solutions designed by nature
Our foundation
We have simple values.
Integrity. Gratitude. Relationships.
We believe that a desire for knowledge, dialogue and creativity brings people together to solve our most pressing challenges. We believe that solutions exist, even for modern day ‘wicked’ problems. Where natural capital meets human ingenuity.
We see Canada as a nation poised to harness this bounty and take our place in the emerging world reality, as a global leader. And we’re lucky to work for the people on the frontlines, to be a part of that future.
We established Rockland Canada Management Corporation in 2025 to provide ecologically based policy and business expertise for clients to innovate, pivot and thrive in Canada’s natural resource sector.
The natural resource sector in Canada faces formidable challenges. Advancing science to operations. Making innovative decisions. Remaining agile to evolving knowledge. Keeping up with rapidly changing regulatory environments. Optimizing internal productivity and external competitiveness. Pivoting amidst geopolitical uncertainty.
Decades of studying, observing, recreating, living and working in terrestrial and marine ecosystems in British Columbia, Canada, has led us to learn not only about the systems themselves. There are design elements that tell a deeper story. Natural patterns reveal solutions honed over time, sometimes shaped by necessity. Or scarcity. Competition. Efficiency. Adaptation. Connectedness. Facilitation. Hierarchies. Scale. Change. Interactions. Feedbacks. Amplification.
How alike, our modern world?
What parallels are there between the design of solutions in nature, and our present-day challenges?
With proven success at building, connecting and deploying knowledge capital; finding David-sized fixes to Goliath-sized problems; and bringing improbable outcomes to fruition - at Rockland Canada Management Corporation, we turn difficult problems into elegant solutions.
