I work with organisations across the public and private sectors to help leaders and teams strengthen the so‑called “soft skills” that are actually the hardest: feedback, courageous conversations, public speaking and authentic connection.

​

I’m accredited to deliver Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI) and use it to deepen self-awareness, improve communication and build understanding across different working styles.

​

Right now, I’m especially interested in: trust, feedback cultures, hard conversations, brave spaces, compassionate leadership, values, creative team development, deep listening, coaching approaches and coaching cultures.

“Jana was amazing - I'm sure this comes back a lot but it can't be said enough. To have an individual who can elicit such positive emotions and responses from a cohort of individuals, moulding them towards being a cohesive group is a special skill set and she's a real valued asset”

My strength lies in building inclusive, compassionate and courageous communities and cultures, with particular experience in self-awareness, creativity and innovation, and courageous conversations. I support leaders and teams to think and do differently, so they can be more agile and creative in how they respond to challenges.

​

My sessions often centre fun, play and creativity, because they unlock innovation, confidence and connection far more effectively than another slide deck ever will. When people feel safe enough to experiment, laugh, take risks and fail forward, you get better ideas, stronger relationships and teams who actually enjoy working together.
