Rising Stars finding
opportunity in crisis
In the Chinese language, the word crisis is com-
posed of two characters, one representing danger
and the other opportunity, goes the old motiva-
tional speakers’ cliche.
While the translation isn’t exact, it makes a
point that those who believe in themselves can
survive hard times and come out ahead of the
game with a little hard work.
There is no question this year’s class of Rising
Stars is making the best of the opportunities present
in the current oil and gas downturn, which is now
going into its second year with no signs of abating.
This year we have a southern Alberta country
girl and former basketball player who is helping
her company’s clients work through the environ-
mental and regulatory red tape more efficiently.
We have the Canadian Association of Petroleum
Producers’ manager of media relations who cut
her teeth working with Aboriginal groups in the
remote North.
We have a chief financial officer looking to join
the ranks of what they in the investment com-
munity call “an experienced management team.”
We have a small-town Ontarian who came
west to be a paramedic but instead found her
calling as a land broker.
We have another easterner who made it in the
western oilpatch and is now working to bring oil
and gas development back to Quebec.
We have a former railroader who is now mak-
ing it in the pipeline business.
And we have a corporate headhunter who works
to find executives with experience who also fit a
client’s corporate culture.
All seven of this year’s Rising Stars are heav-
ily invested in making the communities in which
they live and work better places.

3. Having grown up in small-town Ontario amid black bears, black flies
and the natural beauty of Toronto’s cottage country, 18-year-old Kim
Lindsay took a leaf out of her family’s book of independence and
loaded up a 32-foot U-Haul, drove out to Calgary with her boyfriend
at the time and set about becoming a paramedic in the shadow of
the Rocky Mountains.
That was the plan at least. Coming up against a scarcity of emergency-
and health-related jobs after her first year at SAIT Polytechnic ran her
off that path and into a finance and investment job until, lo and behold,
a friend mentioned working in oil and gas. She sent out some resumes
and collected two offers from land brokers.
“I got a really good vibe about Britt Land,” Kim recalls of the com-
pany that today is the only woman-led land brokerage of its size in
western Canada.
That vibe has now carried her though 11 years, from starting as a junior
land administrator to her current role as a land operations manager with
responsibilities for client relations, quality assurance and key business
development areas. Her ability to think on her feet, find smart solutions
and meet tight deadlines are qualities that she now shares through inter-
nal training and mentoring.
Kim’s bold and unconventional leadership finds its strength in remain-
ing true to her independent streak.
“Dayna [Morgan, Rising Star class of 2013] has been my mentor. She
does things a certain way, and she’s good at her job, so I followed in her
footsteps, but I’ve always struggled with having to do it like Dayna does,”
Kim says. “So I’ve had to find my own way. This allows me to be a better
leader in a professional environment.”
A quality that comes naturally to Kim and drives her community
involvement is her almost unconditional support for people in times of
need. Consequently, her choice of charities is typically one of those that are
dear to her friends. For example, last year she coordinated an impromptu
Parkinson’s awareness walk in support of Britt Land’s chief executive offi-
cer, Ray Ramsay, as he was admitted for deep brain stimulation surgery
to treat the neurological symptoms of this disease.
Kim helped bring together the Britt Land team with videos of care
and encouragement across the company’s satellite offices, Team Ramsay
T-shirts and red balloons. The office then took to the streets to hand out
tulips and raise awareness and funds for Parkinson’s disease.
Alongside her past support of the Calgary Children’s Hospital, can-
cer walks and the community volunteering work that happens monthly
at Britt Land, Kim is an advocate for those who are sometimes the most
vulnerable in our society.
“Animals are dear to me. Not everybody loves animals. People love
people for the most part,” says Kim, who volunteers at a dog rescue pro-
gram. “Adopting animals is kind of scary because you don’t know their
history. But I want to give them a better story. They deserve a better story.”

