About

Caroline Lemay has accumulated a rich and varied experience in dispute prevention and resolution (DPR) for over 15 years now. Since 2017, she specialized in the management of sexual misconduct and sexual ethics in an organizational setting.

She is a member of the Quebec Bar and the Forum of Canadian Ombudsman as well as an accredited mediator. She is also trained in organizational ethics and prevention of psychological health risks in the workplace.

With a law degree (LL.L / J.D.) and a graduate specialization in DRP, Caroline began her career abroad with the International Committee of the Red Cross, which acts as an ombudsman for victims of armed conflict. During her various mandates with the organization, in addition to providing legal advice, she has conducted more than 300 impartial administrative investigations and negotiated with the authorities in place to respect the fundamental rights of victims of conflict. She has also accompanied national authorities and public administration representatives in the implementation of recommendations aimed at optimizing the management of prison resources, for a better respect of the rights of detainees.

Upon her return to Canada, Caroline led various mediation and conflict resolution projects in the community sector with vulnerable populations. She was also a member of the multidisciplinary research team of the Charbonneau Commission, dealing with issues of ethics and corruption.

Unable to find in the legal profession the necessary space to emphasize a humane sense of fairness, which allowed her to obtain unexpected results in her previous experiences, she founded her consulting and intervention firm in order to offer an approach to regulation that is more adapted, more humane and more participative.

Since 2017, Caroline has specialized in the management of sexual misconduct in the organizational setting. The variety of her experience allows her to advise management on the right measures to take to manage these delicate situations in a compassionate and fair manner and to implement rigorous and effective informal interventions that meet the needs of the complainants while ensuring the fair treatment of those involved.

Caroline is recognized for her professional versatility, her sense of ethics, her humanity, her thoroughness and her pragmatism.

Our vision

Respect and protect human dignity by fostering a sense of justice among members of a community through the development of a participative dialogue rooted in kindness.

****

We chose the letter “Omega” to name our company because, through its various definitions, it perfectly illustrates our vision.

Indeed, in mathematics, Omega means “complete” and reminds us of our global approach.

In biology, it refers to what is at the root of everything, which illustrates our desire to involve the people who are at the root of the problem being addressed.

Finally, in philosophy, it represents the term of social maturation, which consecrates our ultimate goal – the autonomy and empowerment of the members of our society.

Our approach

Global, ethical, and pragmatic

Our intervention considers the point of view of the various stakeholders, the culture in which they evolve, and the specific role that each of them plays in the common action.

By identifying the values and principles that are conducive to the achievement of common goals, we can then identify creative and effective solutions that are tailored to the context, by its stakeholders.

Integrative, human, and equitable

We believe in the accountability and autonomy of the parties by tapping into their full potential, while respecting each other’s limitations. Involving the parties by giving them a voice is a guarantee of success in creating a community that values health and equity.

Our adherence to the principle of equity allows for a transparent approach that inspires a sense of respect and fairness for all, and in the eyes of all.

Multidisciplinary and thorough

In order to ensure the thoroughness of the process and the objectivity of the results, we value a multidisciplinary approach which succeeds in grasping all the dynamics at work, thanks to the richness of the analysis it enables.
