Taleo Project Services

At Taleo, we’re a team of 10. 6 of us are women.

On International Women’s Day, that’s worth recognizing.

Not because we set out to hit a number, but because culture shapes who chooses to be part of a team.

We’re proud of the women at Taleo; the project leaders, problem-solvers, and steady operators who bring both precision and perspective to the work.

We’re also lucky to collaborate with many talented women who work with us as consultants across the projects we support, helping organizations deliver complex initiatives every day.

Today feels like a good moment to recognize the women who contribute to that work, both within Taleo and across the projects we’re proud to be part of.

✨️ Wishing everyone a warm and safe holiday season, and a happy new year!

A couple of weeks ago, Taleo hosted it's annual holiday social to celebrate all of the great work our clients and consultants have done in 2025 🎉

We had a great evening filled with delicious food and drinks, competitive - yet friendly, dart games and lots of laughs!

The Taleo Team has been hard at work finishing up the 2025 year and looking forward to recharging over the holiday season 🎄 ✨

📲 The Taleo Perspective: Why Return-To-Office Mandates Are Failing

Picture this scenario: Sarah arrives at the office at 9 AM, settles into her cubicle, opens her laptop, and immediately joins a Teams call with colleagues who are sitting three floors away. She spends the next six hours in back-to-back virtual meetings, barely interacting with the person sitting two feet from her.

Sound familiar? 🤔

📲 The Taleo Perspective: The Lost Art of "Hello"

After two weeks of networking at the whirlwind event that is the Calgary Stampede, it’s clear that socializing in true, meaningful conversations has become a lost art.

Someone walks up, asks for your LinkedIn profile, and disappears before you’ve even had a chance to say more than a few words. It’s frustrating, isn’t it? But it’s also a wake-up call. We’re missing out on countless opportunities to connect in a world where everyone has a story worth sharing.

It’s time to reclaim the art of saying "Hello"!
