We combine bold, clear business strategy and a world-class innovation system to build transformative futures for our clients.

Our Clients Never Settle for Boring

Pivot Innovation supports small to medium private enterprises and social good organizations of every model.  What our clients all have in common is a desire to have more impact in their industry and in the world.  We primarily support them with proven frameworks, creative horsepower and dynamic business coaching.

We understand that our clients often need other kinds of support – writing, design, technology expertise, networking and everything else.  We meet our clients where they are, leveraging our network and superhero contractors to provide the support our clients need, when they need it.

Don’t Know What You Need Yet?

Guess what – you aren’t supposed to know the answer yet – that’s what innovation is. Don’t get fooled into thinking technology IS innovation – it’s only a part of it. Let’s start with understanding the problem you want to solve.  Then we’ll figure out the solution.

Our Model Navigates Your Complex Challenges

We build radically clear strategy to empower teams and align resources to achieve your vision
We use the world’s #1 system for innovation to turn innovation from a random art into a reliable science, and to help you leap into the future.

Client Testimonials

If you are looking for radical clarity, a strategic lens, focused results and a means to innovate, Erin Sharp is the trusted advisor you are looking for.  She has worked alongside me and the team at YW Calgary seamlessly for the last two years.  She has successfully provoked and guided an innovation process that will fundamentally change how the organization raises funds to support its operations over the long-term.  We highly recommend Erin Sharp, Pivot Innovation and the Innovation Engineering system

YW Calgary

Erin was contracted to create a 3-year strategy in a very short time frame.  Not only did she meet the challenging deadline, she took the time to interview all the necessary stakeholders and was able to provide a very comprehensive plan as a result.  In the process, Erin quickly earned the respect of the Chair, the CEO and the staff.  Erin’s professionalism and knowledge in her field was critical in the further facilitation of the plan.

Pivot was recommended to me by a senior peer colleague in the field; I wasn’t disappointed as we looked to re-envision, innovate and create efficiencies within an area of focus within our team. Erin worked well with the team and has a very professional and practical approach to the work putting the client’s goals first which is key for the success of any consultant/client relationship.

Pivot Innovation is an ‘out-of-the-box’ consultancy that is rare to find – a unique mix of passion, ideas, and energy that brought momentum to us. I would highly recommend Pivot for complex campaigns that require a distinctive positioning to be successful.

From local working groups to board and executive teams, Erin provokes valuable insights and perspectives on the future, disruption, industry and social shifts and opportunities. Above all, she is professional, reliable, trustworthy, and discreet.”
