For over two decades, I have been helping organizations leverage subscription pricing, digital communities, and freemium models to build deeper relationships with their customers and generate predictable recurring revenue. I am the founder of Peninsula Strategies, a consulting firm that has worked with some of the most well-regarded brands in the world, such as Netflix, Microsoft, and the Wall Street Journal, as well as with visionary start-up entrepreneurs and mission-driven nonprofits and associations.

I am also an advisor, a speaker, an educator, and an author. I serve on the advisory board of Strava, a social network for athletes, and I share my insights and expertise on subscription and membership models through keynote speeches, podcasts, and LinkedIn Learning courses. I have written two books, The Membership Economy and The Forever Transaction, that anticipated and defined the massive transformation from ownership to membership and the rise of subscription pricing. My passion is to help organizations create forever transactions with the people they serve and achieve long-term growth and sustainability.

City of Brampton

Keynote Speaker, City of Brampton Career Development Day
I was honored to be invited by the City of Brampton as a keynote speaker for their Career Development Day. I shared my immigrant journey and strategies to help employees navigate career growth, overcome barriers, and advance with confidence. This was a speaking engagement and partnership, not employment with the City.

Testimonials from attendees:
	•	“Your story is my story, I feel seen.”
	•	“I now have actionable tips to work on my career right away.”
	•	“Inspiring, relatable, and empowering.”

As a career strategist and Canadian keynote speaker, I specialize in talks on career development, personal branding, immigrant journeys, leadership, workplace culture, and DEIB (diversity, equity, inclusion, belonging). My message blends lived experience with practical career strategies, making it highly relatable and results-driven.

I have worked with top companies, community organizations, and cities across Canada to deliver impactful keynotes and workshops that motivate, inspire, and equip people with actionable steps.

Hi, I’m Sweta — a Top 10 Career Coach in Canada, Keynote Speaker, recipient of the Outstanding Career Leader Award, and a Certified Career &amp; Resume Strategist. I transform careers of immigrant professionals—both newcomers &amp; long-settled —build six-figure careers, high-authority personal brands, and strong leadership. After 15+ years as a hiring manager leading award-winning teams, I’ve seen exactly who gets filtered out.And it’s rarely about ability.Bias—systemic, cultural, and now algorithm-driven—often sidelines skilled immigrant professionals even when they’re qualified &amp; already performing at a high level.If you’ve been told:• “You’re not ready for promotion”• “We’re looking for Canadian experience”• “You’re not a cultural fit”• “Just wait your turn”•“Your accent might hold you back”You’re not imagining it.I heard those lines too—and I learned how to outperform them.My Career StoryI arrived in Canada with PR, no network, and no Canadian experience.I worked survival jobs in factories &amp; fast food while learning how hiring, advancement, and bias actually work behind the scenes.With clear strategy and execution:I earned 9 promotions in 12 years.Not luck. Positioning. Performance. Leverage.Then came a turning point: a layoff.I relocated to a new city, rebuilt my career, &amp;  later faced roles that looked impressive on paper but didn’t align with my long-term goals.I walked away. Twice by quitting! I became:• A keynote speaker• A featured career expert in 100+ national news stories (CBC, CNBC, Global, FOX26, WSJ)• Ranked as a Top Career Strategist GloballyWhat I Do NowI founded Teachndo to give immigrant professionals a strategic playbook that matches their talent—not the limitations of the system around them.I transform clients:• Navigate systemic + AI hiring filters• Position themselves as top-tier, in-demand talent• Build six-figure careers and authority-driven personal brands• Master interviews (accent included—not erased)• Grow into leadership roles with clarity Many of my clients have earned three promotions within a few years, broken long-standing ceilings:• Amazon• Deloitte• Government of Canada• Big 5 Banks• High-growth startupsContact &amp; Work With Me⭐ Client Results: https://teachndo.com/testimonials🎥 Free Career Clarity Class: https://teachndo.com/webinar📈 Work With Me (Apply): https://teachndo.com/apply🎤 Speaking &amp; Media Requests: https://teachndo.com/speaker
