Testimonials

I had the pleasure of listening to Linda speak at a TEDx event at Capilano University. Her topic of the changing workplace and the resulting impact was so engaging that I was compelled to reach out to her and have her speak at one of our local alumni chapter events. Linda is highly engaging, and brings to light the real issues of the demographic shift-taking place as a result of aging workforce and increased cultural diversity through immigration. Participants who attended our event left more informed and provided very positive feedback. I would highly recommend anyone in the field of Human Resources to engage Linda to help them understand the implications and maximize the tremendous opportunities that this change brings!

I attended a course entitled ?Leading a diverse workforce? that Dr. Linda Manning developed in conjunction with Algonquin College. Her teaching style towards adults was an experience that I will never forget. The training was very hands on and full of personal experiences that she was willing to share. She is very down to earth, approachable and well versed in the field of diversity and inclusion. She has provided me with additional insight and a different perspective in this field, which has benefited me as a subject matter expert and in turn my workplace. She has remained an additional resource that I can always go to when I require a second opinion.
