We started JXG Consulting with one clear goal: to redefine what work can feel like in small businesses. Too often, talented employees leave because they don’t feel seen, and business owners burn out trying to do everything alone. Drawing from years of experience in leadership, psychology, and communication, we set out to create practical, people-first solutions that help workplaces keep their talent and build stronger futures.
Our mission is simple: to help small businesses thrive by creating workplaces where people want to stay. We believe employee engagement and retention shouldn’t be out of reach for local businesses. Through affordable, flexible workshops and consulting, we give owners and teams the tools to build trust, strengthen communication, and reduce turnover. When people feel valued at work, businesses grow stronger—and so do the communities they serve.
Our work is guided by three values that shape every solution we deliver: Sustainability, Empathy, and Collaboration. We design strategies that small businesses can actually maintain, we empathize with both owners and teams, and we collaborate to create solutions that fit your culture. The result is healthier workplaces, stronger retention, and businesses that contribute more fully to the communities they serve.
At JXG Consulting, we help small retail businesses build teams that thrive. With a focus on employee retention and engagement, our work is rooted in practical strategies, strong communication, and people-first leadership. Meet the duo behind the mission:
