Steven Robinson, Interim President & Vice-Chancellor, Brandon University
“Thanks for this, Ken! It was a great presentation and I’d say our retreat was a success. [The slides] will be a really helpful resource for the Board in mulling over what we learned from you.”
Dr Larry Rosia, President & CEO, Saskatchewan Polytechnic
“Ken Steele was instrumental in supporting the Saskatchewan Polytechnic Senior Management Team in orientation of our newly appointed Members of the Board of Directors regarding trends and issues affecting the post-secondary sector. With his engaging style and extensive knowledge of higher education, Ken was informative and thought-provoking. The Board and Senior Leadership Team were inspired by Ken’s energizing presentation, and the effective manner in which it was delivered.”
Feridun Hamdullahpur, President & Vice-Chancellor, University of Waterloo
“Thank you for your excellent presentation at my annual Board of Governors’ retreat. I wanted the Governors to hear about what’s happening in our higher education world today, what are the external forces and influences that can, and will, disrupt our relatively slow moving sector. You did a great job of very clearly identifying the trends, challenges and issues from various perspectives; students specifically and society in general. I, along with the members of the Board, very much enjoyed it and learned from it. It was educating, insightful and to my personal liking, even provocative.”
Ian Holloway, Dean, University of Calgary Law School
“A year and a half ago, we at Calgary embarked on the process of re-doing our strategic plan. At the beginning of the process, our working group spent an afternoon with Ken Steele, the founder of Eduvation, a higher education consulting firm (and a first-rate one). It was one of the most professionally enervating days of my life. For what Ken helped us realize was that, rather than writing a strategic plan, we were helping draft a new chapter in our institutional narrative.”
Steven Cairns, Conference Co-chair, NICHE 2017
“Thank you for delivering such a thought-provoking presentation for the NICHE conference participants. Having you join us remotely worked very well and was mentioned by several people as a highlight of the conference. The discussion tied in with eCampus Ontario made an impression and inspires several directions to move forward.”
Drew Ness, Dean International, Humber College
“Ken was a tremendous asset to the success of our Humber International retreat, not only for his skillful leadership of the workshop, but also for his exceptional planning and workshop development skills. Highly recommended!”
Phil Ker, Chief Executive, Otago Polytechnic (New Zealand)
“Great job, Ken – a fantastic start to the year for us, and not a hitch with the [Virtual Keynote] technology. The feedback was fantastic – staff appreciated the delivery as well as the content, so objectives fulfilled on both counts!”
Barry Telford, CEO of Sodexo Universities North America West, & President of Sodexo Canada
“Great presentation…..insightful, engaging, dynamic and on point. Ken has a very special ability to synthesize through mountains of data looking for insights, and within the insights he is able to demonstrate opportunities. Outstanding!”
Elita Paterson, Senior Administrative Assistant to the Executive Director, UR International, University of Regina
“Ken, I’m sure you hear this all the time, but… your style of sharing is engaging, clever, rich with humour and snazzy music, and of course with information people are hungry to hear! We chose WELL! Thank you for sharing your talents and passions with the CBIE crowd!”
George Khoury, Director Member Services, CBIE (Canadian Bureau for International Education)
“Thank you very much for joining us in Niagara Falls, your session was exactly what we had hoped for. Participants enjoyed the interactive format and were engaged throughout the session, it certainly was an “uplifting finale” to our conference.”