4. There’s a transition happening in Canada’s oilpatch. A new generation
is emerging, and when the industry comes out of this downturn, it will
be reaching for the reigns, says John Pantazopoulos, whose professional
aspiration is to step up among the ranks of the so-called “experienced
management team.”
Oil and gas company websites are filled with references to experience
because resources plays are expensive, and experience is the closest
thing to proof that things will go well for investors. You can be smart
and have good ideas, but you still face an uphill battle if you’re missing
this essential ingredient.
Financer: “Great, so you want money. What have you done?”
Newbie: “Oh you know, this and that.”
Financer: “But have you bought and sold a company and made money
for investors?”
Newbie: “Not yet.”
Financer: “Okay, call me in five years.”
John has been a chief financial officer for eight years now, and he’s
a founding member of Tangle Creek Energy, but he says he’s still “not
there yet. You have to have a notch on your belt and show that you’ve
had a winner.”
Privately held Tangle Creek will most likely be that notch for John.
There’s no ambiguity about its build-and-sell strategy. How that will play
out through these tough times, though, is still uncertain for the Greece-
born, Canada-raised exec. One thing is clear—sitting back and riding it
out isn’t in John’s DNA.
When the province announced a royalty review, he joined a Canadian
Association of Petroleum Producers (CAPP) committee and helped prepare
industry recommendations for improving Alberta’s royalty program. He
also serves on another CAPP committee that deals with financial issues.
And in his home neighbourhood of West Springs in Calgary, where he
lives with his wife and two young sons, a school shortage prompted his
engagement in a parent group that gathered 5,000 signatures in support
of building and funding schools. The group presented the signatures to
the Alberta Legislature and even met with Jim Prentice several times
when he was premier.
“We fought tooth and nail to get funding, and I think it worked because,
at the end of the day, our school is now being built,” John says.
He also volunteers with the Calgary Board of Education on an audit
committee. He’s on the naming committee of the middle school in his
community. In fact, education has become a bit of a mission in his life.
“Education is the key to society,” John says. “It’s a core fundamental
institution. If you want to see that in action, go to the first day of school. As
you walk in there, you see that the whole community has come together.
It doesn’t matter who you are and where you’re from or what your back-
ground is, they all come together in the school in order to learn and work
towards a common goal.”

5. From the time she spent in the far north, Chelsie Klassen has a jacket
made by an Inuvialuit elder that has animal fur from all the places in
the Northwest Territories where she worked, communities with stac-
cato names that roll off her tongue like a distant drum roll—Ulukhaktok,
Paulatuk, Tuktoyuktuk, Aklavik, Inuvik.
“I was engaging with the communities around Imperial Oil’s Arctic off-
shore drilling. You were the first on the ground. It was awesome,” Chelsie
says with disarming enthusiasm, a quality that made her an ideal land-
man, then a stakeholder and aboriginal engagement specialist, and now
a media relations manager with the Canadian Association of Petroleum
Producers (CAPP).
She’s so likeable in fact that she’s never even had a gun waved in her
face and been told to get off someone’s land while negotiating land agree-
ments for ExxonMobil’s LNG project in Alaska, the last American frontier,
the land of the brave and the free, and the home state of Sarah Palin.
“But one of my colleagues had a gun pulled out on him,” she says. “His
response to me was, ‘Well, I walked on his property, so you would expect
that could happen.’ I just looked at him and thought, ‘Really?’”
Chelsie’s seven years with Imperial Oil/ExxonMobil were a rodeo ride
that started straight out of university and bounced her from Calgary to the
Northwest Territories to Cold Lake to Alaska and finally back to Calgary.
This exposure to so many different cultures and types of oil and gas
activity gave her the confidence to take on something “more high level.”
CAPP provides that new challenge for her. In return, CAPP gets a more
responsive public image and a shift in industry tone on climate change
and the status quo.
“A highlight for me so far,” says Chelsie, who just returned from one of
her many business trips—this one to Ottawa, where she met with minis-
ters and government officials—“was representing the energy industry in
Paris last year. I think we’re in a time of new technology and innovation
around greenhouse gas emissions and reductions…. I don’t think it was
ever acknowledged that we as an industry are proactive in these solutions.”
Her advocacy work with CAPP is, in itself, a form of wider service that
benefits not just the industry but all Albertans and Canadians, but Chelsie
is also passionate about mentoring. She has always made herself avail-
able to young people seeking advice. Now that she is more geographically
settled, she has formalized the process by joining the Calgary Immigrant
Women’s Association.
“Right now I am mentoring this lady who is very impressive. She’s 15
years old. Her name is Eunice. She comes from Nigeria, and she’s prepar-
ing herself to apply to Canadian universities,” Chelsie says.
True to her own experience when choosing an education, which started
with nursing before redirecting to economics, Chelsie’s advice is to “look
at the whole process…not just job security. Find something that you’re
passionate about.”

