LEAD through TRANSITION

Growth and increased responsibility often arrive at the same time. Broader scope, competing priorities and constant visibility can slow decision-making, create isolation at the top and quietly push even experienced leaders toward exhaustion.

Worth Coaching creates the space senior leaders and founders need to think clearly, reset focus and lead with confidence, with a trusted, enterprise-experienced thinking partner.

As a former leadership executive and coaching expert with over 20 years of experience in ASX-listed companies and small to medium businesses, I understand these challenges. This is why I am passionate about helping others achieve their leadership potential quickly, successfully, and confidently.

Lead with purpose and confidence when it matters most

At Worth Coaching, we work alongside senior leaders and founders to cut through noise, recalibrate focus and strengthen how leadership shows up day to day. We identify what no longer serves you, including outdated ways of working, overloaded operating rhythms or unhelpful patterns and create space for what matters most: clear priorities, decisive leadership and sustained performance.

Our personalised 1:1 Executive Leadership Acceleration Program strengthens judgement, challenges entrenched thinking and sharpens executive presence while supporting your personal sustainability, enabling you to lead with authority, clarity and confidence when the stakes are high.

  • Having decided to choose Janette as my Leadership Coach it was my best business decision in 2024!

    I sought Janette’s help as I transitioned from sole trader to a Company Director.  It was my best business decision of 2024! In our first strategy session, I quickly realised my goals, which included my desire to establish an office and expand my business. Through subsequent coaching sessions, I developed strategies and support mechanisms, including financial planning. I now understand my value and the operational rhythm of my business, and I have an established support network and processes to follow when facing new challenges. I feel more confident about my role and positive about the future.  Janette’s warmth, strength, intuition and her honest coaching style was fabulous, and I would recommend her to any business owner or Senior Executive facing a transition.

  • I got the new job, the right new job.

    I first asked Janette if she would be willing to coach me as I was looking to change jobs. I would normally just start applying for those that interested me, but I wanted to reposition myself in the market and make sure I moved to the right role.
