  1. Nurturing Talent: Mentoring and coaching individual and group leadership capabilities
  2. Values Coach: Assisting teams to build a company-wide reputation that is value-driven & customer focused

To achieve the above, Jan mentors executive teams in sound business acumen, healthy group dynamics and successful partnering principles. She assists leaders to develop personally tailored strategies, so they feel more in control, as they navigate their daily challenges.  Jan also facilitates company boards to prepare their corporate vision and values, then assists the leadership team to translate this into tangible objectives.

For Jan, establishing and strengthening connections between individuals inside a team, or between companies to form a partnering network, still remains the most powerful and exciting way to conduct our business. Collaborative relationships are all-important if we wish to create a robust, thriving business.

 

Jan Kelly's Personal Business Values

Jan's purpose is to assist people to their potential. Her prime focus is to enhance this latent talent and add value of another's daily endeavours. She passionately values:

Values

Rationale

Proactive Collaboration

Business Context: People
Building thriving relationships

Rust never sleeps (Neil Young)

Sense of Belonging: We are all in the business of Communication. Inspire others with personal conviction, generosity and fairness. Let nothing that undermines our vision slip through to the Keeper. Cynical one-liners damage relationships, destroy culture and erode respect. They also chip away at our reputation. Have a heightened awareness for group values, to foster functional dynamics. Successful partnerships are never based on dominance and submissiveness but on genuine equality. Our role: Assist others to feel bigger for longer.

Accountable Choices

Business Context: Performance
Improving business acumen

Track record is everything (Warren Buffet)

Sense of Direction: Destiny is determined by our daily agenda. We are how we spend our time! When we are clear on our vision and values, our daily decisions become simple. 'Maximum strategic gain' requires a laser-beam focus on where we can have the greatest impact. Transparency and openness will identify mistakes quickly. Being responsible for our decisions accelerates learning. Better an imperfect idea be implemented by passionate people, than implement the perfect idea by people who don't care!

Compelling Clarity

Business Context: Position
Growing market share

Know the difference between a king and a pawn (David Ogilvy)

Sense of Purpose: Growing our business requires we have a heightened awareness of what really matters for the long-term. Strong business acumen begins with daily conversations about Purpose, with initiatives that build brand and market reputation. These are our 'Kings and Queens'. Focus energy on future growth opportunities, not past failures. Discerning opportunities, seamless innovation and integrity is King. Give away the Pawns, but never give away the King!
