Our Values: Integrity, Creativity, Courage, Impact, Entrepreneurialism


“The Alberta Insurance Council has retained the services of Finley and Associates for both the development and update of our Strategic Plan. Donna Finley facilitated sessions with the Board of Directors and management. Information was laid out perfectly, communication was open and focused and the discussions flowed smoothly.

Donna is extremely knowledgeable and very skilled at obtaining full and active engagement from all participants. The end result is a well defined strategic plan with clear and measurable objectives which will assist the Board and management in data driven decision making.  I would not hesitate to contract Finley and Associates for governance and strategic planning support and highly recommend their services.”
