01 About ———
From the boardroom to building a better path forward
For more than 20 years, Janelle Powlett built her career where business performance, people, and leadership intersect. As a finance executive and Vice President, she helped shape strategy, led teams, developed talent, and navigated the realities of corporate leadership—often while being underrepresented in the rooms where decisions were made.
That experience gives her a perspective that extends beyond any single leadership challenge. Today, she draws on both her executive experience and lived experience to help organizations build stronger advocates and braver leaders, and to help professionals navigate the unwritten realities of corporate life without losing what makes them valuable along the way.
