We had the pleasure of working with Origin Leadership Consulting Inc. to develop a series of business development workshops aimed at enhancing the socio-economic capacity of Inuit women across the country. 

More specifically, Origin Leadership Consulting Inc. was responsible for revising and updating business development workshops, which will be delivered to communities across Inuit Nunangat in the future in addition to being made available online. The workshops focused on the creation of a business plan, money, and financial management, resource mapping, sales, and marketing.  

In order to ensure that this project was a success, it was imperative for Pauktuutit to work with partners who demonstrated an understanding of Inuit culture and the socio-economic realities of the North. We also wanted to ensure we worked with partners who had experience working with Inuit communities, actors, and organizations, possessed effective communication skills and methodology, and had the proven expertise to produce culturally relevant work. 

Origin Leadership Consulting Inc. demonstrated all of the qualifications listed above in addition to showcasing the critical cultural competency required to work with Indigenous stakeholders and communities.  

It would be an absolute pleasure for Pauktuutit to work with Origin Leadership Consulting Inc. in the future.

Raelene’s unwavering support backed by her depth of knowledge and experience makes her the perfect choice when I am looking for a new perspective. As I’ve gotten to know her, she continues to impress me with her well-honed listening skills. She has the ability to grasp the salient morsels that are needed to move the agenda forward towards the desired goals and outcomes. Raelene articulates the feelings that I could not identify by myself. Raelene is the person you should call to get you going in the right direction.

Raelene is amazing! Talk with her. She’s a great listener and helped me open up about aspects of my life I’d told very few people about. Sometimes just talking to someone outside your family and social circle can bring you a new perspective and can be a first step in getting both your true self back as well as getting your life back on track. Raelene was a bright light when I was in the dark. There was no judgment and the conversation flowed so naturally. I would recommend that you talk to her even if you are unsure of what to say or where to begin. I did and I continue to reap the benefits. It could be that one conversation that gets you your life back.

In less than half of my sessions, Raelene helped me do this and my life has improved dramatically ever since. One of the best things about this program (Surviving to Thriving) is that it adapts along the way in whichever way is needed. The information in the workbook is extremely beneficial and covers things that people can go their entire life without discovering. Meeting my coach, Raelene, was truly a blessing. She has a gift of not only listening but hearing and guiding you towards amazing decisions and possibilities. Thank you, Raelene!
