Celebrating
20+ years in business.
Referrals are my biggest accomplishment and by far the largest compliment I could receive. Travelling throughout Canada and Internationally to work with businesses, municipalities, and First Nation organizations tells me I am excelling; 23 years later, I’m still eager and excited to start each day.

“Janice was recommended to us through a mutual contact. We engaged Janice to assist with addressing motivation levels within our organization. Several of our employees had ‘ah-ha!’ moments with regards to understanding their different communication styles. The resounding feedback was that this was the best training any of our staff had ever participated in.
Our employees now work better together, and we are noticing less conflict amongst our teams. Thank-you Janice!”

"We learned of Janice through our social services network and inquired about tailoring individualized or team-based development engagements for our Senior Management and Leadership teams.
​
Our leadership team and members have grown substantially over the past 5 years. It was the right time after working 2 years in a pandemic to focus on team formation, building shared communication language, and leadership accountabilities amongst our team.
​
As shared by leaders within our organization, Janice provides the right type of tangible advice for the right circumstance, which has resulted in an increase in positive and productive communication and accountabilities across the organization. It has also provided us with a collective and shared language on how we communicate with one another.
​
Janice’s adaptable style and approach to her service offerings allows organizations to find the right model of services that works for them based on their team needs."

“We engaged Janice because our organization had a new leader and many new staff members. We wanted Janice to help us constructively learn how to work together and create a foundation for ongoing success. Janice recommended SDI. The pre-testing was followed by a day long workshop that helped us a) understand the results in a really clear and logical way and b) implement advice and suggestions on what the results meant for teamwork. She helped us make self-discoveries rather than just tell us the information. The information was truly retained through this process.
​
After working with Janice, our team is now more cohesive. Janice sees things we cannot see in ourselves. She helped us recognize our strengths and suggested simple changes that have huge impacts. Our newfound understanding of each other’s working styles and personalities has resulted in more awareness, patience, and respect for each other. As a leader, my awareness for delegation and efficiency has improved simply by knowing where the strengths of the team lie.”

“Janice took our business from good to great. The management and personal growth we’ve seen in our management and staff is unbelievable. Our team is performing better than I could’ve ever expected and our sales growth and community presence is on a rapid incline. I would recommend every person in leadership position to reach out to Janice for a clarity call – I’m so glad I did.”

“Our organization has worked with Janice Otremba for a number of years. Janice has always provided us with an organized and enlightened approach to better understand the dynamics of our working relationships. Recently Janice worked with our group delivering the Strength Deployment Inventory. Our senior leaders gained a greater understanding of their own personal traits, along with the traits of others, and an understanding of the working relationships between them. These sessions opened the door for greater communication and cooperation throughout the group. Along with our group interactions, Janice provided one on one support and coaching. Working with Janice has placed our organization in a stronger position moving forward.”

“I knew I wanted to own my own wellness centre but I am trained to be a naturopathic doctor and not a business owner, leader or employer. Having Janice work with myself and my team, we have seen a complete transformation in our communication and procedures. Observing our actions, understanding our intentions, and teaching us how to speak each other's individual communication styles has lead us to great success in a short period of time."

“Janice helped us transition from managing to owning our business. She provided pertinent, and strategic support and firm prompting to help us recognize and fill gaps to make changes. It is amazing how much time and money is saved when your team is not fighting fires but actually truly focused on the business. Janice helped guide our team to success.”
