About me
The strategist behind the clarity.
I’m Ana Magana — a Calgary-based strategic communications and organizational change management professional, PMP® and Prosci® certified.
I bring change management methodology and strategic communications together to help organizations navigate organizational changes and transformation.
With more than a decade of experience in strategic communications, I’ve led communications initiatives and delivered change management work within complex enterprise environments. My experience spans corporate communications, stakeholder engagement, enterprise technology transformation, and change initiatives within large-scale organizations.
How I Got Here
My career began in communications, where I developed a foundation in digital strategy, corporate communications, and stakeholder engagement.
Over time, my work brought me closer to enterprise transformation, and to a question that changed how I approached communications.
What happens after the message is delivered?
A communication can be polished, timely, and technically accurate. But that doesn’t mean people understand the change, know what’s expected of them, or feel prepared to move forward.
My experience supporting enterprise technology transformation deepened my interest in the broader mechanics of organizational change: stakeholder impacts, leadership alignment, business readiness, and adoption.
That progression led me to formal certifications in change management and project management, expanding the disciplines I bring to my work.
Today, I see communications and change management as interconnected parts of the same challenge: translating organizational intent into meaningful action.
What I Stand For
- Clarity: Because meaning beats messaging.
- Empathy: Because understanding starts with listening.
- Calm: Because composure builds trust.
- Integrity: Because the truth doesn’t need spin.
- Elegance: Because simplicity is a form of respect.
