About

What we do

ChangeMakers is a Canadian owned firm of over 400 strategists, communicators, analysts and engagement specialists to help organizations transform their missions and markets. Whether shaping influence, safeguarding reputation, expanding reach or advancing vision, we deliver strategic insight and compelling communications to turn ideas into impact, and challenges into lasting change.

What sets us apart

We combine the judgement of a senior advisory firm, the executional strength of an integrated communications agency and the intelligence of a modern, data-informed business to provide a single, connected client experience through their most impactful moments. No handoffs. No silos. No disconnected thinking.

What we believe

The best outcomes are built together: human-led and technology-enabled. That is the future of our industry. And ChangeMakers is leading it.

What we value

Connected: Connection is built through meaningful, respectful relationships — with our teams, partners, and the communities our work shapes. We speak with honesty. That’s where trust begins.

Bold: Bold means showing up for the complex problems and hard conversations. It’s the courage to stay in the room when things get uncomfortable. That’s where we’re needed most.

Creative: Creativity is our mindset. It shapes every opportunity we touch, every solution we build. We ask what if, and we don’t stop until the best solution emerges
