teams + events
your team has sat through enough boring sessions.

where do you need a ripple?
every engagement is different because every team is different. here's where we start.
-
your team deserves more than another training they'll forget by friday.
workshops and retreats with ripple effect leadership are bespoke, values-driven, and designed around your people, not a generic template. expect real conversations, creative experiences, and practical tools your team will actually use long after the session ends.
every engagement is built around your culture, your goals, and what your team actually needs right now. creativity isn't a nice-to-have here. it's the whole point.

stories move people. data informs them. janic does both.
with over 500 presentations, keynotes, conferences, and symposiums delivered throughout her career, janic knows how to read a room, hold attention, and leave people with something they actually take home.
as the founder of PechaKucha London Ontario, she has spent years creating events that feel less like conferences and more like experiences. whether she's on stage as a keynote speaker or keeping energy alive as your MC, expect warmth, wit, and a room that stays engaged from start to finish.
topics include leadership, values and culture, creativity as a business strategy, and self-leadership.
-
strategy without values is just a document nobody reads.
with 25 years of experience in the non-profit sector, janic has sat at the table through strategic planning sessions that inspired action and ones that collected dust. she knows the difference and she knows how to make sure yours does the former.
she works with boards, staff, and leadership teams to turn big ideas into clear, actionable plans that actually reflect what your organization stands for.
“Janic is a creative facilitator with a rare ability to design bespoke experiences that are tailored to your team's specific needs, while making sure every person in the room feels included and energized.
She creates meaningful experiences which inspire personal growth while fostering deeper relationships with fellow colleagues. I have thoroughly enjoyed every opportunity I have had to work with Janic. She truly shines in all she undertakes.
Most recently, Janic supported Childcan through a consulting contract with Ripple Effect Leadership, facilitating workshops to strengthen our mission, vision, and core values, building structure around our board governance and volunteer program, and helping our team turn values into daily action.
The strategic planning work Janic led gave Childcan a stronger foundation and a clearer path forward.”

what grounds ripple effect?
your values are either driving your culture or they're decorating it. there is no in between. these are the values that shape how I work and what I bring into every room.
one ripple changes everything.
a fresh idea, a real conversation, one decision made with clarity instead of fear. that's how momentum starts. whether it's a solo biz owner feeling stuck or a team navigating change, the smallest intentional move creates forward motion. creativity opens the door. courage walks through it.
the strategic superpower (creativity)
creativity isn't a nice-to-have. it's how problems get solved, how ideas become offers, and how businesses stop spinning and start building. I bring creativity into every part of my work because strategy without it is just a to-do list.
always on the guest list (connection + collaboration)
things work better when people feel safe speaking up. I help entrepreneurs and workplaces shift from silence and guessing to real conversations that build trust and forward motion. connection isn't a bonus feature of good leadership. it's the whole point.
grow without the burnout (sustainable action)
our systems should help you breathe, not burn you out. sustainable growth means making decisions that feel steady today and still make sense a year from now. I teach practical ways to organize, prioritize, and lead that support your life instead of draining it.
