Seminar highlights were: the 3 main sections of your wardrobe, how to build them intelligently and efficiently, and how to project them into the image you want. The seminar was dedicated to taking their current professional image and leveraging it to position themselves for success. The guys all loved it and the presentation slides were awesome….thank you Janelle. We’ll be having you back!” KAVITA CHAUHAN, Brookfield Asset Management “We commissioned Janelle to discuss a delicate topic with a group of employees from across the country at the BMO Institute for Learning. Janelle successfully raised awareness on the importance of image and the impact it has on oneself and others. The employees greatly appreciated Janelle’s guidance and took her comments to heart. It was an extremely worthwhile discussion.” JULIE BURNHAM WARD, VP and Managing Director, BMO Nesbitt Burns “Janelle was invited to be a guest speaker at our Ernst & Young Professional Women’s Network event presenting the topic of Professional Presence in the workplace. She was an absolute pleasure to work with, professional and organized at all times. During the presentation, she spoke to the topic with poise and confidence, drawing on her corporate work experience to relate to the audience and establish a connection. The “looks” she styled for EY volunteer models suited a variety of work related occasions, and reflected the unique personalities of the models. Janelle stressed the importance of not only dressing appropriately for the office but also using clothing to reflect your personality and authentic self. After the presentation, she was sought out by guests of the event for her professional opinion on selecting flattering colours and styles – a testament to her knowledge and expertise. Our event was a great success, and I wish to thank Janelle for her contribution!” LISA VENTOLA, CA, Senior Consultant, Advisory Services at Ernst & Young Your first step is to have your Human Resources representative contact us to assess your company’s needs, so we can build your ideal image management seminar.
