I must extend a special word of gratitude to Ted. Ted, your involvement has been nothing short of transformative. Your insights and strategic guidance have not only been crucial in securing our PR but have also laid the foundation for our business development and success in the SUV process. Your commitment and hands-on support have been a beacon of hope and a source of strength for us during times of uncertainty and challenge. It is rare to find someone who combines such professionalism with a genuine personal touch, and we have been fortunate to have you by our side. We have learned so many things from you. You have been like a parent who takes the hand of a child to teach him how to walk step-by-step, and the child then learns how to take steps while he feels the paradox that he is independent while at the same time can count on the support of his parent who is walking beside him.

I remember our visits to Egypt and Syria, our many meetings in Dubai and Abu Dhabi, and our hundreds of phone calls and emails and planning sessions. Ted becomes his client and his client becomes Ted, with Ted working day and night, 24x7 to serve his clients despite all the difficulties faced in our region. Ted and I both believe in changing the lives of millions of people in many developing countries. There were remarkable achievements we accomplished together. God bless you Ted and bless your esteemed family.

From meeting Ted, I got a real sense of his desire to do something good for the people in Uganda as well as other parts of the world. I can also appreciate his sensitivity towards understanding and celebrating people of a different culture – the richness of their society as well as the great needs that they face. What a blessing to be able to do something that you know can help to change their lives and make a real difference for the better. He has toured our whole country, and he encouraged people at every stop with his gifts of education and compassion.

Darren DonasMinistry of Education, Kampala Uganda

Oracle built what they thought was an ideal five-year strategic plan for Winnipeg, and then Ted as Branch Manager did it all in just the first year. No wonder his office was on the top floor at the famous intersection of Portage & Main.

Brock CordesWinnipeg MB

Ted’s presentation on marketing strategy was outstanding. His attention to detail was evident in every piece presented. The new pricing format was also exciting; it will help position us to win a number of opportunities that may have been a stretch with the previous format. Thank you Ted!

Ted’s commitment and understanding of his clients allows him to continue to build relationships. Ted channels his high energy and initiative into providing excellent support for his clients. An example was Ted's work for his client at Calgary’s Scotia Place. Ted did an excellent job managing and motivating them in a difficult year. Early in the year, Ted’s client was forecasting numbers in the range of 50% of the budget, and it was through Ted’s hard work and creativity that they not only met but exceeded their targets

Glen CytrynbaumMontreal QC

Quintessential: that is the word that best suits how you start any description of who, what, when or how Ted imparts his value and know-how. And “genuine” is the only word that matters when you want someone who will come to the boardroom table and leave you wanting more. Most important, technology will never replace the character and value that is truly priceless in Ted Moorhouse. Consider this when you only want the best.

Raymond A.K. KisunM&A Club, Vancouver BC

Ted has taught me the importance of befriending employees rather than treating them solely as workers, empowering employees by making them think for themselves, respecting and trusting employees, and praising employees for a job well done. Ted’s dedication, drive and passion are contagious and have helped create a dynamic and inspirational working atmosphere. In addition, Ted’s attentiveness to and awareness of each member of his team should be a model for those in similar ranks.

Thanks to Ted for his leadership displayed at our Professional Development Workshop.
