  • HRPA

    Jamelle spoke at HRPA’s first annual virtual Conference & Trade show in January 2021. He is truly a gifted speaker, with valuable and insightful content that was well-received by our attendees. Jamelle’s session was ranked as one of the top 10 sessions of our program. Here’s what some attendees had to say:

    “Talk about saving the best for last!! An essential component of a good facilitator is being able to manage the session beyond reciting a set of slides. Jamelle was engaging DURING his presentation AND after! He connected the points on the slide and made each comment connect to an example.
    He listened to each question (asked for it to be repeated if necessary) and thoroughly answered each one. How refreshing!! His answers weren’t canned or rehearsed, but rather, specific and helpful. He gave practical examples and transitioned his thoughts into helpful responses. What an exceptional presenter!!! THAT is the kind of MC or HOST this session needs. Well done!!”

    “Fantastic session! Filled with so many takeaways for HR professionals and things they can apply in their day-to-day lives, both professionally and personally. Loved the tips and resources provided to us to take back to our workplaces and work toward improving EQ and EI!”

  • People & Culture Leader, Wave

    I’ve always known how brilliant Mr. Lindo is. However, it took a global pandemic for me to really fully appreciate the extent of his expertise and capabilities.

    As Wave’s 270+ employees have transitioned to a work-from-home environment amidst a global pandemic, Jamelle has stepped up to help facilitate sessions and train our team on self-awareness and resilience.

    His sessions are raw, real, and unbelievably practical. He provides incredible depth of expertise in the field of emotional intelligence and pairs that with a very dynamic & engaging facilitation style.

    Jamelle is an absolute joy to work with and could add value to any organization (during a global pandemic or not).

  • Ivari

    I was first introduced to Jamelle at The Conference Board of Canada, Better Workplace Conference. His engaging delivery and thought provoking workshop was truly refreshing and incredibly relevant in the virtual world today. I reconnected with Jamelle a few months later to ask that he share his knowledge and experiences on emotional intelligence with our people leaders. Thank you Jamelle for inspiring us through this energetic and one of a kind learning experience.

  • Ryerson University

    Jamelle was a featured speaker for a virtual event in partnership with the Faculty of Communications & Design’s Wellness Week at Ryerson University. He spoke enthusiastically about wellness and mental health while providing thoughtful examples for attendees to overcome their feelings of personal defeat and doubt. His strong presence, paired with his contagious energy, kept our audience engaged and attentive throughout the event. Our students surely benefited from his expertise in topics of mental wellness and self-care!

  • Watson Investments

    Jamelle presented to our team of advisors, and provided clear examples to help us improve our emotional intelligence. I first heard about Jamelle from attended one of his presentations with CEO Global Group Network. After that I spoke to him about how we always hire Wealth Managers to help our clients who have strong EQs but that I agree it is a skill that should always be improved. Having stronger EQs as Wealth Managers allows us to better help our clients – our top goal. Jamelle gave a tailored presentation specific for our business and situations we help our clients with. I would highly recommend Jamelle. His coaching is tremendously beneficial, and it was a fun team learning opportunity. We will continue to use his services.

  • Human Resources Office, PUC Services

    We booked Jamelle to speak to our Roadmap to Leadership Program members (leaders and emerging leaders). Jamelle taught the group emotional intelligence through experiential exercises and real-world case studies. He had a commanding presence that motivated the group to participate. The material was very applicable to our program and useful for leaders and emerging leaders. We would definitely recommend his workshop to other organizations.
