into your organization. The result is a collaborative effort that drives meaningful progress and long-lasting impact.

  • Faith Identity and The Workplace

    Our Faith Identity and The Workplace service focuses on fostering an inclusive environment where employees feel valued and respected regardless of their faith or spiritual beliefs. We help organizations navigate the complexities of faith expression, providing guidance on policies and practices that support religious diversity while maintaining a respectful and cohesive workplace culture. Through tailored strategies and training, we aim to create spaces where faith identity is acknowledged and integrated into broader diversity and inclusion efforts, enhancing overall organizational harmony and employee well-being.

  • Workshops for Boards & Executive Teams

    Boards and leadership teams face constant change, challenges, and growth. How leaders 'show up'—both individually and collectively—has a profound impact on team performance, efficiency, and overall influence.

    This 2-hour interactive session guides participants through a journey of introspection, helping them reflect on and appreciate their own and their peers' lived and professional experiences. The session fosters a deeper understanding of how individual contributions can enhance collective leadership, driving greater cohesion and inclusivity within the team.

  • Coaching for Mid-Career Intervention

    Too often, organizations wait until it's too late to engage with their emerging leaders. Early dialogue with future leaders, communicating that they are seen, acknowledged, and supported, is crucial for their growth. By investing in Mid-Career Coaching early on, you give your talent the chance to develop their leadership skills and make an impact well before stepping into high-profile roles.

    This coaching helps future leaders identify and refine their "superpowers," enabling them to thrive and contribute at a higher level sooner.

  • Keynote Speaking

    An accomplished speaker, known for his storytelling and his superpowers of vulnerability and self-awareness, captivates audiences by taking them on a journey of discovering their purpose and finding the courage to trust their instincts. Each keynote is designed to inspire and empower, leaving listeners with actionable insights and the motivation to embrace their own potential.

Building Stronger Teams Through Transformative Leadership

“With significant corporate changes over this past year, the Abilities Centre had the opportunity to build a collaborative and effective partnership among Board members and the CEO/President. The leadership training provided by Penny Drop Advisory, specifically exploring our own complex “Dimensions of Identity” - enabled board members to learn about what drives each of us and how it influences how we perform as a team. I believe this team building and team bonding workshop, facilitated by Tej Singh Hazra, was an excellent training session and strengthened our working relationships. “
