Innovative Learning Group Adds to Team

Innovative Learning Group has two new team members: Senior Consultant Jim Naughton and Project Coordinator Lauralei Pariseau.

“Jim and Lauralei are great additions to our team and will help us serve our clients as they address the needs of their modern learners,” says CEO Lisa Toenniges.

Naughton has more than 30 years of experience delivering learning and strategic business services and has held a variety of leadership and consultant roles. Most recently, he provided learning leadership services to The Dow Chemical Company through his firm 1World4Learning, LLC.

Previously, Naughton worked at the Detroit Medical Center, where he served as a management trainer and continuous improvement consultant. He also was a senior consultant at the former Farmington Hills, Michigan–based Triad Performance Technologies.

Naughton has a master’s degree in industrial psychology and a bachelor’s degree in psychology from Western Michigan University.

As a project coordinator, Lauralei contributes to all aspects of ILG’s development process. She assists project managers with their administrative responsibilities, including forecasting budgets, creating contracts, managing project schedules, and coordinating review meetings.

Prior to joining ILG in 2018, Pariseau was a training and development intern at Rock Connections in Detroit; she worked with the associate vice president of training and development to create a self-paced learning platform to promote growth opportunities for team members.

Pariseau is currently pursuing a bachelor’s degree in learning design and technology, with a minor in dance, at Wayne State University. She expects to graduate in May 2019.
