Meet Janine

Empowering individuals, teams and organisations to be bold, be brave and be the best they can be is more than a tagline, it is Janine’s reason for being in business.  “To work with a person, a team or a company over time and watch the transformation and see the benefits is magic”

Be Bold, Be Brave, Be You - is more than a tagline

They are ways of being and operating that embody;

–  what I want to be known for (personal brand)

–  what I would want clients to say about me (legacy) 

–  what I want clients to experience when they interact with me (client experience)

–  and how I hold myself accountable (integrity)

The Engagement Experience

  • The primary focus is outcomes for the individual, the team or the company
  • Equal importance is placed on aligning strategy, goals & deliverables with culture & behaviour.
  • Every client is different so therefore every engagement and conversation will be different. One solution does not fit all. 
  • Understanding the “why” behind engagement is critical
  • The preference is always to partner and to allow transformation over time rather than one off events.
  • CEO and Senior Leadership buy in is strongly encouraged and we work with Leaders to walk the talk and role model the right behaviours towards the culture and change they want
