Training for challenging times
our mission and vision
To help empower and educate people through running training courses that are entertaining.
To help revolutionise training, so no one ever again attends a training course that's so boring, or so irrelevant, that it's a total waste of time, money and effort, or even worse, leaves attendees feeling despondent and worried about their career choice.
To help people be happy with their career choices.
To help training managers, line managers and individuals, by providing a safe place for them to talk confidentially about training needs.
To help banish bad, boring and indifferent courses to the history books.
To help ensure people and organisations get value for money from training sessions.
To help people who accidentally hold themselves back, to be their best self.

In her spare time Jane runs an online magazine Adventure She www.adventureshe.com which aims to empower, educate and entertain people through sharing stories of adventure. Jane is a bit of an adventurer herself, having raced across New Zealand in the infamous Speights Coast to Coast, completed the Marathon des Sables (a seven day, approximately 250 kms, self supporting foot race in the Sahara desert) and qualifying for and finishing the 2017 IRONMAN 70.3 World Championships at her first attempt.
