In the Spotlight with Janne Fossberg
Tell us about yourself.
I am an Assurance Partner in the Vancouver office. I work with private companies, charities and non-profit organizations.
Outside of work, what keeps you busy?
I love to spend time out and about with my dog. Rain or shine, you will find us in a park or at the beach. Everyone in my family lives in a different province, so I also spend a lot of time traveling to visit everyone – pre-COVID-19. Now I spend a lot of time on the phone.
Has there been anything positive you have witnessed/seen from the recent crisis?
People spending more time exploring their own neighbourhoods.
How do you think Baker Tilly WM will need to adapt to the new world following COVID-19?
COVID-19 brought with it many changes to the work place. Working remotely, new ways of communicating internally and with our clients. The changes took place very quickly. I think we all need to be accepting of the fact that more change is sure to come. We need to expect change.
What do you value most about working at Baker Tilly WM?
Without a doubt the people. We spend a large part of our lives at work, so it’s important to enjoy the people you work with, and I have found a really wonderful group of people here at Baker Tilly WM.
