Testimonials

I am proud to recommend Tanja and Potentia HR! Through coaching she encouraged me to speak up and show how the role of HR was much more than an administrative position. She was a big supporter and brought new ideas from her experience to programs I was working on including performance management and building a coaching culture with our leaders. Tanja was always willing to share her vast knowledge and her resources. Through our time working together she showed a passion for Human Resources that was contagious. I am thankful for the mentor/mentee time we shared together and we now have her involved in providing coaching to our leadership as well as engaging our team in various workshops.

I met Tanja as a student in the Master of Management program at UBC in 2017. She was tasked with individual leadership coaching and instructing career development portions of the program. Tanja posed the right questions at the right time to support me in making tough decisions. I have been able to look at challenges in a constructive way and my confidence has grown because of her guidance. I have improved at handling difficult conversations with the tools Tanja has taught me.

I relied on Tanja for career development coaching for the better part of 2 years, during which time she listened to the challenges that I was facing, helped me identify career development strategies, and coached me through their execution. Her coaching assisted me in re-organizing priorities within my personal and professional life, focused my training and development priorities which have led to more free time at home and a promotion at work

We brought Tanja in from a consulting and best practices perspective during a season of transition in our Talent department. She did not need long to get up to speed with our realities, and was very helpful in fulfilling urgent needs, and longer range blueprint requests. She has a very friendly demeanour, combined with a get it done mindset. I would recommend engaging Tanja’s years of HR experience for your organization needs.

My experience with Tanja as a candidate for a senior management role was extremely positive.
