Since 2007

Our story

Over the years, sisters Sylvia and Valérie Gilbert, founders of Mindcore Consulting Services, noticed a growing gap between organizations’ strategic ambitions and their ability to bring them to life in practice. As engineers by training and passionate about continuous improvement, they repeatedly observed optimization initiatives failing to deliver lasting results—often due to a lack of structured, human, and rigorous support.
It was in this context that Mindcore Consulting Services was born: an independent Quebec-based firm founded on the belief that sustainable performance relies on team autonomy, process clarity, and solid methodological rigor.

Our mission

Supporting organizations so they become the architects of their own performance. We believe that every company can become a true environment for learning, innovation, and continuous improvement—provided the right levers are activated.

Our approach

Mindcore stands out for its integrated approach that combines strategic consulting, certified training, and hands-on support. We operate at every stage of operational transformation, leveraging Lean Six Sigma tools, business process management, industrial engineering, and change management.

Among the key drivers of success, employee engagement, development, and the recognition of their expertise play a central role. Equipped and supported, they are the ones who bring transformation to life every day and ensure the sustainability of results.

A passionate, dynamic, and diverse team that goes above and beyond to exceed your expectations—that’s what you’ll find at Mindcore Consulting Services.
