About Me

I’m Jann Richardson, and I have worked in career development for more than 25 years. I love working with teams and leaders; a huge part of my career has been to help people gain clarity about their role, with the ultimate aim of progression.
Leaders carry the entire team, and the weight of that role can be substantial. Across different phases in my own career as a business and operations leader, I’ve witnessed every angle of the management spectrum, from seriously brilliant to downright awful.

In 2008 I was a recruitment manager in London when the company brought in a coach for senior managers. My immediate thought was: What could a coach possibly do for me?
After a few sessions I had the answer: clarity of vision, renewed energy and bespoke strategies to realise my goals. The change in me was profound – I studied to become a coach for leadership and personal growth and now use my skills to help professionals strengthen their own teams.

We all have dreams. Mine was to take my passion for career progression and put it to good use. Whatever yours is, I can help you achieve it.
When I’m not building positivity in the workplace, I’m strolling the Suffolk coastline with my husband and Nelly the cavapoo – no place I’d rather be.
