heyCONSULTING

Social systems consulting designed to elevate teams

A group of diverse professionals gather around a laptop. They are all wearing neutral business clothes and are all smiling or looking softly at the laptop.

Humans are complex. Creating humanized workplaces doesn’t have to be.

Whether you’re looking for people-centered advice and guidance, a full Humanity at Work audit and strategies, or support to executing projects Jodi has you covered.

Jodi will work with you to set a focus for your time together. This isn’t necessarily a question to answer or a problem to solve, but rather an area of opportunity that will benefit you or your team, now and long-term.

Your customized People & Culture + HR strategic plan

We call it the HUMANTIS Plan, because it’s more than just HR. By considering the administrative elements of HR—your systems, policies, and training—alongside the broader experience of being a human in the workplace, we can build a strategic plan that really works. 

As we co-create your custom HUMANTIS Plan, we’ll discover what you’re doing well, what’s missing, and where you can focus to make the biggest impact. It all starts with Intentification.

Choose the level of support you need

OPTION A:
ACTION PLAN ONLY

We’ll start by sending you a quiz about the current state of your People, Culture, and HR systems. Based on your answers, and a 1:1 consultation, we will provide a focused one-page summary of short-term recommendations and priorities.

OPTION B:
THE HUMANTIS PLAN

We will conduct extensive qualitative research, including in-depth interviews and focus groups, to build a holistic assessment of your current state when it comes to all things People & Culture + HR. We will then develop a custom HUMANTIS plan—your roadmap for a more human workplace.

Testimonials

  • “When we were establishing a new human resources position—our first HR person ever—we didn’t know where to start. Meeting Jodi was a life-saver. She worked with our Management Team in putting together a vision and work plan for our Human Resources approach.

    Jodi was key in every step, sharing her knowledge, passion, enthusiasm, a deep sense of purpose and a great sense of humour with us! We highly recommend her as an HR consultant.”

    — Jennifer Gray-Grant, Executive Director

The heyCONSULTING Process

Step 1: Where you are

We start by looking at your current organizational behaviour & culture, DEI and Human Resources work systems to understand where you’re beginning. Regardless of which package you’ve selected, I’ll share a form that helps me gauge your current state.

Don’t worry—I’ve seen it all. I will discuss what you’re doing right and what you could be doing better in and provide support to elevate humanity in your workplace. 

Spoiler alert: it won’t happen overnight. But it will happen.

Step 2: Where you want to be

Next, it’s time to link your root intent with where you want to be. Through my Intentification framework, we will identify what’s influencing this work and build out either a concrete game plan or strategies that strengthens the human connections in your organization.

We will co-crate the specific activities that must take place, establish target dates, and determine how you will measure progress.

Step 3: Building your plan

We thoroughly integrate People & Culture + HR work processes, considering change management activities, project management tools, legislation, labour codes, and human behaviour theories as we build out your plan. 

In our final meeting, we walk you through your very own custom HUMANTIS Plan aligned with the goals of your organization and built for the humans who work there.
