“My company engaged Jane and 4T Consulting twice. The first time was to assess our organization and as a result, we then engaged her to work with three of our directors through her program. Upon completion of the program, we saw each director’s positive progress with themselves and how they worked with their teams. Jane actively worked with Management to set goals and inform them about progress without breaking the confidentiality between her participants. Jane is an experienced coach and partner for any organization looking for coaching. We will engage her again when the need arises.”

“Our sessions together were immensely helpful. Our conversations led me to some serious introspection regarding my strengths and weaknesses as a manager and as a professional, and really built my confidence as a leader and mentor for my team.  I was insecure about my capabilities to lead and train and provide adequate guidance for my colleagues.  Our sessions helped to build confidence in my capabilities.  It’s never been clearer that my insecurities were, in fact, insecurities.”

“I hired Jane to run a short-term, highly strategic project for one of our clients at The Many. Jane was able to hit the ground running and operationalize both the team and clients on day 1. I trusted Jane implicitly with leading our internal team and engaging directly with clients. She also was able to coach and guide team members throughout the process. The project was a success as we are now moving on to the next phase, and the client was quite pleased. I would bring Jane on again in a heartbeat.”

I couldn’t recommend her services and the experience of working with a career coach enough!” ~ Peter Drobnjak
“Jane is, and has always been, one of the best career coaches’ I’ve known. She is someone with a natural ability to read people, understand obstacles and help them overcome and progress. I’ve known Jane professionally and personally for over 12 years. She has helped me through the toughest of times in my own career, including thriving in an extremely challenging role. It was at that time I knew that Jane’s future career was going to be, it had to be, coaching.

She’s a natural mentor, a savvy businesswoman and someone who so many people trust and love.” ~ Marie Domato
“When you meet Jane you instantly feel lucky – because it’s so rare to find someone that is as inspiring, compassionate, accomplished and humble. I have had the honor of having her in my life first as a manager, then a mentor, a coach and a friend. For over 10 years I have confided in her and each time have walked away with not only clarity on my professional direction but a sense of peace within my personal life as well. She is equal parts mind and heart. Her integrity is only matched by her uncanny ability to solve a problem from a perspective no one has thought of. She is an incredible human being whose purpose on this earth is to ensure the people around her reach their fullest potential.” ~ Michael Mattinger
