About Us

We believe career growth should be built into the workplace, not left up to chance.

Workthrough was founded in 2022 to reimagine how organizations approach employee and leadership development. Too often, career growth is seen only as promotions. We know that real development happens through skill-building, coaching, and meaningful opportunities along the way.

We partner with organizations to design people-first career development and training programs that create pathways for employees at every stage. From startups to global companies, we help build systems where managers coach with confidence, employees feel supported, and organizations see the impact of strong development on engagement, retention, and performance.

Careers thrive when organizations see people as more than roles. They’re individuals with skills, ambitions, diverse experiences and potential worth developing. People development isn’t a perk. It’s a priority.

“

We had the pleasure of working with Workthrough on a training session for leaders. The session was focused on creating a feedback culture and the different ways to give feedback. Chi-Chi was engaging, energetic and presented the content in a way our supervisors could understand. She even went the extra mile by reviewing our job descriptions and aligning her examples to what our employees do to help supervisors connect the dots. It was one of our highest-rated training sessions.”
–Director, HR Business Partner, ACA Group

“

Working with Chi-Chi is both inspiring and energizing. She brought so much transparency, humour and genuine empathy to our company session. We really appreciate how she skillfully weaves practical tools for resilience into relatable stories. Her workshop strikes the perfect balance of knowledge sharing and interactive exercises, leaving participants feeling both heard and empowered. Chi-Chi’s thoughtful facilitation creates a safe, supportive atmosphere where people can explore challenges honestly and walk away with real strategies to thrive.”
–Manager, People and Culture, Stamped (WeCommerce)

“

We participated in two Workthrough workshops—one on feedback culture for our entire team and another on team dynamics for our Senior Leadership Team. Both received overwhelmingly positive feedback, with participants eager to apply the insights and strategies. The workshops are engaging, virtual or in-person, and create a safe space where all voices are heard. Workthrough tailored each session to our needs, making them highly relevant and impactful. We highly recommend Chi-Chi and Workthrough!”
