JLA's clients included many of New York City's premier financial institutions, Healthcare and general industry companies.

There she had been involved in Knowledge Management, Leadership Development, Organizational Learning and Corporate Culture Change. During the 8 years she was at JPMC, she was instrumental in implementing numerous change initiatives with broad, organizational impact. Working closely with senior leadership, she created, organized and facilitated Communities of Practice, Knowledge Broker Networks and built Knowledge Management systems designed to enhance productivity and organizational efficiencies based on scale, elimination of waste and redundancy. She also led numerous change projects designed to energize collaboration, transform work environments, focus business processes, and engage people in building effective platforms for organizational learning and individual growth and self-development. Recently, she has re-engaged her passion around working with women professionals and is launching a new business entity. Her program, "Success Strategies for Women" will focus on the promotion, development and enhancement of the inherent leadership talent in every woman. Jo will continue with her public speaking and consulting career - helping people and business clients achieve their "area of excellence" in whatever it is they do. Jo is currently self-publishing a personal memoir and will continue to seek opportunities to work with children and schools in ways that build leadership skills and promote individual empowerment.
