So, What’s The Leadership Remix, Anyway?
Welcome to a new conversation about leadership—one that’s honest, culturally relevant, and built for the world we actually live in. My name is Janae, and I help emerging leaders, teams, and organizations find their voice, develop their style, and lead change with intention and authenticity.
Why Leadership Needs a Remix
Leadership isn’t about fitting into a mold or chasing someone else’s blueprint. It’s about discovering your own approach, challenging old assumptions, and building genuine relationships that move people and organizations forward. The Leadership Remix was born out of a simple but radical idea: everyone has the potential to lead. I believe leadership gets stronger when we bring our whole selves — our stories, our cultures, and yes, sometimes even our favorite playlists — to the table.
My Philosophy: Relational, Critical, and Inclusive
My work is guided by a few core beliefs:
Leadership is for everyone. There’s no single path or personality type that defines a leader. I support new and underrepresented leaders in finding their own way, not just following the crowd.
Change starts with connection. Real transformation happens when we build trust, embrace vulnerability, and create space for honest dialogue. I help leaders and organizations move beyond surface-level fixes to foster cultures where people feel seen, heard, and valued.
Critical thinking matters. I encourage clients to question the status quo, examine systems and structures, and lead with both courage and discernment. Leadership isn’t just about getting results; it’s about doing so ethically and equitably.
Collaboration over competition. In a world shaped by individualism and rapid change, I believe in the power of collective agency — working together to achieve goals that matter, and celebrating the unique contributions of every team member.
What I Offer
Through leadership coaching, change management consulting, and other custom services, I work with individuals and organizations to:
Navigate leadership transitions and new roles
Build inclusive, resilient teams
Develop strategies for meaningful, sustainable change
Facilitate feedback, reflection, and growth
My approach is informed by research and real-world experience in education, nonprofit, and public sectors. I draw on frameworks that prioritize self-efficacy, group efficacy, and the collective intelligence of teams. And while I sometimes use music as a metaphor or mood-setter—because a great team, like a great song, depends on harmony, rhythm, and the courage to improvise — my focus is always on what works for you.
Who I Serve
The Leadership Remix is a space for emerging leaders, curious thinkers, and anyone who wants to lead with more purpose and less pretense. If you value self-awareness, continuous learning, and authentic connection, you’ll find a home here.
Let’s Build Something New—Together
The world doesn’t need more “cover artist” leaders. It needs people who are willing to remix what’s come before, challenge what doesn’t serve us, and create new pathways for collective action and growth. If you’re ready to explore your leadership style, tackle real challenges, and build a culture where everyone can thrive, I’m here to help.
Let’s start the conversation—and see what we can create when we lead with intention, heart, and a little bit of soul.
