Jan subcontracts to Business Within as a Leadership Coach and Facilitator.
Jan's lifelong mission is to work with people and projects that inspire others who are invested in meaningful change at a micro and macro level. Jan’s career has traversed much of the human, business and social sectors in varied roles such as lecturer, learning designer, group facilitator, presenter, pattern catcher and leadership coach.
Jan is committed to working with others to strengthen capacity in positive ways, and that helps to foster the quality of connection necessary between people that is authentic, sincere, and trustworthy. As an accredited emotional intelligence and leadership coach, Jan prides herself on creating safe and nurturing environments where people feel safe when exploring the kinds of risks they have to take in their personal and professional areas of growth.
Jan believes in prioritising self-care as the key to any personal transformation work. It is only when we prioritise and intentionally spend time working on our internal partnerships and places of connection that transformation is possible, inherently guiding us to becoming more conscious and intentional about how we show up in the worlds we inhabit.
