ScaleUp delivers strategies that elevate

Christine jumped into several work streams that leveraged her various capabilities and experiences; examples include providing coaching to leaders, building an executive recruitment toolkit, facilitating workshops to create an inclusive hiring strategy and developing leadership feedback guidance. Across all workstreams Christine showed-up as a true partner, actively listening to understand our needs and easily shifting her approach, as timelines changed and stakeholder expectations evolved. At times it was easy to forget that Christine is a consultant, as she seamlessly integrated into each team she participated in. The leaders Christine provided coaching to, shared that she challenged their thinking, asked provocative questions and gave them actionable advice. Lastly, Christine’s responsiveness, detail-orientation, critical thinking, process and project-orientation and deep functional knowledge of all things HR-related make her an incredible consultant; she also has a great sense of humor which makes her fun to work with!
