About Nancy Obymako
 

For more than 10 years, Jan Baker Facilitates has been making human resource management easier in organizations.  From our roots in team building and conflict resolution, we have become a full service human resource consulting firm. Our positive, energetic professionals offer practical expertise in every area of professional human resource management. 

Jan Baker and Nancy Obymako have many years of successful H.R. management experience. They bring vitality with integrity to every work project. They also bring humor into a sometimes "humorless" array of issues and problems. They never lose respect for the human spirit.

Our Values

  • We are customer driven, always looking out for the customer's best interest.

  • We are creative catalysts for energetic change; we are not just "exerts".

  • We stay well informed and provide current and thoughtful advice.

  • We work from a place of abundance, knowing our limits and providing alternative resources as appropriate.

  • We keep a sense of humor and perspective at all times.

  • We perform our work collaboratively with joy, compassion, integrity and results!
