The History of Shift The Result
Shift The Result began operations in January 2000 under the name of The Effective Office, when Certified Professional Coach Barbara Moyle decided it was time to share her experience and confidence with people thinking of starting a business, and those who having already started one, wanted to move forward to achieve greater success.

Barbara brings to you over 35 years of business experience in human resources, training, project leadership, and administrative and financial management. She has worked in many industry sectors from manufacturing to distribution, sales, banking, importing, insurance, business services and not-for-profit.

She personifies 3 core business skills:
  • effective problem solving,
  • the ability to read and understand people and their needs,
  • and a genuine sense of humour.

Barbara Moyle's background as a corporate trainer and facilitator includes Xerox of Canada, Bank of Nova Scotia, and Manulife Financial. From 1991 to 1995, she was appointed Business Representative to the Yukon Workers Compensation Health and Safety Board where she was diligent in protecting the financial investment of employers, while promoting and encouraging safe workplaces.

Barbara shares her time and experience in volunteer activities:

  • In 2004 and 2006 served as a business mentor for Conestoga College Law and Securities students. 
  • Nominated for the Chamber of Commerce New Member of the Year award in 2003. 
  • Chair of Urban Bard Productions Inc., a not-for-profit Classical Theatre organization.

RAVES

Sometimes people come into your life and you know right away that they were meant to be there, to serve some sort of purpose, teach you a lesson, or to help you figure out who you are or who you want to become. You never know who these people may be, but when you meet them, you know at that very moment they will affect your life in some profound way. Barb has done exactly that.

It didn't take Barb long to win everyone's hearts with her good sense of humor.


Barb faced a lot of challenges learning how everyone fit into each role and what problems and concerns they had. With her experience it didn't take her long to turn the department around. From being reactive we became proactive and our morale returned.
