Leslie Fierling
DTM
BC, CANADAAs a leader in your career, do you erode the boundaries of your team or do they erode yours?
What will it take to provoke you to establish successful boundaries? It took Leslie Fierling not one but three wakeup calls to realize the devastating consequences of failing to set boundaries. Her experiences, combined with 26 years in business, have made her an expert on successfully implementing boundaries in the corporate world.
To build and maintain a team of positive, purposeful individuals, businesses and organizations need to foster a healthy work environment. Setting clear, strong boundaries is the key. Leslie teaches businesses and organizations how to prevent undesirable—even devastating—consequences by learning where and when to draw the line.
Underestimating the importance of setting boundaries can have a serious effect on financial outcomes and workplace relationships.
Leslie uses an upfront and no-nonsense style to speak to audiences looking to understand the who, what, why, and how of defining boundaries. They leave with the necessary tools for creating a more productive business by setting boundaries . . . boundaries that reflect who they are and what they really want—core values, beliefs, and aspirations.
In Leslie’s most requested keynote presentation, Business and Boundaries, audience members learn how to:
- Differentiate between compromise and settling.
- Set clear, strong boundaries with respect.
- Create less drama and have a more productive work environment.
- Foster strong relationships among employees and with clients.
- Maintain who they are and what they want to be while achieving success.
Only by setting boundaries will you create a healthy balance in your personal and professional life.
Along with Boundaries in Business, Leslie teaches workshops on executive health and wellness (health and wellness challenges specific to management); and public speaking for professionals.
Leslie is an entrepreneur, leader, and team builder in her own business. She has 24 years experience in public speaking and facilitating workshops. In 2011, she was the Provincial Champion (BC, Canada) of Impromptu Speaking.
In addition to her illustrious speaking career, Leslie holds a Bachelor of Science degree and has certificates in Education, Peer Counseling, and Nutrition. In her new book, Say Yes to Saying No—Set Your Boundaries for Success, Leslie teaches how to get inspired and “wake up, take charge and set boundaries to create a life of fulfillment.”

“Learning when to say no is probably the most important yet undervalued skill in personal and business success. Saying no requires clarity about your values and your strengths and the courage to act in spite of the ‘shoulds’ in our lives. Saying Yes to Saying No is an excellent road map to identifying why this area matters so much to personal and business success and how to get to the place of feeling confident in uttering that magical word! Anyone starting a business, or wondering why they are feeling stuck in their business or professional lives, should read Leslie’s book.”
