About Kelly Laverty:

I have a passion for helping business leaders and owners achieve their full potential and I am dedicated to enhancing the profitability of businesses of all sizes and all industries. I have a proven track record of success in marketing, product management and strategic business planning having delivered outstanding results throughout my career. As your business coach I will h

elp you grow and manage your business. I will assist you in understanding and implementing proven business concepts, which are guaranteed to generate a ‘Return On Investment’. I will work with you to develop plans in key areas related to achieving success, such as leadership, management, delegation, sales, marketing, productivity, growth, decision making and business plan ex*****on. I have successfully managed and coached teams both professionally and during my personal time. In addition to that, throughout my corporate career I have had some very powerful mentors work with me to accelerate my performance and learn best of practice principles from them. I have previously served as a member of the Board of Directors for the Crowchild Hockey Association, and the Vertigo Mystery Theatre. During my tenure as a Board member at Vertigo the theatre underwent significant change in moving to its current location requiring $5M in fundraising to be completed. I currently serve as a Board member of Santa’s Secret Service, a not for profit organization committed to helping isolated senior members of our community, the Calgary Executive Association, and the Silver Springs Golf and Country Club where I am also the Secretary/Treasurer. I have over 30 years experience with some of Canada’s leading Enterprises including Bell Canada, Nortel Networks, TELUS, and the ATCO Group of Companies. I have assisted these corporations in achieving and exceeding their corporate goals by providing leadership in the highly competitive Canadian and U.S. markets, being tenacious in securing new business, developing and launching new products and services, building loyalty and forging strong relationships with internal and external business partners. My functional responsibilities have included;

Business Development
Marketing
Strategic Planning
Product Management
Materials Management
Product Development

In these roles I was accountable for revenue ranging from $500,000 - $500,000,000 and the profitability associated with the products and services under my direction. In each of these capacities, it was my vision, my passion and the ability to work within a team at all levels that drove my success.

Ever notice how a fresh perspective can bring clarity to even the most complex business challenges? I’ve seen it time and again, when business owners step out of their routine and talk through their ideas with someone who’s been there, new solutions start to appear. Sometimes it’s just about having the right questions asked, or seeing a different approach to leadership and growth.

If you’ve ever felt like you’re making decisions in a vacuum, you’re not alone. What’s the most valuable advice you’ve received from someone outside your business? I’d love to hear your stories.

Ever notice how a good conversation with peers can spark a new way of looking at your business? Sometimes, just hearing an outside perspective helps you spot opportunities or challenges you might have missed on your own. That's something we've seen time and again with local business owners who step out of their usual routines and connect with someone who’s been in their shoes.

If you’ve ever felt like you’re making decisions in a vacuum, you’re not alone. There’s real value in talking things through with someone who can offer a fresh, experienced take, especially when you’re aiming to grow or streamline your business.

How do you usually get outside input for your business? Do you have a go-to person or group, or do you prefer to tackle things solo? I’d love to hear how you approach these moments.

Ever notice how the best business conversations often happen when you bring different perspectives to the table? I’ve seen time and again that having a sounding board can make all the difference, especially when you’re navigating new decisions or planning for growth.

Sometimes, just talking things through with someone who gets the challenges of running a business helps you see opportunities or risks you might have missed on your own. That’s why I’m curious: who do you turn to when you’re weighing big choices for your business? Do you have a go-to advisor, or do you rely on your own instincts?

Share your approach in the comments, let’s learn from each other’s experiences.

Ever notice how growing your business can sometimes feel like you’re just adding more headaches instead of more success?

It’s easy to get caught up in the excitement of expansion and accidentally overlook small details that end up costing you big. Many business owners run into the same stumbling blocks when they try to scale, only realizing it when profit margins start to shrink or operations get tangled. The good news? Spotting these mistakes early makes a huge difference.

Ever feel like your business should be moving faster, but you can't quite put your finger on what's slowing things down?

Sometimes it's not the big issues that hold us back, but the small, hidden snags in our daily routines. These little bottlenecks can quietly sap your team's energy and cut into profits before you even notice. Taking a closer look at your day-to-day operations might reveal a few surprises, and fixing them could be the key to smoother growth.

Mid-year is a powerful time to pause and ask: are we truly gaining momentum, or are we just staying busy?

As priorities expand and urgency takes over, teams can slip into reactive mode—spending more time responding than executing. The result? Fragmented focus, stalled progress, and strategy that slowly drifts off course.

Real momentum doesn’t come from doing more. It comes from protecting focus long enough for meaningful work to move forward.

Now is the time to recalibrate, clarify priorities, and make sure your team is still focused on what matters most.