6. Angela Thompson has never been afraid to show up as herself. Phrases
like “Fake it till you make it” are irrelevant because she has known she
wanted a business career since she was 15 years old. She has the quiet
self-assurance of the eldest of four siblings. And she possesses the work
ethic and leadership sense of a former high-level basketball athlete on
a scholarship track.
“When I started my career with the ERCB [now the Alberta Energy
Regulator], I was really focused. I had a degree, and I was really good at
basketball, but that’s basically all I had to offer. I knew nothing about regu-
latory matters,” she says with candor. “But I embraced what was given
to me and quickly realized this was a growing market and that it was a
place where I could have a long-term career.”
The oil and gas industry in 2005 was booming. Angela learned the regu-
latory ropes at the ERCB and then went to Gemini, a traditional engineering,
procurement and construction management company, which as it turned
out, wasn’t quite ready to step into the regulatory and environmental busi-
ness. So Angela stepped over to consulting engineering company Hatch
and launched its regulatory/environment business. A year later, Gemini
was ready and invited her back to do the same.
“In 2011, I put together a strategic plan at Gemini to grow the regulatory/­
environment business into something pretty special and great,” she says.
“We acquired two organizations as part of that strategic plan, which
was one of my biggest milestones—executing that plan and seeing
it through the integration of these really great businesses in such a
short period of time.”
Growing up in Bow Island, Alta., Angela was profoundly influenced
by her mom, who raised four children on her own. Her personality was
also shaped by her grandmother, “a fearless, fiery redhead” who encour-
aged her to have the self-confidence to be herself and “shatter the glass
ceiling.” Her grandmother, who passed away seven years ago, inspired
Angela to become a board member of the Golden Age Club.
“Seniors, at times, are overlooked in a lot of ways, and it gave me great
personal satisfaction that my grandparents played a very large role in the
community they lived in, so I wanted to give back in that way,” she says.
A loyal supporter of the University of Lethbridge, where both her sis-
ters were also educated, Angela is the vice-president of the Women’s
Basketball Alumni Association there.
Gemini also takes community involvement seriously.
“How your business functions today within the community is almost
your reputation and your brand,” she says. “When we hire people, we look
at whether they will fit our core values—do they value the community,
the people and the relationships we have?”

7. Seeing the good life his father made of a 30-year career with Canadian
Pacific Railway (CP), Matthew Goegan thought he would do well to follow
in his footsteps. So with business degree in hand, he took a job with CP.
He even enjoyed his time there for a couple years until he started to feel
like he would never emerge from his father’s shadow.
“I remember being called Vince—my dad’s name—three times in one
meeting,” Matthew recalls with a laugh. “That’s when I realized that I
needed to figure out my own path.”
So he left the iconic Canadian transport company, said goodbye to
friends and family in Ontario, travelled across the country to Calgary and
nailed down a job with, well, another iconic Canadian transport company.
This time it was Enbridge.
“The transportation link-up seemed a good fit,” he says.
Spending his days working on data analytics and trends, assessing
how the company executes major projects compared to benchmarks,
identifying course corrections and providing reviews to senior manage-
ment, Matthew has built a career in one of the fastest-growing companies
in the oil and gas industry. What he particularly appreciates about this
work is its human dimension and the opportunity to help develop the
abilities of his team.
For example, he is encouraging a person hired into an administrative
function to leverage her foreign education and shift into a more fulfill-
ing higher-level role. He has also helped an introverted work group step
up to the challenge of taking on a higher profile and delivering presenta-
tions to management. Matthew’s formula of empowerment comes down
to extending opportunities and setting out manageable stepping stones
that lead to clearly defined goals.
His passion for personal development isn’t confined to his workplace.
As a volunteer with Junior Achievement, a not-for-profit organization that
delivers experiential programs to youth on the topics of financial liter-
acy, work readiness and entrepreneurship, Matthew often spends a half
day or longer talking to students at local high schools.
“I remember going through school and having people come in and
tell us what the world is like after you get out of school,” he says. “It was
always interesting to me, so I do that and try to give students a perspec-
tive they might not get otherwise. Hopefully that can put them in a better
position going forward.”
The prospect of spending a day with a roomful of hormonally amped-up
adolescents might strike the fear of God in some, but Matthew, who loves
kids and has two young children of his own, thrives on the opportunity.
He is comfortable in front of groups and makes it engaging with interac-
tive exercises and discussions that help students understand finances,
budgeting and other topics.
Part of that facility comes from the night courses in supply chain logis-
tics that he also teaches.
“As you can see, I like to talk.”

