canada's passion capitalists

In 2011, during the process of writing a book called “Passion Capital”, Paul Alofs, President and CEO at the Princess Margaret Cancer Foundation, gave a small group of business leaders a preliminary copy of the manuscript and asked for feedback. David Shaw, the Founder and CEO of Knightsbridge Human Capital Solutions, was one of them. The concept of Passion Capital and the ideas contained in the book resonated with David. Many of the principles outlined in the book, such as the importance of establishing a values-based culture and selecting and developing people aligned to that culture, are principles that Knightsbridge was not only founded on, but also helps its clients achieve.

Inspired by the book, in 2012 Knightsbridge offered to champion the development of a national awards program to recognize and celebrate great Canadian organizations that have achieved sustainable success by creating “Passion Capital” among their people. The program also reinforced Knightsbridge’s brand promise and the work we do to help strengthen people and organizations, so that they become Passion Capitalists. To help bring the program to life, Knightsbridge partnered with Global Governance Advisors, Business News Network (BNN), and The National Post.
