Individual Mentoring

Ray now Owner and President of Ray Williams Associates, a private company based in Vancouver, B.C., providing personal and executive mentoring and professional speaking services to clients internationally. He is also known as one of Canada’s top CEO Coaches.

Ray Williams was born in a Prisoner of War Camp as a prisoner of the Japanese in World War II in Hong Kong. His family spent almost 4 years in Stanley Camp. This experience of extreme adversity had a great influence on Ray and his understanding of what it takes to persevere, survive, be successful and be happy.

Ray spent much of his childhood in Hong Kong and Australia and moved to Vancouver, Canada at the age of 6.  He attended public school in Vancouver and went on to get his B.A., M.A. and worked towards a Ph.D. at the University of British Columbia, studying English, Psychology and History. Ray began his professional career as a high school teacher, and quickly moved on to become a District Curriculum Coordinator, Secondary School Principal, Director of Human Resources and Superintendent of Schools.  Ray took early retirement from the education business and established a management consulting firm, providing services to clients in Canada and the U.S. During this time Ray also served as Executive Vice President of Premier Career Management Group in Vancouver.

“Ray is a true professional in his space. He brings leading edge concepts to issues and delivers results. One of the best Executive Coaches out there.”—Senior Vice President, Agrium Corporation.
“Ray has deep knowledge and considerable experience with both professional and personal development. He has great intuition, which when combined with his experience, enables him to get to the central issues. 
Ray is able to build trust and provide people with the confidence they need to face their strengths and shortcomings because he is genuine and empathetic. 

His approach enables people to establish a foundation for growing both personally and professionally. I highly recommend Ray.” –Ian McLeod, General Counsel, Teligence Corporation
“I have used Ray for both personal coaching and coaching for senior colleagues. Coaching with Ray was different than any coaching I had previously received. Ray has developed a comprehensive program that goes deep into understanding who you are, where you want to go, who you want to be and what might be getting in the way of your achieving that. He is patient yet firm, wise, consistently non-judging and ultimately caring. His coaching has helped in all areas of my life, as a senior executive, a parent, a spouse and a friend. In many ways it feel like I have a new lease on life. If you are serious about facing your challenges and want to go past reading another self-improvement book or trying the latest fad to truly understanding yourself and your purpose, I would highly recommend Ray.”—Scott Orth, Project Manager – Global Human Development, Golder Associates Inc.
“I am so grateful to have Ray in my life. The situation which brought me to Ray’s coaching was one of tremendous turmoil – with his guidance I now realize that this part of my life was necessary in discovering my true authentic self. Through this work my confidence and value of my life has exponentially increased. These results shine through my personal life and business success each and everyday.”–Natalie Kathleen, Owner, Sienna Ray & Co. New York City
“On behalf of the team, we all really enjoyed the opportunity to benefit from your experience. You made a profound impact on all the attendees.”–Ron Hensel, Regional Project Director, The Westin Hotels and Resorts
“Ray has a rare gift for mixing an acute understanding of you as a person and combining that with an aptitude for business and career success principles. I personally wanted to work with Ray as an Executive Coach to help take me to the next level in business. What I experienced instead, was deep work into my mindset and psychological mastery of habits and beliefs that were holding me back as well as opportunities within me to grow. With Ray’s advice and wise counsel has helped me to focus on prioritizing myself in order to serve a bigger audience and deliver to my treasured clients and that’s been hugely helpful for a greater awareness of how I can grow my business too. He has a vast array of tools he uses to ensure you get the most out of your sessions and I only wish were able to have more in person sessions (even though Skype worked great) as I know Ray also has more skills in reading energy in person and has much more to offer that I haven’t even begun to experience yet. I highly recommending investing in coaching with Ray if you truly want to experience results that will last a lifetime and transform your life.” Natalie Sisson, Owner, Natalie Sisson, Inc., Author of The Suitcase Entrepreneur
“Ray has been a very dedicated and hard working director. His commitment to the different duties on the Board, the Executive Committee of the Board, the Leaders of Tomorrow, Community Affairs Committee and Policy Council is second to none. He is one of those people who I could call and ask for his help and he always gave his full commitment to everything he was asked to do. And he was asked often. I personally will miss working with Ray. I’ll miss his considerable contribution, his dedication, his willingness and his responsiveness.”– Ken Martin, CEO. Blue Cross and Chair, Vancouver Board of Trade
“If you are finding yourself stuck in any aspect of your life and that is preventing you from reaching to full potential you have within you, then working with Ray is your absolute, guaranteed solution. Ray Williams will lead you on a journey of a lifetime. Be prepared to dig deep, be completely honest (with him and yourself), and roll up your sleeves to do some hard work. Ray’s skill set if phenomenal! His background in various fields and dedication to continued learning and research allow him to approach your coaching sessions from many angles and perspectives, and find the ones that work for you. I have worked with several coaches in the past. I was frustrated, knowing I had self-limiting beliefs (they even told me I had them!); and I wasn’t living my life authentically. None of my previous coaches could seem to help me locate, excavate, resolve and leave those limiting beliefs behind. Which left me even more frustrated. Ray has been the exception and now I live my life authentically, with purpose and from a completely different place from within myself. I am no longer stuck, have learned how to unstick myself, and am moving at breakneck speed to the life I desire. If offered the opportunity to work with Ray, trust that it is the opportunity of a lifetime, and know it isn’t an offer made to everyone. Get on board and take the journey to a place where all that you dream about is reality. Thank you for everything this year. I am a loss for words as to how much my life has changed and how much I have grown. I am so grateful for your guidance and unconditional commitment.”–Karley Cunningham, Owner, BigBold Brands.
“Let me say “thanks” for the many years of service to VBOT, and for the support you have shown me, personally, as I settled into this role. I wish you nothing but the best wherever your journey takes you.”–Iain J.S. Black ,President and CEO, The Vancouver Board of Trade

