about us

Connecting government, First Nations, and industry is our expertise.


Ron Poole

President

 

With 40 years of local government experience, our understanding of governance systems, First Nations, and industry is vast and varied. The involvement and enjoyment in working with these many groups, has been the underpinning that has built Poole Consulting. Clients include small, medium, and large local governments as well as treaty and non-treaty First Nations. Industrial experience comes from working with those that are currently leading the province in large-scale development.  

We inspire collaboration. Connecting government, First Nations, and industry is our expertise. Through public engagement, consultation and discussion, everyone wins when everyone is involved. We can help you engage.

Helping organizations prosper is our driving force. Through good governance, high functioning teams, and on-going training, teams succeed with the right tools. Our approach is to understand what drives an organization and how to get the most from this energy. We can get you there.

Our objective is to guide and assist in the change that makes your organization successful. Through training a board or council to mentoring staff, local and First Nations governments are intricate in the way they conduct business and how they serve the public. Aligning the decision making body with the administrative arm can be challenging yet rewarding. We can make that happen.
