Andrew Best Email and Phone Number
I grew up on a ranch in BC, so believe the architects of our prosperity are those who roll up their sleeves and deliver what we need: food, energy, minerals and forest products. For more than 30 years, I've helped companies like Devon tell their Beaufort Sea exploration story, galvanized First Nation support as partners in Kitimat LNG, and garnered regulatory approval for Cominco’s Polaris Mine in the High Arctic. I have worked for many Federal Departments, Provincial Ministries and the Yukon Government, as well as the BC Treaty Commission, the Inuvialuit Regional Corporation and the Council of Yukon First Nations. Too often, I think we lose sight of our shared values, and fixate on polarizing differences; and the opportunity costs are enormous. So I take pride in finding common ground, respecting differences, and cultivating mutually beneficial partnerships and agreements.

Director, Business DevelopmentRedfeather Strategies Oct 2024 - PresentCalgary, Alberta, CanadaFor 30+ years, I have been insatiably curious about what drives visionary leaders and organizations to seize opportunities, deliver value and create wealth. As a lifelong entrepreneur, I know only too well that behind every success story is a dream realized through blood, sweat and tears - and an unrelenting sense of purpose. I have had the privilege of helping tell those stories for the Energy, Forestry, Mining, Tourism, Construction and Aerospace industries; every level of government and Indigenous organizations across the country.My grandfather was one of the first Indigenous pilots in WWII and courageously flew Mosquito Night Fighter missions over Europe, then became a test pilot, and was third in line to fly the Avro Aero. As accomplished as he was, he would never admit he was an "Indian". He inspired me to fight for what I believe in, to know the sky is literally the limit; and as a proud Metis, I have spent much of my career helping companies, governments and Indigenous organizations to foster greater understanding, respect and opportunities.My role at Red Feather Strategies is to leverage all this experience to help capture the essence of our client's purpose, values and mission, then harness our talented team to create impactful creative and strategy that engages, connects, drives growth and prosperity. -