8. By helping her parents build a cottage in Quebec and later a house in Nova
Scotia, Laura Weeden learned how to drywall, run electrical wiring and
use power tools early on. When she reached high school with fingers and
limbs still intact, her interest in building things fuelled an inner debate
about whether to study architecture or engineering.
“I like to know how things work, how things manage to stand, how to
drill wells. Being able to answer some of those questions is what drove
me to engineering,” Laura says.
After a brief stint in the construction industry as a project coordi-
nator, the lure of the west brought her to Alberta and landed her in the
oilpatch. Her last three years with Baker Hughes have allowed Laura to
couple her talent for conveying technical innovations with her people
skills. As a salesperson, she has opened new markets for Baker Hughes’
drilling services product line across Canada, from Alberta’s Viking to
Anticosti Island, Que.
The Calgary branch of the Society of Petroleum Engineers recognized
Laura last year with an Outstanding Young Professional Award for her
leadership in the organization’s regular and new events, increased par-
ticipation and general involvement. What Laura considers a particular
high point in her career, though, is her work in advancing the oil and gas
industry in Quebec.
“I was asked to speak at some conferences in Quebec about both the
technical and the environmental dimensions of drilling,” she says. “There
are a lot of new technologies and innovations that reduce costs and emis-
sions and lower your impact in general. In the first year, I did a broad
overview of what’s available in the industry, from drilling to fracking.
“This past year, I was a panellist with two other companies, answer-
ing questions about the impacts and applications of various technologies
and why a person would pick one technology over another. It was very
exciting to be a part of that.”
In the community, Laura has been volunteering as a Girl Guide leader
for the past three years, mentoring girls ages 11–14 in the Pathfinder pro-
gram. Her troop regularly volunteers at organizations such as the Calgary
Food Bank, Grow Calgary, various women’s shelters and Inn from the
Cold. Under Laura’s guidance, each member of her troop has received the
Canada Cord—the Girl Guide’s highest distinction.
“When I moved here from Halifax, I didn’t really know anyone, and I
wanted to get involved in the community and set down roots. Girl Guides
is a program that I did as a kid, and my mom was a leader, so I saw it as
an opportunity to go from mentee to mentor,” Laura says.
“What’s really great about the Girl Guides is that you touch different
aspects of philanthropy…. Even if you live in a community all your life,
you might not see how other people live, so I think it’s important that the
girls have these experiences and help others.”

9. The energy industry, like any sector, is only as good as the people who run
it, and Morgan Campbell plays a key role in filling some of the industry’s
top positions. As an executive search professional, he has helped shape
the executive teams of numerous companies and organizations, includ-
ing the Canadian Energy Pipeline Association and the Alberta Energy
Regulator (AER).
Finding the right people for the top jobs is critical. Under new leader-
ship and after the amalgamation of the AER’s regulatory duties with wider
governmental responsibilities formerly overseen by Alberta Environment
and Sustainable Resource Development, Alberta’s regulatory system is,
arguably, in a better place today than in the past, and it is regarded by
other jurisdictions as an example to emulate.
“A lot of the work that we do changes an organization in one respect or
another. If you screw up a CEO search, and the company’s market value
drops by $2 million, that’s a big deal,” Morgan says.
On another level, in Calgary’s tight-knit oilpatch, executive search
firms provide a third-party layer so that companies aren’t seen directly
recruiting from their competitors. But the best executive search firms
also leverage geographic reach, network and a rigorous screening effort
to understand their client’s corporate culture and the values of their can-
didates and then build compatibility.
“It’s a common saying that a lot of people get hired for experience and
fired for fit, but it’s true,” Morgan says. “Cultural fit and values ultimately
make or break a placement, so we spent a lot of time trying to understand
those dynamics.”
The recognition of this very human dimension to success is also behind
much of the philanthropy that Boyden and its employees do in the com-
munity. Donating a percentage of overall revenues to charity is both good
for the community and for business. Doing a pro bono search for United
Way or a similar group each year helps that charity but also strengthens
Boyden’s profile in the city. Sitting on the board of the Canadian Petroleum
Hall of Fame, as Morgan does, is both good for the industry, and it expands
Morgan’s all-important network.
“In our view, what you give to the community you get back in some
way or another, whether it’s personal satisfaction, additional business or
knowing you’re doing the right things for the community,” Morgan says.
This pragmatic give-and-take view of philanthropy might seem some-
what mercenary, but in fact, it’s the best engine for the continued growth
of the not-for-profit sector and the important work it does. Every company
and every employee in this industry should make giving back to the com-
munity part of their career. Morgan—who spent part of his childhood at
the Ronald McDonald House in Calgary battling childhood cancer and now
sits on the organization’s board—knows this perhaps better than anyone.
