Who's Dominique Bourgoing? Every team needs energy players. When times are down, energy players rise and take the lead. When times are up, energy players maintain the momentum. Dominique is Dovico's top energy player! As Dovico's user-experience and interface designer, Dominique is one of the few people that I know who are genuinely made for the career they have chosen.

Who's J-D Thibodeau? He's the guy you will have a chat with when you need support. In his words: "I help people get back to work," and he does this exceptionally well with a friendly and personable approach. When he's not busy helping our clients get back to work, J-D can be found in his basement jamming with his band or pouring over the internet researching supercars. J-D cites his parents and grandparents as great inspirations in his life, and you can feel that when he speaks of them. J-D most significant accomplishment was hearing his band's song played on a local radio station for the first time (it was amazing as I was there to listen to it!) Random fact about J-D? He is an ambidextrous drummer!

Change happens to everyone every day. Taking time to think about it makes you a little less reactive and a lot more proactive. When you are proactive to change, you can manage it better and understand it more clearly than if you just let it happen to you. Owen Vibert, Dovico Product Manager and Kayla Breelove Carter, owner of Breelove Counselling discuss change in businesses and personal lives, and the forces behind how we deal with it.
