  • Leadership Behaviours That Drive Growth
    Feb 8 2026

    What truly drives sustainable business growth?
    It’s not strategy alone, it’s leadership behaviour, culture, and the employer brand lived every day.

    In this episode of Blu Thread Conversations, hosts Leandra Harris and Stacy Parker of Blu Ivy Group sit down with Bill Williams, leadership expert, author of "Electric Life," and keynote speaker, to unpack the leadership behaviours that fuel performance, engagement, and growth.

    Together, they explore:
    • Why emotional intelligence is now a non-negotiable leadership skill
    • How leadership behaviour directly shapes culture, performance, and the bottom line
    • The real reason middle management breaks during growth and transformation
    • How leaders can build trust, accountability, and belonging across teams
    • Why employer brand is lived through managers — not marketing
    • How organizations can scale without losing their culture
    • What CEOs must do differently in 2026 to retain talent and drive results

    This conversation is essential viewing for:
    ✔ CEOs and executive teams
    ✔ HR and People leaders
    ✔ Employer brand and culture leaders
    ✔ Organizations scaling across Canada and the United States
    ✔ Companies navigating growth, transformation, or private equity investment

    At Blu Ivy Group, we help organizations build employer brands and cultures that attract, retain, and engage talent — not just in theory, but in everyday leadership behaviour.

  • From Culture to Impact: How People Strategy Drives Business Results
    Jan 6 2026

    Culture is no longer a “people initiative.” It’s a business strategy.

    In this episode of Blu Thread Conversations, Blu Ivy Group Co-Founders Leandra Harris and Stacy Parker sit down with Keri Fraser, Chief People Officer at Westland Insurance Group, to explore how culture, leadership, and employer brand are shaping business performance.

    Keri shares how Westland embedded culture into its five-year “2030 Level Up Plan,” why accountability is a form of care, and how leaders operationalize culture through systems, metrics, and everyday leadership behavior. The conversation dives into employer brand as alignment (not attraction), leadership credibility, manager enablement, engagement execution, and what people strategy must become in the age of AI, skills-based work, and real-time reputation.

    This episode is for CHROs, HR leaders, employer brand professionals, culture leaders, executives, and people strategy teams across Canada, the United States, and globally who are looking to move culture from intention to infrastructure.

    What you’ll learn in this episode:

    • Culture as a strategic business driver
    • Employer brand & EVP as performance enablers
    • Accountability, kindness, and leadership credibility
    • Manager enablement and culture systems
    • Engagement execution and transparency
    • Employer brand ROI and quality of hire
    • Skills-based organizations and talent marketplaces
    • The evolving role of HR in 2026 and beyond
