Employee Spotlight: Viv Novotny Brings Heart, Humor, and Honesty to Her Work
True growth happens when people are empowered to discover and develop their strengths. Few stories illustrate that better than Viv Novotny’s, who recently celebrated 25 years with JEO.
Starting in our Accounting department and evolving into a key role on our Client Development team, Viv’s journey reflects our commitment to helping employees embrace their talents and explore new paths that align with both their passions and purpose.
A Natural Relationship-Builder
As a client relationship representative, Viv has spent her career building connections rooted in honesty, trust, and genuine care. These qualities make her a natural relationship-builder and a valued partner to both her colleagues and clients.
Over the years, she’s attended countless conferences, made numerous pit stops in the communities we serve, and regularly checks in with clients— many of whom have become close friends.
A Philosophy That Builds Trust
Viv’s philosophy is simple: Be honest, be prepared, and always put the client’s needs first.
“Clients understand that mistakes happen. They just want transparency. Find a common denominator and let the conversation flow from there.”
