ALLÉE & CO.
the story of
Allée & Co. is a strategic learning and development consultancy that builds the gap between traditional training and modern learning needs. We partner with organizations to create learning experiences that drive real engagement, close critical skill gaps, and deliver measurable business impact. Through our signature TIME framework and decades of cross-sector expertise, we transform how organizations approach human development in today's digital-first world, solving real business and people's needs.
Our Inspiration
Our name draws inspiration from the French concept of an allée—the grand pathways found in classical landscape design, where rows of trees line a path and are meticulously crafted to create a unified path toward a shared destination. Just as master landscape architects plan every element of an allée with precision and purpose, we approach each partnership with strategic intention, collaboration, shared vision, and thoughtful design.
We understand that every transformational learning journey begins with a single strategic step forward. Like a thoughtfully designed allée, success lies not solely in reaching the destination, but in the meaningful development that occurs throughout the process—skills are strengthened, confidence is built, relationships are enhanced, and organizational impact is amplified.

Meet Our CEO & Founder
Dr. Janay Minich
Welcome to Allée & Co., I am delighted you're here!
With over twenty years of experience in corporate learning development and training, a Doctorate in Leadership Curriculum and Teaching, and hundreds of hours designing transformational learning experiences, I've dedicated my career to helping others achieve their goals. Allée & Co. was born from this passion—a dream that took shape in the early 2010s, inspired by my work alongside some of the industry's most talented professionals.
I was honored with awards in innovation and creativity, led seminars on 21st-century learning, and explored how neurodiversity strengthens problem-solving. But these milestones were only possible because of organizations that valued bold thinking and supported groundbreaking approaches.
Throughout my career, I've witnessed the remarkable potential that emerges when visionary organizations invest in transformational learning experiences. I've both contributed to and led exceptionally talented teams that consistently pushed the boundaries of what's possible in learning and development, placing the modern learner at the heart of our innovation.
These collaborative experiences revealed a powerful truth: the most impactful solutions emerge when creative minds unite with shared purpose. Working with forward-thinking teams, we didn't just meet expectations—we redefined them, exploring immersive learning, disruptive technology, and storytelling approaches that transcended traditional compliance models.
This journey ignited something deeper: a passion for solving real business challenges I witnessed daily. I saw talented leaders battling low employee engagement as their teams disengaged from outdated training that failed to resonate. I watched organizations paralyzed by technology integration—eager to embrace AI and digital tools but uncertain how to implement them without disrupting workflows. Most frustratingly, I observed significant investments in learning initiatives without clear metrics to demonstrate ROI or performance improvements.
I knew what was possible. I'd seen leaders transform when confident in their capabilities, and witnessed what organizations could accomplish with cutting-edge learning strategies that addressed these exact pain points. I wanted to build something that would amplify this transformation—to help businesses bridge the gap between traditional training and the measurable outcomes their stakeholders demand.
This became my why.
Allée & Co. evolved into more than a business—it became my mission to create a company that equips organizations with the knowledge, skills, and creativity to transform learning from an annual obligation into a continuous driver of engagement, seamless technology integration, and measurable business impact.
Today, we're building teams and partnerships obsessed with proving that learning can be the competitive advantage that changes everything—with the data to back it up.
Looking forward to partnering with you on this transformational journey,
Dr. Janay Minich
CEO | Founder of Allée & Co.
