Where did the name
Citrus HR Solutions
come from?
I was basically born citrus. My maiden name is Limin. It’s pronounced LIME-in.
A.K.A.: Lime + Lemon
I also love the way citrus makes me feel. It makes me feel energized, alive, alert, uplifted, and healthy.
These are all things I help enable in the workplace through HR policy, practices, training, and advising.
Why does Citrus HR Solutions exist?
People are amazing. And unique.
Though we all benefit from certain structures, such as general HR policies and an understanding of our role & responsibilities, we also each have unique needs that help us reach our full potential.
That unique touch might be a workplace accommodation, taking a complaint seriously, listening to and acting on employee engagement survey results, adapting our communication or leadership style, or it could even just be asking someone about their pet.
A business needs productive people for success. I am all about creating an environment that enables people doing their best work. It’s that citrus vibe of happy, healthy, focused, & energized. I’m here to uplift, focus, and energize your people.
All organizations who employ people deserve HR support.
I work with organizations that have not quite reached the size or revenue to warrant hiring a full-time HR employee, and those needing additional expertise. HR enables healthy, productive people who are aligned to the business, builds confidence in leaders, and reduces organizational risk. All organizations who employ people deserve these things.
Offering HR services on an as-needed basis makes HR expertise more affordable, and more accessible.
Hi, I’m Candiece. (Pronounced “can-DEECE”), the founder of Citrus HR Solutions. I was born in the beautiful province of Saskatchewan. After completing a degree in Psychology at the U of S, I moved to Asia and taught for 7 years. I loved every minute of it. When it was time to return home, HR was a natural career change. Recruitment and new employee orientation had always appealed to me. When I realised how broad HR was – policies, compensation, health & safety, diversity & inclusion, etc. – I was hooked. I started my HR degree from Japan, and finished it at York University in Ontario, with honours.
Since that time, I’ve worked with Credit Unions across Saskatchewan, at the U of S, with government (Northwest Territories, and in SK.), and non-profit organizations, covering almost all aspects of HR.
Along the way, I’ve added additional certifications in communication effectiveness, productive conflict, leadership training, change management, job evaluation, and advanced certification in workplace investigations.
I hold the designation of Chartered Professional in Human Resources (CPHR), with an award for having achieved the top mark on the national knowledge exam, and have volunteered with CPHR Saskatchewan for many years. I am currently a member of the provincial Discipline Committee.
I love HR. I do this for every individual inside an organization. I do this for business owners, to support their success. I do this to empower, calm anxiety, and build confidence in leaders so that they are equipped to bring out the best in their people. It’s all about the people.
