Linda spent her early career as a lawyer in both private and public practice, however, she found that her practice gravitated toward labour relations. For more than 20 years she has represented employers in negotiations, mediation and arbitration, developed and implemented training programs for supervisors and managers, and advised management personnel and Human Resource professionals dealing with the vast array of employee issues that regularly arise within a workforce.
Linda has observed that employers need to be more proactive in addressing performance issues and particularly in providing psychologically healthy workplaces and she enjoys working with organizations to do that. She is a certified trainer of a program that helps employers manage issues where workplace performance and behaviour intersect with mental or emotional health concerns.
Linda now balances her work time to allow for community work, for relishing the quiet retreat of her cottage overlooking Boughton Island, hiking and other outdoor pursuits.
