COMMERCE. COMMUNITY. CULTURE. CREATION.
Bizzybody Enterprises is invested in strengthening economic development through the creation of healthy economic ecosystems involving every tier—individuals, organizations, and communities.
As a northern, Indigenous economic development firm, Bizzybody understands the need for customized culturally-based community solutions, because...
Every learner, organization, and community brings unique challenges and strengths which require unique solutions
Culturally-based, long-term relationship building, with accountability is not an aspiration, it is a bottom line
ROI is significantly improved through the application of detailed strategy and design at every level
Success doesn’t happen in silos; it is germinated and nurtured through collaboration and co-creation
Diversity is the catalyst of innovation
Conventional wisdoms of pedagogy and business are valuable, however, individuals, organizations, and communities are best served with customized solutions that address the unique factors influencing them, to include culture, geography, and worldview
Indigenous ways of knowing and being are rooted in collaborative, strengths-based approaches, that embody resilience and creative adaptability. These are principles that can improve any community, organization, or leadership practice.

A road trip to British Columbia in 2004 saw her make the spontaneous decision to move to Fort St. John, the city she now calls home with her husband Dwayne and daughter Jaylee.
Jocelyn has an extensive background in event management, facilitation and training and has worked with non-profit societies, corporations and First Nations.
