ChangeMakers Names Stefan Moores as Chief Executive Officer
Moores’ appointment signals commitment to innovation, evolution and delivery on client outcomes
ChangeMakers, one of North America’s leading independent strategy and communications firms, announced Stefan Moores as Chief Executive Officer. The appointment reflects the firm’s ongoing evolution to an integrated, AI-native consultancy at the intersection of change, markets, and people.
“Stefan has the business acumen, entrepreneurial spirit and integrity that has earned him the trust of his team. We are energized by his leadership thus far and look forward to all that ChangeMakers will accomplish together under his guidance,” said Dale Tingley, Co-Managing Partner of the Canadian Business Growth Fund (CBGF) and Chair of the Board. “Under his leadership, ChangeMakers is well positioned to make waves in today’s evolving business market.”
“Our aspiration is simple: make ChangeMakers the most trusted partner for organizations and leaders who seek to achieve measurable business outcomes. Whether it’s tangible results like sales or revenue, or the harder to quantify cultural and reputational measures, communications is the engine that powers progress,” said Moores. “We will be on the cutting edge of AI, technology and innovation while keeping our focus on the human-centered relationships that build trust, drive results, and enhance reputation. That’s how we will deliver value every day.”
Moores’ vision for the company centers around the drive to positively impact every client’s business, from strategic planning through organizational change management and market execution. Whether navigating executive leadership changes and cultural challenges, or driving awareness and sales, ChangeMakers is the strategic partner that helps leaders execute well and move confidently.
“Whether change is the chosen path, or takes our clients by surprise, our role at ChangeMakers is to turn it into a strategic advantage,” said Moores. “We see massive opportunity in leveraging our expertise in crisis and risk management, organizational change management, public relations, marketing and social impact to change the way companies think about, execute and capitalize on change. We do that by applying all our different crafts with technology and human expertise to move with confidence.”
Moores is uniquely positioned to take ChangeMakers into the future. He brings decades of experience in business management, human resources, finance, investment and operations at leading management consulting, communications and public affairs firms across Canada and the U.S. Most recently, Moores served as Chief Operating Officer for ChangeMakers. He also previously served as President of Argyle and co-founder of The Castlemain Group. Moores holds an MBA from Stanford University Graduate School of Business, an MSC in International Politics, Economics and Business from The London School of Economics and Political Science, and a BA in Economics from Queen’s University.
“The next era of communications belongs to the doers — those who don’t ask if change can or will happen, but how to make it work. That’s the mindset we’re building at ChangeMakers,” added Moores.
ChangeMakers’ independence and cross-sector expertise allow it to deliver outcomes—not just activity—for the C-suite, senior leadership and the teams they lead. With more than 400 professionals across 10 North American offices, the firm offers end-to-end, sector-shaped solutions that help clients thrive through disruption and emerge stronger.
