Indigenous Business - Consulting, training, workshops & mentorship

Takoda Consulting is an Indigenous female-owned consultancy that focuses on working with male-dominated industries on how to better recruit, retain and support women. I am grateful to have a dual MBA Cornell & Queens - Graduating in 2023 and officially launched Takoda Consulting in the fall of 2023. While we're thrilled with the influx of opportunities, we're facing challenges in critical areas where additional support could be invaluable: 1. Leveraging AI: Exploring AI applications for both Takoda Consulting and our clientele to optimize operations and outcomes. 2. Streamlining Inquiry Management: Developing a structured system to manage inquiries from various channels effectively, including our website, email, and personal networks. 3. Enhancing Scheduling Efficiency: Improving our scheduling system to ensure seamless client communication and appointment booking processes. Recently paid for Motion APP and need help and accountability to get going. 4. Research on First Nations across Canada: Understanding what resource extraction and development projects impact the nations in their regions. Gain clarity on the structure of the Nation and its operations as well as demographics and historical challenges. 5 .Create and build a simple structure for financial business tracking. Annual calendar and steps to ensure nothing is missed due to overwhelm by other tasks. We're eager to collaborate with students to gain fresh perspectives and support in: - Reviewing and refining our company vision and promotion strategies. - Simplifying intake management processes and harnessing innovative ideas. - Engaging in market analysis to identify niche opportunities and competitor landscapes. -Building out our mentorship program and launching the initial pilot program. We'll align tasks with students' passions and strengths upon finding suitable matches to maximize their impact and satisfaction within our collaborative environment.
