What ties these diverse
backgrounds together?
Besides a great partnership,
respect for each others professional competencies, a commitment
to quality, Nancy and Paul have both enjoyed very dynamic
careers that have taken them to many places around world and
allowed them to work with people of different cultures, values,
and beliefs as a result of a 21-year affiliation with the
Department of National Defence and a passion for travel. At the
heart of all they do, is their approach; a passionate,
professional, collaborative team based method of working with
organizations and individuals to achieve and communicate defined
outcomes.
In the early years of their career they worked in parallel,
Nancy focused on tourism, recreation, and education in the
communities they lived while Paul was highly engaged in project
and construction management.
Since Paul’s retirement from the military, they have settled on
Vancouver Island and it was here their professional worlds began
to come together on several projects at Royal Roads University
and Hatley Park National Historic Site including the Learning
and Innovation Centre, the Robert Bateman Art and Environmental
Centre, the Mast, and the Lord and Burnham 1914 Greenhouse. As
members of various project teams, Paul’s role was to project
manage the infrastructure and heritage site aspects of the
‘Place’ while Nancy’s contributions were to focus on the
‘People’ aspects -- the tourism, community, and educational
activities that would engage people in meaningful ways.
Together, from different lens, they both focused on the
‘Profits’ ensuring their contributions, recommendations, and
actions led to effective cost expenditures and new revenue
generating solutions.
The result, Arsenault Project Solutions is proud to bring their
diverse skills, knowledge, networks, and professional skills
together in support of projects within the tourism, education,
leisure, and military sectors, adding capacity to organizations
and supporting positive change.
