"""I wish my boss did that."" It's a common response from leaders and team members alike to Achievable's core message: Focus on and acknowledge work done well.

With only 23 percent of employees engaged at work, leaders face what may seem like an unsurmountable challenge. How can they engage their team when they struggle to see beyond their own daily demands and challenges?

Disruptive in its simplicity, Achievable puts people first. There are no fancy theories. It doesn't inundate you with multiple things to do, and there's no master class needed. It's just simple, understandable people strategies that honour team members, tap their potential, improve performance, and increase profitability. Achievable is the solution to the disengagement epidemic.

Whether you're leading a company or a department within one, Achievable gives you the tools to engage, enable, and empower your people and demonstrate what's possible."

Fraser Wilson knows from experience what it takes to be a leader who inspires and motivates people in a sector that is heavily regulated, underfunded, and chastised by the media. Wilson was owner and CEO of OMNI Health Care when, in 2007, he sold it to a private equity firm impressed by its culture, brand, and financial performance. Wilson subsequently joined Chartwell Retirement Residences as vice president of long-term care operations. Under his leadership, his platform won awards within the company and the sector. Today, Wilson speaks at conferences to businesses and their leaders about creating a culture of possibility and potential based on the strategies laid out in Achievable.

Reviews for Achievable: A Simple and Proven Way to Create a Culture of Possibility and Potential

"""A refreshingly simple, yet profoundly impactful, approach to leadership. Achievable is concise, engaging, and filled with relatable stories. It will be a go-to resource for any aspiring leader."" -Capt. Michael Abrashoff, Author, It's Your Ship ""Fraser's focus on engaging, enabling, and empowering Chartwell's long-term care team was instrumental in increasing employee engagement and resident satisfaction survey results in our long-term care division. It also positioned the team to effectively and courageously meet the many challenges that we faced throughout the pandemic."" -Karen Sullivan, President and Chief Operating Officer, Chartwell Retirement Residences ""Achievable is a must read for leaders who want to engage team members, increase retention, and improve performance. I found it to be inspiring, motivational, and packed with relatable stories that can be easily implemented. It should be the next read for any leader looking to drive change."" -John Scotland, Chief Executive Officer, Steeves and Rozema Group ""I first met Fraser early in his CEO days, and when we discussed leadership practices, I described him as a 'sponge, ' constantly listening to and absorbing ideas from everywhere and everyone. In Achievable, Fraser demonstrates how he transformed the best of many leadership approaches to achieve remarkable outcomes at all levels of long-term care-and even through the pandemic! Achievable is an incredible resource for anyone looking for a practical, straightforward, and no-nonsense approach to honing their leadership skills, overcoming the challenges of 'too much to do, ' and helping others to be all they can be. A quick read that might be the best two hours of your leadership journey."" -Ron Martyn, Co-owner, Silver Meridian ""A fantastic read and practical guide for any leader that is looking for the 'secret' to fostering a high-performance organization."" -Brent Gingerich, Chairman and CEO, peopleCare Communities ""Achievable is a simple but powerful message to all leaders that it is our kindness, compassion, and individuality that truly make magic each and every day. Leadership is not about being the smartest person in the room but instead about our ability to get the most out of each and every person in the room."" -Shawn Riel, COO, Omni Quality Living ""An engaged team delivers better outcomes. Achievable reminds us of the importance of acknowledging work done well by our people, as opposed to focusing only on areas needing improvement. It's a simple and powerful way to increase engagement and impact the lives of team members and leaders in any sector, including health care."" -Salimah Walji-Shivji, Chief Operating Officer and General Counsel, AgeCare ""Fraser Wilson illuminates a simple truth that we, as leaders, intrinsically understand but frequently don't act upon: success comes through engaging, enabling, and empowering our people. Through his easy to understand and implement People First approach, he shows us how to unleash the potential in our teams to achieve outstanding results. The most wonderful part of his story is that, in addition to improving organizational performance, it also creates a more rewarding and joyful-indeed, 'life-giving'-experience for everyone."" -James Schlegel, CEO, Schlegel Villages"
