Strategy and Action Planning
We support leaders and teams to lead change and turn ideas into action. Whether you’re navigating growth, responding to shifting priorities, or developing something new, we work with you to move from vision to clear, practical plans.
This might look like facilitating conversations to surface challenges and opportunities, engaging staff and stakeholders, developing strategies and action plans, and creating tools, resources, or training to support implementation etc. We also support research, learning, and knowledge-sharing processes that help teams build alignment and move forward together.
We take a people-centred approach, recognizing that change can be complex. Employees often experience stress, negative emotions, and burnout from new initiatives. We support you to lead in ways that build trust and confidence, reduce uncertainty, and keep people meaningfully engaged from early ideas through to delivery.
What we’ve helped build:
Accessibility and Equity Audits and Plans
Sea Change is developing accessibility audit tools and plans to support employers across Nova Scotia to identify strengths, gaps, and strategies to address organization-wide barriers to accessibility.
Awareness and Capacity-Building
Nova Scotia’s Post-Secondary Accessibility Framework established a shared vision and commitments for accessibility in Nova Scotia’s post-secondary sector. Sea Change is leading the process to identify tensions and opportunities in post-secondary accessibility services; build a shared vision to increase the capacity of leaders, faculty, and staff; and create consistent and comprehensive resources to accelerate awareness, capacity and action.
Research and Knowledge Mobilization
The Family-Centred and Trauma-Informed Responses to Gender-Based Violence in Nova Scotia project builds on previous research to provide strategic, evidence-based recommendations and strategies. Sea Change is playing a key role to facilitate multi-stakeholder learning events, create and implement a knowledge mobilization plan, and offer strategic advice to the research team.
Customer Service Strategy and Development
Sea Change led the development of a customer service strategy for the Registrar’s Office at Dalhousie University in Halifax, Nova Scotia. Focus groups with more than 100 staff members across multiple teams identified barriers, strengths, and opportunities for training and continuous improvement. We created four online learning modules including Service Mindset, Professional Communication, Intercultural Communication, and Stress & Time Management.
