Executive and Organisational Coach
Elevate Leadership
As an Executive and Organisational Coach, Josette founded Elevate Leadership out of a passion for empowering leaders to have an incredible impact. With over two decades of experience in Financial Services, Retail, and Utilities across Auckland, Sydney, and London, she specialises in partnering with leaders to unlock potential and accelerate the delivery of their business and organisational goals.
In today's world, where time is scarce and the role of a leader is growing in complexity, Josette’s clients value the objective and confidential space she provides. Here, they can unpack their biggest challenges, gain clarity, and walk away with actionable steps to drive themselves, their teams, and their businesses forward.
Josette’s journey began in Sydney, where growing up in a large family sparked her curiosity about what makes people tick. Her love for connecting with people and adventure led her to the UK, where she commenced her head-hunting career. Upon returning to Sydney, she led teams and people programs in Financial Services, building career pathways for underrepresented demographics.
In 2018, she moved to Auckland and transitioned from leading teams to coaching leaders. In late 2023, Elevate Leadership was born. At Elevate, she supports leaders through one-on-one coaching, leadership team coaching, facilitation, and public speaking.
Josette has spoken on topics on a range of topics, all related to leading well in this modern day. Topics such as Leading Successfully in Complex Organisations, Going from Good to Great Leadership. Strengths based Leadership, Leading with Authenticity, Leading with impact and How to Inspire Change. She loves helping leaders navigate their challenging roles to achieve exceptional results.