“It’s hard to convey how much value Ray has delivered to various aspects of my life. I’ve been working with Ray for nearly 6 months and my personal and professional growth has reached levels I only dreamed of. He brought so much clarity and awareness into my life and helped me realize my potential, strengthen my challenges and has taught me priceless techniques for enhancing performance. Ray has an incredibly calming nature. He creates a space where you can be open in a completely non-judgemental environment where you feel safe to break down personal barriers and gain insight on your inner being.”—Samantha Skelly, Health and Wellness Coach, Author

Although I am lucky enough to have the job of my dreams, I do believe it necessary, each day, to continually strive to be better. To do this, I have learned that it is not only necessary to truly understand yourself and others, but be content within yourself and every aspect of your life, in order to be an outstanding leader. Ray has helped me in this continuing journey with his well-researched philosophy, his outstanding ability to listen, and his experience in applying psychology to strategic business decisions. I highly recommend Ray to those executives who not only have reached the pinnacle of success, but want to continue to make a difference, both in their life and in their continuing career pursuits.” –Robin Hemmingsen, Dean, School of Business, BCIT .Board Member, Vancouver Board of Trade

Finally, I am happy and fulfilled in my life for the first time.”–Michael Daingerfield, Principal, Daingervoice Productions.

“I can highly recommend Ray from my 6 months working with him as my career coach. Ray has a warm style, tremendous skill in providing both critical analysis and support for whatever issues you are working though, a nice balance of sensitivity and objectivity, and enough wisdom to fill a room. Tapping into some pretty fundamental human skills and capacities, and giving you perspective on how to move ahead, Ray is a consummate professional.”–Vince Verlaan, Principal, Golder Associates
“Working with Ray is an incredible experience. He sees what your strengths are. Then he creates a game plan that works to your strengths and provides instruction along the way to ensure you stay on your game.”–Kim Molby, Owner and President, Railway Parts, Inc.

“Ray Williams has been an invaluable mentor and inspiration in helping me understand myself better, and the effect that I can have on the people around me, particularly under stressful situations. Ray has helped me understand the true values and meaning of how trust, respect, integrity, compassion, and leadership are the pillars to success and happiness. He has also helped me to understand and appreciate that life’s challenges and stress points should be considered experiences to make one stronger and more resilient to manage future and as-yet unknown challenges. Through Ray’s mentoring support and insightful perspectives during the past several months, I have learned the true meaning of “it is what it is”.–Don Gamble, Principal / Senior Environmental Planner Golder Associates Ltd.

“I had the good fortune to have Ray as my mentor while I was going through one of the more challenging times of my life-both personally and professionally. Ray acted as a mentor, coach and friend through this time allowing me to look at the situation, as well as myself, in a different more positive light. Ray is a master of his craft – everything from personal coaching and mindfulness to organizational transformation and leadership – and this was very apparent in my experience with him. Ray took the time, on top of his very busy schedule, to teach me about and lead me to become more mindful; he brought to light areas of weakness for me that I was not willing/able to see myself and helped me to improve upon them; he showed me strengths that I did not realize I had and helped me to harden them. I emerged from our final session together confident in my abilities, content in my relationships with others, and on track to start a very exciting next phase of my life – a place that I would have struggled to get to without Ray’s help. I would recommend working with Ray to anyone that feels that they are at an impasse in their life. Ray will guide you to see the many alternate routes to either overcoming or completely avoiding whatever may be in your way. He will allow you to move mindfully but with a strengthened resolve to reach your goal – however daunting it may seem.”—Sophia Coulter, Customer Support Coordinator, AltaGas Ltd.

“I first started working with Ray back in February and it has been an incredibly valuable experience as I prepare to start my career. Our time together has helped me become far more self aware, confident, and comfortable with who I am. 

I definitely recommend Ray to anyone who wants more from life, either personally or in their career (especially students looking to add a personal development element to their education). 

I have the utmost respect for Ray and cannot wait for the next time we get to work together. Thank you Ray!”—Sean Hepple, Project Manager, Waste Management Corporation
