OUR SERVICES
Training and technology can provide knowledge and tools... BUT are your people prepared to adopt them?
When trust is low, communication is unclear, or accountability is inconsistent:
-
New systems are underused.
-
Training does not transfer into real life.
-
Leaders struggle to create alignment.
-
Employees disengage or leave.
-
Investments produce less impact than expected.
UP addresses the human and cultural conditions (human infrastructure) that determine whether organizations succeed.
We help organizations move from:
-
Training to capability.
-
Friction to productive collaboration.
-
Intention to consistent execution.
-
Short-term intervention to lasting integration.
-
Workforce investment to measurable impact.
UP creates the environment - the human infrastructure - that allows everything to work.

ABOUT UP
We do not ask industry to change out of altruism; we provide the mindset, skillset and toolset required to minimize turnover and protect investment margins.
With our National credibility, International reach and on the ground experience, we provide a unique framework that combines effectiveness with cultural safety—setting a new benchmark for systemic change across Canada and the world.
UP the Status Quo is as a highly effective cultural and corporate translator.
Because we are a diverse, Canadian, Indigenous woman-owned business, we seamlessly bridge both worlds. We adapt proven, structured models, frameworks, tools, curriculum and decolonize them.
This provides a balanced framework that offers cultural safety for diversity and organizational rigor.
OUR PARTNERS
True systemic change cannot be achieved by recycling public funds back into dominant, established corporate consultancies. It requires actively building the economic capacity of diverse, domestic innovators.
Our partnership with Association of Métis, Non and Status Indians Saskatchewan (AMNSIS) stands out by moving away from standard, passive diversity initiatives by introducing a true wrap-around, proven strategy that addresses the root causes of workplace, community and family dyamnics.
By leveraging our International partnership with FranklinCovey, we translate abstract concepts into concrete actions that people understand and trust.
"Lana and her experienced team were knowledgeable and eager to support our organization with a solution on the ground. They were diligent in traveling to our remote communities and were successful in quickly building trust, confidence and performance shortly after their arrival. I recommend UP if you are committed to seeing real change."

"The Mînowin Khtwam Sihcikewin project gave them tools that they will utilize throughout their lives. Before making decisions about education, employment, or any long-term goals, people need to learn coping strategies, be aware of their inner strengths, be aware of who they are and where they come from. They also need to learn how to be positive about their abilities as a person. This program did that!"

“The more we can arm the incoming workforce with these leadership and communication skills, the better they will be in the long term. The quality of the programs are sufficient to carry the weight of high-level success...it’s definitely a plus in the hiring process.”
