Tyler and Laurie look forward to building a loving family and continuing to make a difference in their quiet seaside community of Mahone Bay, Nova Scotia.

What People Say About Tyler
"You were not only able to achieve them [our objectives] with exacting detail, but you exceeded every members’ expectations. Tyler, your professional skills far surpass your age."
Robert Zed, President and CEO, The Zed Group
"Entertaining, energetic and certainly outside the box, Tyler left our group with some key messages that we will carry with us going forward and these will ultimately help us be even more successful. His presentation was full of energy and very entertaining, yet our managers took some key messages that were consistent with how we want to build our team and achieve success as we move into a new fiscal year."
Paul Farquharson, AGM, Sales and Service, Scotiabank Atlantic Contact Centre
"Tyler took the time to fully understand our meeting message and objectives. He also went the extra distance by aquainting himself with our company, providing a cultural connect with his presentation. A fun filled learning experience."
Les Mackay, Regional Manager, Weyerhaeuser
"Last year we had Tyler Hayden and people are STILL talking about how great it was. Besides his great humour and fantastic message, the great thing about Tyler was that he did his talk, and then lead the rest of the afternoon team building activities."
Chantal Pelham , Nova Scotia Economic Development
"Thanks to you we can say that our objectives were met. It is safe to say that you were a definite hit! You are a man of great talent and great wisdom, who also has a big heart! What a combination to have in no small package! It was again a real pleasure meeting you and we would welcome any chances of working with you again."
Richard Gauthie, National Capital Commission, Ottawa Canada
"Tyler, thanks again for working with us at the team-building retreat last week. The team can't stop talking about it, and with so many of our staff being new to the company, this was an excellent way for us all to get connected, while squeezing in some excellent leadership and communications skills development. It is clear that you listened to me when we were planning this, as you gave us exactly what we needed, without anything to worry about. Thanks so much."
Mark Fraser, General Manager, Content Services T4G Limited
"I just want to thank you for recommending Tyler....he was fantastic. Our group of advisors loved him!! He had us in stitches... and at the same time he made some very good points... a perfect ending to our jam packed day...I would definately recommend Tyler to anyone."
Chantal Gale, Assistant to Richard Alderman, Assante Wealth Management
"My past work with Tyler Hayden for our CBDC network has been outstanding, inspirational and educational with extreme motivation for all ages igniting not only innovative thoughts and actions completely out of the box, but a solid plan for success for entrepreneurs and youth chasing their dreams in rural Atlantic Canada. If you are planning success, then have Tyler Hayden on your team."
Randy Smith , Executive Director, CBDC Cumberland
"You captivated, enthused and inspired the group within minutes of beginning your presentation and continued the energy throughout. It was a memorable experience for all. Thank you for joining us and bringing a high energy close to our conference!"
Lana Williams, Human Resources, Cooperators
"Thank you for sharing your energy, enthusiasm and learning with Dooly's Inc. during our AGM. Your presentation was certainly motivational AND inspirational, but more than that, it was just plain fun! I think you were a perfect ending to a jam-packed two days, ... a shot of that obscure Italian liqueur at the end of a fabulous meal."
Lisa Stutt, Goddess of Marketing, Dooly's Inc.
"Tyler's energy and optimism are contagious an no one is immune to his humour. Tyler has worked for us with several groups in our area. His empathy and ability to touch each individual is like magic, making the group a team. Everyone should have a chance to experience him!"
Bonnie MacDermott, Manager, Future Worx Job Search Centre
"The event was a great success, and your presentation is still the topic of much discussion! At future events, you might consider issuing a "choking hazard" in advance, since one of our guests laughed so hard she did just that. She has since recovered and is singing your praises - though in a rather hoarse voice."
Tracy Durkee, Maritime Regional Director, Crohn’s and Colitis Foundation of Canada
"Our group [YPO - Young Presidents' Organization] comprised of extremely busy CEOs from around Atlantic Canada, had high expectations - given their time is not a commodity often wasted. The result, from start to finish, exceeded expectations.... Good luck Tyler. I hope you never stop “Livin’ Life Large”!
Angus Beattie, President and CEO, Global Design & Construction Limited
"If you are looking for an alternative energy source Tyler is your man. Tyler brought his focused, energized, fun talents to my team of serious-minded bureaucrats and turned their world inside out. He provided them the opportunity to recognize the important things in their personal and work lives while having a heck of a lot of fun and laughter doing so. I had high grades given by my team and pass them along to Tyler."
