As my company started to grow, I hired Janine to help me optimize the human resources of the organization. She partnered with me and our executive team to assess our company’s culture and identify areas where we could improve employee engagement and productivity. Her expertise in organizational psychology and human resources has provided valuable insights and recommendations that were tailored to our specific needs. Her approach is thoughtful and comprehensive, taking into account both the needs of individual employees and the overall goals of the company.
She has helped us optimize our hiring process and develop strategies for maximizing the potential of each employee. Her focus on team and departmental alignment was particularly impactful, as we saw a significant improvement in collaboration and communication across the organization. Her overall impact on our organization is invaluable, her expertise and dedication remarkable, and I highly recommend Janine to any leader that is looking to improve their culture, maximize employee potential and engagement, increase productivity, and return on their human capital.

We wanted to assess our business operations and ensure that our growth was compatible with the future vision and goals for our practice. Janine’s skillful assessment of our team’s strengths and weaknesses continues to help our organization focus on our mission. Her leadership and mentoring at all levels- doctors, management, administrative and clinical staff- has facilitated business growth even in the midst of a rapidly evolving organization. Janine excels as an active and responsive listener and is excellent at adapting to the challenges our business model presents.

Janine Stichter has worked with myself and our leadership team at Veterans United Realty for over two years. As a new leadership team with a growing staff and increasing sales it was clear we did not have systems in place to work best together. Janine helped us establish those systems and also awareness about ourselves and each other to work cohesively together. She quickly became part of our team and worked with all of our leaders from team lead up through Executive Director on everything from communication to productive and efficient meeting structure to project management.
Her innate ability to see things from a different perspective and identify tendencies that may be reducing productivity is invaluable. Dr. J. has helped each leader grow individually to become a better leader using their own personality traits and tendencies to their advantage while working on areas where growth is needed through honest conversations. The strategies she has helped each leader implement have made each of them more confident and impactful leaders.

Janine Stichter has been an amazing addition to VUR with unique insights that are traditionally overlooked in the employer world. I know Janine is an outside contractor but her love, care, and attention to detail makes it feel like she is part of the VU Family. Over the last couple of years, I have had the honor of spending some quality time with Janine, both one on one and in group settings. Janine has helped my professional growth immensely and has an ability to speak to each person she is helping in a manner in which they can understand, interpret, and put into action. With the guidance of Janine, I have grown as a leader, as a teammate, and vastly in my personal life outside of these walls. Janine has been a great asset through multiple transitions here at VUR.
When we went to a regional format, Janine was instrumental in preparing the leadership team to have tough conversations and lead with love and care. In our transition to the one-on-one world and the one origination team, Janine insight helped us to deliver a soft message to the floor that truly empowered our employees to take the change in stride and seize the opportunity for growth. I believe Janine is one of a kind and a true asset to a company that is young and hungry and agile in an always changing industry. Her background in organizational growth and stability was a big piece of the continued success and growth of VUR. She is adored by the VUR family.

Over the past 18 months, I have completely restructured my personal life and business. Janine helped me organize my day by day by creating priority road maps: she has helped me identify and focus on the important issues that I encounter, and taught me how to delegate things that do not need my direct attention. She also identified particular habitual pattens in my life, coached me on why they exist, and offered navigation tools to cultivate or circumnavigate the healthy vs unhealthy habits.
Janine then dove into our company, and completely revamped the infrastructure: hiring processes, job descriptions, performance appraisals, and dashboard measurement metrics, she created a clear cut path how to advance careers within our organization. Janine utilized top-tier dynamic business assessments to provide our team with valuable insights into our innate abilities and how to leverage them for improved collaboration and productivity.

Building a good culture, one that fosters growth and stability, is a daunting task. We didn’t know where to start. We had a “successful” business but we knew it could be more. Janine was our bridge to that new reality – more fulfilling business with fewer stressors.
Collaborating with her brought a new level clarity and transparency to our whole organization. Our team is more positive and productive. Our business is growing and is more stable than any time in its history. Janine’s impact on our team, our culture, and our business has been invaluable. From big picture approach to the smallest details, Janine has the skill set to create and grow an amazing culture.
