Building a New Not-for-Profit Organization

Paulette’s expertise with foundations and her facilitation skills helped our group make an important decision – our Foundation’s board enjoyed working with her

…I continue to be impressed with your unwavering enthusiasm, your management competence and your problem solving capabilities. I can only hope that organizations in need of project management, problem solving services and interim leadership will seek your experience and counsel. I certainly would not hesitate to recommend your firm to any association or related organization because I have no doubt that your contribution will only make them stronger and better grounded.

Working with Paulette is a pleasure. Her enthusiasm, leadership, organizational skills and connections in the business community would benefit any organization in need of project management assistance. I highly recommend her.

As President and CEO of Coca-Cola Ltd., I had the pleasure of working closely with Paulette for most of her 14 years as President and CEO of the Canadian Soft Drink Association. Some very positive words come to mind when I think about Paulette; these including caring, hardworking, committed to excellence, highly ethical, action-oriented, thorough, prompt and thoughtful. Paulette consistently demonstrated to me that she is a consummate professional, always prepared to go “above and beyond” to deliver the goods.

Paulette is a crackerjack leader. I have admired her work as Director, Business Network on Crime Prevention. She has provided direction and created momentum for a multi-stakeholder national initiative, and that is quite an achievement.

Through our common interest in effective, cost efficient residential recycling programs in Ontario, CSR worked with Paulette Vinette for more than a decade. Those who consider her for work in her new capacity as President of Solution Studio Inc. will never be disappointed. She carries out her responsibilities with intelligence, discipline, diplomacy and integrity. I would recommend her highly as an asset to any endeavour.
