About Jane Williams
“Sometimes, the best way through a brick wall isn’t straight through it; it’s around or over it.”
These words, spoken by Jane Williams’ father, perfectly represent her transformation from timid to triumphant. At a young age, Jane was known to be intellectual and creative. She even skipped ahead to the first grade, and while this helped her academically, she was personally overwhelmed by the transition, causing her to become shy and reserved. This condition seemed to plague her path for years, until the day came to do a speaking presentation for her IT graduate class.
BOARD CERTIFIED COACH (BCC)
DOCTORATE IN MANAGEMENT WITH A FOCUS ON REMOTE TEAM LEADERSHIP (DM/IST)
DESIGN THINKING CERTIFIED
Jane realized that she didn’t want to be remembered for falling apart and failing... but remembered for giving an amazing performance.
The time had come to find her fire and rise to the challenge, which is exactly what she did.
This launched a transformation that not only gave her the courage and confidence to speak up and stand up for herself, it fueled an enormously successful career at IBM, where she flourished in a male-dominated industry over the next two decades. During her time there, she gained extensive experience managing global teams in Fortune 500 companies and a multitude of industries.
And, after making her way around many brick walls and traveling across the world, she knew it was time to ignite her solo career and pay it forward.
Today, Jane coaches ambitious women in IT to get clarity on their career, claim their voice, and find their fire.
Jane is an exceptional problem solver who is certified in Design Thinking, with a Masters in Information Technology and a Doctorate in Leadership of Remote Teams. She actively listens and creates order out of the chaos to help her clients clarify and capture their desired career path.
Jane’s mission is to offer a bespoke experience that combines coaching and mentorship while encouraging and inspiring women across the globe.
“After a long corporate career in which I worked with a coach to overcome lack of confidence, haziness in my goals, and fear of speaking out, I had the opportunity to give back. So many women in IT have trouble defining their own success, making themselves heard, and learning to lead. I can help them define success without compromise, find their voice, and make a difference in their company and the world.”
