About.

Know what I love about being a business consultant and a leadership & personal coach? Working with you to identify the flat spots in your business, (and/or the business of running your personal life), and then co-creating sustainable, profitable, oxygen-giving solutions so that you and your business can achieve the success you’ve been hoping for. I also want to set you up for your future success so that you’ll have the tools you need, with or without me present.

DK Stewart Consulting officially launched in 2009 but, like most businesses, has been many years in the making. I have an intrinsic desire to help others and a passion for examining and elevating the human side of business. I’ve had the privilege of earning my 25+ years of experience working with some of the most inspiring organizations, leadership teams and individuals including; Westin Hotels, Cineplex Inc, Universal Studios Hollywood, Grill Concepts, Health Net of California, GinaGomez.com, Community Health Centres of Northumberland and a number of entrepreneurs who were ready to embark on their own businesses.

My work in the fields of human resources, healthcare, entertainment, sales, hospitality and software start-ups have taught me to be both nimble and innovative. One client described my approach as striking a balance of kindness, compassion, strength and intellect to achieve the best outcome for everyone involved. I am a champion of strategic business and human resource solutions, performance management and conflict resolution, with the ability to build positive, productive work environments in both union and non-union settings. I bring proven expertise in organization design & development, relationship management, culture building, process improvement and customer service excellence. I look at things objectively and with a compassionate eye because I genuinely care about the people I work with and bringing your goals to life.

MANAGING EMPLOYEE PERFORMANCE

Managing Employee Performance

 

Is this Performance Improvement Process right for you?

Are you…an individual who is responsible for leading and managing others.

Do you…need helpful tips for understanding, improving and correcting poor employee performance AND want to know how to dive into those difficult conversations with clarity, confidence, compassion and no fear of litigation?

Would you…love to have a team of fully motivated, engaged, and productive team members so that you can spend less time on poor performers and more time on your business?

Navigating difficult employee conversations and managing conflict can be uncomfortable, awkward and quickly escalate without careful preparation.

Avoiding corrective action with employees is costly to morale, productivity AND your bottom line. You aren’t alone in the challenges that leaders face when trying to manage employee productivity or turning poor performers into engaged and productive team members again.

Add to that, the complexity of a hybrid or fully-remote workplace and you hardly have time to do your own work. I get it, and I assist leaders everyday using this time-tested, legally-vetted performance improvement process.

I invite you to preview the most succinct performance improvement tool you’ll ever need in your leadership toolkit.
