About Steve

Gratitude at Work - a behaviour and culture changing institution, was founded by Steve Foran in 2007. What started as GiveRaising has grown into work with leaders across Canada and into the United States, shifting cultures and helping teams bring more gratitude to work each day.

Steve began exploring the relationship between gratitude and philanthropic giving while completing his Masters at Saint Mary’s University in Halifax. Steve has been on the leading edge of gratitude-based research, writing, and teaching for almost fifteen years. His science-based program, Gratitude At Work, is a simple, yet innovative approach to business growth.

An electrical engineer, Steve brings a detail oriented and thoughtful approach to his working relationships and client engagements. Thriving off of people in search of growth, Steve works with leaders who want to instill an engaging, cooperative culture with their employees.

Steve is a son, brother, husband, father and now grandfather. He teaches Business Ethics, has written extensively on the subject of gratitude, is the founder of STATUSGRO and publishes a nationally recognized video blog - Keeping Level. Steve is actively engaged in making his community a better place and is proud to be a lifelong resident of Halifax, Nova Scotia.
