Inspired by Happenchance:
The Journey of Candice Ellis
OUR AWARDS
Personal Story:
My business journey began by what I call happenchance. After spending over 15 years in a business I grew up in, I decided to step away to complete my practicum for my master’s in Psychology. During this period of transition, I updated my LinkedIn profile status to reflect my new focus. In May 2016, I received a call that changed the course of my career. A small minority business owner reached out, seeking assistance with organizational and leadership development. This unexpected opportunity inspired me to combine my extensive experience in business with my newly acquired expertise in psychology.
Recognizing a unique niche where I could make a significant impact, I founded C.A. Ellis & Associates, LLC. With a passion for helping organizations achieve sustainable growth and operational excellence, I set out to provide comprehensive consulting services that integrate business strategies with psychological principles. My background includes over 25 years of experience in leadership development, process optimization, project management, and compliance, particularly within the MN DHS 245D framework.
Driven by a commitment to support small businesses, government agencies, and non-profit organizations, my team and I are dedicated to fostering both personal and organizational success. Through tailored solutions and a holistic approach, we aim to help our clients navigate complex challenges, optimize their operations, and reach their pinnacle of success.
