Joan Paul collaborates with organizations and individuals to help them in the
developmental process, customizing the process to suit the specific needs of
clients.
Joan has worked in the training and development industry for over
20 years. Beginning her career at Xerox Canada in sales, she experienced
first-hand what exceptional training can do to shape a career and contribute to
organizational results. Her next move was to Xerox's training division where she
spent nine years learning the business and increasing her responsibilities -
facilitator, training manager, project manager and sales manager.
At that
point, Joan was ready to start her own training and development consulting
business. She worked with a variety of organizations and industries for five
years prior to being recruited by The Forum Corporation for an exclusive
training contract with a well known accounting firm in Canada. She then joined a
human resource and business consulting firm, became director and senior
consultant responsible for the training division and sales leadership of the
firm.
Joan enjoys her business: facilitating workshops and conferences,
developing curriculum and training programs; and particularly, coaching one on
one and advising clients how to improve the developmental process for their
companies and employees.
Joan's clients range from small companies to Fortune 500
corporations. They come from various industries, but particularly from the
professional services, oil and gas, communications, technology and manufacturing
sectors. This broad experience has given her a comprehensive understanding of
the Canadian marketplace. Results-oriented and client-focused, Joan's mission is
to make a difference to the organization and to the individual, a difference
that will result in greater productivity corporately and personally.
