What Does "COR" Mean?

The name "COR" holds deep significance, both personally and philosophically. Derived from Jaimi's last name, "COR" translates to "heart" in Latin and serves as the root for the word "courage." Historically, courage has meant "to speak one's mind by telling all one's heart," embodying a profound commitment to authenticity and transparency.

Additionally, "COR" can express interest, admiration, and surprise—qualities that resonate deeply in our work. This name is a tribute to Jaimi’s grandmother, whose life was characterized by unwavering love, hard work, and determination. At COR, we aspire to embody these values in our consulting practices, fostering genuine connections and courageous conversations with our clients.
