DANA POINT, Calif. — Former vice president and
co-founder of InkCycle Joy James has sold her minority ownership in the
company, completed a management contract and announced the start of the Joy
James Group, an independent consulting practice with the mission of growing
people and organizations.
Specializing in organizational development, marketing and
strategy, the Joy James Group offers consulting and corporate training services
such as business/marketing plans and on-site strategic-planning workshops.
A leading force within the remanufacturing industry for more
than a decade, James started her career in the remanufacturing industry working
on the senior staff of Hitachi Koki (formerly DataProducts), and later went on
to expand geographically and grow Environmental Reclamation Services before
starting InkCycle in 1998.
She has been a regular contributing writer for Recharger
Magazine since 1998, has won several industry awards and is known for
presenting high-content power management seminars. James served on the ACCR
legislative committee from 1998 to 2001, and has testified on behalf of the
remanufacturing industry in several states.
"It’s exciting to have the opportunity to share
some of my business knowledge with other companies in the industry," said
James. "My practical experience starting, growing and managing companies
(on both the raw material and finished sides of the industry) gives me unique
perspectives and insight that can save my clients valuable time and
money."
James holds both her bachelor’s and master’s
degrees in business administration/marketing from California State University
Northridge, and currently serves on the board for the California State
