She is also the host of her own podcast, Unleashing Brilliance, featuring the untold stories of individual success from people around the world.
Janine believes that today, more than ever we need people, teams and companies willing to put in the extra needed to be truly brilliant. That we need leaders who are connected to their purpose and who will drive change. We need individuals brilliant enough to lead both in today’s complex environment and into tomorrow’s unknowns. This requires collaboration, transformation and leverage and it demands better conversations, training and connection.
