About Theresa Smith
From the time I was 12 years old, I have been coaching, teaching or leading in one capacity or another. Whether it was learn-to-skate programs, teaching in Japan or leading a team of top-notch sales professionals, helping others learn, grow and succeed on their own terms, while being their true selves, has always been fuel to my fire. I bristle at being labeled or put in a box, knowing as individuals we are incredibly unique and complex, and as a result, I am fascinated at what lies beneath the surface or behind the curtain for others. Curious about what makes individuals tick and drives their behaviour, I wonder, what are their hopes and dreams? What motivates them? What inspires them? How can I help?
Following a successful, 25-year career in start-up and corporate settings, where I led teams and organizations that include the Financial Post and National Post newspapers, Microsoft Advertising, digital media company, Olive Media, and Toronto-based, tech-start-up Tribal Scale, I found myself ready to leave leading someone else’s business, and set out on my own, doing what I love and what has always fueled me.
Today, I combine my 20+ years of leading people and businesses, with my skills as a Co-active Coach and training in Positive Intelligence, to help leaders become values-led and purpose-driven at work and at home, showing up as their best selves and positively impact the world around them.
At the foundation of the work I do is my deep-rooted belief that personal development is professional development and that we all have the potential to be great leaders. In order to realize that potential, we must first free ourselves from the habits and old stories that limit our thinking, sharpen our vision for our future and unleash our unique skills, talents and gifts!
