People Strategy

I had the opportunity of working with Chelsea for over three years. She was instrumental for my team and I in helping us roll out our People Deal (EVP)…and also helped us develop our ED&I strategy and 3 year roadmap. Her approach was always proactive, solution-oriented, and marked by clear, strategic thinking, which greatly benefited our work and helped us meet challenging deadlines.

- Rossana Broderick, VP, Learning & Organizational Change Management

 Workforce Strategy

Chelsea collaborated with my team to create targeted talent marketing programs for digital, technology and data talent. Her deep knowledge of the employer branding discipline led to the creation of recruitment marketing strategies that delivered real results. She partnered with executives and their teams to amplify cultural advocacy on social media platforms like LinkedIn, which was incredibly valuable in attracting top talent.

- Gillian Whitebread, Head of Human Resources

Culture Leadership

Drift's guidance on the subject of psychological safety—an area they are deeply passionate about and well-versed in—facilitated the participation, acceptance, and confidence of our Executive and Senior Leadership. This was instrumental in successfully rolling out initiatives to our teams and employees.

- William Schmidt, Retired VP, Technology

Equity, Diversity & Inclusion

It was a privilege to work with Chelsea of Drift Consulting on the development of our internal Equity, Diversity and Inclusion (ED&I) program. Her expertise was evident as she seamlessly benchmarked our current state and collaborated with us to craft a forward-thinking, multi-year plan. She demonstrated both professionalism and a personable approach in defining the steps necessary for us to mature our ED&I program, always ensuring clarity and consensus.

 

- Branko Boras, Director, Supply Chain Services

Drift Consulting

What we do:

  • Strategic Alignment & Cultural Integrity: I use a human-centred framework to architect resilient cultures, upgrading every stage of the employee experience. By aligning internal identity with authentic brand narratives, I ensure organizational values are lived, not just stated—transforming "talent" into a mission-driven community.

  • Knowledge Mobilization & Systemic Impact: I bridge the gap between siloed expertise and operational execution. By facilitating the rapid transfer of critical knowledge across teams, I synthesize specialized insights into actionable strategies that drive business objectives and build collective organizational intelligence.
