A legacy of leadership.
A national voice for change.
Michelle Sawa is an executive leader and a lifelong advocate for transformational change. Her journey began in the heart of Canadian education, where she served as a senior leader and a fierce voice for human-centered systems that empowered students, staff, and families alike. She has always believed that when we lead with compassion, we don’t just solve organizational problems—we create environments where people truly thrive.
That belief is rooted in a personal philosophy that mentorship is a two-way street. Throughout her career, Michelle has been dedicated to opening doors for others, building bridges across sectors, and fostering deep-rooted partnerships. From navigating the complexities of municipal governance to facilitating multi-sector corporate growth, she has cultivated a national network of leaders who are change agents in their own right.
Through Sawa Solutions, Michelle brings this collective power to individuals, teams, and organizations. She doesn’t work in isolation; she leverages an extensive network of corporate, municipal, and educational experts who share her commitment to courageous leadership and are ready to offer their insights to support this much-needed work. When you partner with Michelle, you gain a seasoned architect and a vast community of expertise dedicated to helping you move from friction to flow.
True leadership is about having the courage to open doors for others.
