Nonverbal Communication Training in Ottawa
Choose from a variety of in-person or remote training options tailored to your needs.
An Expert in Nonverbal Communication Training in Ottawa
Through my nonverbal communication training, I help leaders and their teams enhance relational intelligence by going beyond words. With over 20 years of experience in the Canadian federal government—including 15 years in strategic intelligence—I have developed unique expertise as a consultant, speaker, and workshop facilitator.
Today, I share this knowledge with those who want to increase their impact, whether in interviews, meetings, or when speaking to an audience.
I offer both in-person and online training and conferences via recognised platforms such as Zoom, Webex, or MS Teams, providing the flexibility modern organisations require.
Strengthen your leadership by mastering the invisible codes of communication.

Nonverbal Communication Training for Authentic Leadership
For more than five years, I have provided international organisations and businesses with nonverbal communication training that reveals the power of presence. My approach is interactive, engaging, and tailored to the specific challenges of each team or individual.
Certified in EQ-i 2.0® and DiSC®, I guide participants in adjusting their posture, eye contact, and gestures to foster authentic and lasting connections. Whether you want to strengthen skills in prioritization, interpersonal communication, emotional intelligence, leadership, or team cohesion, each session is designed to encourage active learning in a stimulating and supportive environment.
Bilingual and passionate, I have shared my expertise through conferences and training worldwide, making me a valuable asset for your organisation’s growth.
With my nonverbal communication training, transform your interactions into a powerful advantage for your professional relationships in Ottawa.
