Janine Garner

I am obsessed with unleashing the brilliance in individuals, teams and companies. As a connection expert at the organisational level (collaboration), interpersonal level (networking) and intrapersonal level (energy and intent), my whole world revolves around helping others reclaim and reignite their influence.

A highly sought-after keynote speaker, educator and author, I work with high profile global leaders, and helps many of Australia’s top 50 ASX companies and multinationals — EY, CBRE, DXC Technology, Hewlett Packard, Micro Focus, Optus and CBA, to name a few.

I am the best-selling author of It’s Who You Know: How a network of 12 key people can fast-track your success and From Me to We: Why commercial collaboration will future-proof business, leaders and personal success.  And my NEW BOOK  Be Brilliant: How to Live and Lead a Life of Influence is due out in July 2020.

I am the host of her own podcast, ‘Unleashing Brilliance’, featuring the untold stories of individual successes from people around the world. I hold a Bachelor of Science degree from Aston University, UK and was awarded an Honorary Doctorate of Science from the same university in 2016. As well as being a graduate of the Harvard Kennedy School in The Art and Practice of Leadership, a partner at Thought Leaders Global and I've won an International Stevie Award in recognition of my work.

I believe we need people, teams and companies to be absolutely brilliant to lead today’s complex environment into tomorrow’s unknowns. This requires collaboration, transformation and leverage and it demands better conversations, training and connection.
