People make decisions emotionally and justify them with logic.

Most people focus on either logic or relationships when trying to generate change… but the magic occurs when both are employed.

I show you how to make emotional connections and structure a logical rationale, tapping into both aspects to achieve “Yes”.

Compelling Connections that drive trust, understanding and action

Connect with people
Understand what matters to someone before trying to influence them, so you can shape ideas and communications that resonate with them.

Connect the dots
Merge data, insight and experience to create and communicate compelling data stories, ensuring commercial decisions are based on evidence rather than opinion.

Connect teams
Pull together groups working in silos, expanding performance through collaboration. Find shared ground, discuss issues and ideas honestly, solve problems and deliver value.

Working with individuals and groups who want to increase their impact:

  • Leaders driving change

  • Managers maximising team performance

  • Insights professionals converting insights into action

  • Salespeople developing strategic relationships to grow business

If these sound familiar, Compelling Connections can help:

“I have a robust, value-generating suggestion but I’m failing to gain traction."

“My data has been intentionally misrepresented to drive someone’s personal agenda.”

"Our insights team overwhelms their stakeholders with data, leaving them unclear, frustrated and unable to make fully informed decisions.”

“We’re implementing AI and need genuine engagement & commitment"

"I know I need to ‘sell’ my products / services / ideas, but I’m not (and do NOT want to be!) a ‘salesperson’."

“Teams are working in silos. There is conflict and we’re being inefficient.”

"I’m avoiding a difficult conversation - with a peer or a senior - and it’s impacting relationships and performance."

"Someone on my team is underperforming and I need to address it."

“My coaching with Jane came when I was at a career crossroad. Jane provoked me – in a caring way – to honestly identify both personal and organisational factors that were holding me back, and to make a plan to address them (and implement it!). Our sessions were incredibly valuable and I would strongly recommend Jane as a coach.”

Chloe Aboud, Account Executive, Data & AI Consultancy

Working with Jane as an executive coach was a genuinely valuable experience. She helped me work through a period of career development and gave me the space and structure to think more clearly about the kind of leader I want to be. Her questions were sharp and insightful, and she had a knack for helping me see my own patterns and blind spots without ever being prescriptive. I came away with greater clarity about my leadership style and more confidence in the decisions ahead of me. I'd recommend her warmly to anyone looking to grow as a leader.
