Stu has worked with some of the biggest game-changers in the world including leaders like Shaquille O'Neal, Richard Branson, Seth Godin, Robin Sharma, Tony Robbins, and many, many more. YLCC has grown far beyond just a summer camp. Each year YLCC works with close to 200,000 youth, educators, parents, and corporations across Canada and around the world. He has grown from a small summer camp to a multi-million-dollar company. Living by his credo, Purpose before Profits. In 2018, he was awarded the Barry Sharp Award of Excellence for his work to promote and foster student leadership across Canada. As one of Canada’s most sought-after educational leadership consultants and speakers, Stu continues to work hard to change the conversation for the next generation of leaders.
