Wies Bratby

I am a negotiation coach, former top lawyer and HR Director at a billion-dollar company, and I am an unapologetic advocate for women getting what they want and what they are worth. In my previous corporate roles, I often saw amazing women work twice as hard as their male counterparts, only to be “rewarded” with half the accolades, and a (much) lower salary to boot.

They accepted this because they didn’t have the courage or didn’t know how to pro-actively navigate and negotiate their careers.

Alice Shikina

I have several years of experience mediating landlord/tenant disputes and neighborly disputes. I also work with divorcing couples to get to a resolution around their children, money and property. Finally, family disputes can be about taking care of aging parents, strained relationships between adult siblings or children.

I mediate both litigated cases, such as probate, conservatorship and unlawful detainers as well as conflicts which are not in litigation. Most cases which are stuck in conflict have strong emotional components, whether it be a business case or a family case. I help parties get beyond the emotional blocks and move them to a place where they can come to agreement.

Alexandra Dickinson

Alex teaches people how to negotiate. Even seasoned professionals find this challenging, and the most marginalized in the workplace find it nearly impossible. Alex uses a combination of research, experience and careful listening to intuit what approach a given client will best respond to, and she is proud of the success her clients have had as a result of their work together.

Kathryn Meisner

I’m Kathryn Meisner, Career and Salary Negotiation Coach.

A little bit about me:

I’m an intersectional feminist.
I have a TEDx on resilience (now with 100k+ views).

I’ve been featured in places like Refinery29, Chatelaine, The Globe & Mail.
I’ve worked with over 500 people across 13 countries to help them find jobs they love in less time, and with salary increases up to $50,000. Yup, for real.

And I’ll be your Guidance Counsellor.
