Guiding teams to clarity, collaboration, and innovation—delivering solutions that work.

Empowering Businesses to Thrive 

At New Helio, I help teams and individuals create environments where innovation and collaboration thrive. As an experienced facilitator, customer and employee experience strategist, and team leader, I guide tough conversations in safe, inclusive spaces to align on actionable solutions.

 

With experience working on large-scale transformations in complex organizations across industries, I cut through complexity and help teams build or scale products, services, and businesses. My approach combines customer and employee experience design, coaching, and team-building to deliver sustainable growth and impactful results.

Psychological Safety Workshop Testimonial

Design Director, RBC 

"As a design leader, I believe autonomous teams build great products, and psychological safety is the foundation that makes autonomy possible. I’d recommend this course to anyone serious about building high-performing teams or looking to drive change. What stood out most was how practical the course was. Erin found a way to help all participants to reflect on behaviours that either build or erode safety and shared a framework to help us course-correct in real time. I left with a clearer sense of how to create conditions where my team feels safe to take risks, challenge ideas, and lead with confidence. It's a must for all leaders or facilitators."

Hello, 

I’m Erin Helcl, founder of New Helio, where I help teams turn challenges into opportunities through facilitation, strategy, and design. I’m passionate about creating spaces where people feel safe to share bold ideas, align on goals, and build impactful solutions.

 

With experience working on large-scale transformations in complex organizations, I’ve seen how silos and misalignment can hold teams back. That’s why I focus on fostering collaboration, breaking down barriers, and guiding teams to clarity and action.

 

What sets me apart is blending strategic thinking with a deep understanding of people—bringing curiosity, creativity, and structure to every project. I thrive on helping teams align, solve tough problems, and deliver meaningful results.
