JANELLE ABELA BIOGRAPHY
Janelle Abela began her career as a high school educator while pursuing her own education. Reflecting on her experiences, she felt it was essential to provide growth opportunities in industries beyond the progressive education system. This led her to develop a model that allowed her to share her experiences, knowledge, and practical skills for change through a person-first approach. She remains motivated by the stories people share and her ability to enhance awareness of inequities and misconceptions surrounding equity work. As an educator, Janelle Abela works to nurture the value of diversity by expanding content and current approaches in DEI education. By doing so, Janelle’s efforts increase equity and representation, promoting success for all learners in our globalized society. Ultimately, she believes that everyone deserves to be treated with dignity, and when that doesn’t happen, she is determined to help address it.
Recently, she founded a consultancy company to increase diversity equity and inclusion in corporate settings while comprehensively benefiting the organization, employees, and clientele.
In an episode of the Advance: Women in Manufacturing podcast series, Janelle Abela discusses the importance and benefits of implementing diversity, equity, and inclusion in the workspace. She talks about how manufacturers can begin this journey, whom they can involve as part of the process and the need for continuous evaluation.
Her belief is that We all come from unique walks of life and our commitment is to support that diversity and create harmonious growth. Organizations thrive from equitable and inclusive practices and so does individual well-being. Janelle Abela is here to help you transform and grow efficiently and effectively.
She has been an Independent Consultant since 2014 and recently founded her own consultancy firm.
