Elevate Leadership

Josette Owen

Leadership coaching

I help leaders understand and embrace their strengths as well as see what is holding them back. Then together we make a plan on achieving what's most important to them.

Who I help

Suitable for: Executives, aspiring executives & senior leaders focused on increasing business performance and further unlocking their potential. Mode: One-on-One coaching or Leadership Team Coaching

The problem I solve

Mindset and Self-Awareness : Understand what's driving your decisions. Lead with intention, not reaction Leading Under Pressure : Stay clear, focused, and effective when it matters most. Unlocking Potential : Know your strengths. Own them. Bring them to every room you walk into. Conversations That Move the Dial : Say the hard things well. Watch what shifts. Energy and Focus : Know where your energy goes. Direct it toward what delivers the most. Leading Through Change : Keep your people clear, motivated, and moving, even when the path isn't. Create a feedback culture : Create openness and transparent culture, where we have meaningful and honest conversations that actually move the dial

My point of difference

I bring clarity and connection to complexity—unlocking the potential of leaders and teams in a way that’s both deeply human and commercially sharp. With 20+ years across Financial Services, Retail, and Utilities in Auckland, Sydney, and London, I understand the real-world pressures leaders face. But what I believe sets me apart is how you cut through the noise. I don't just coach for insight— I coach for action. I'm known for my calm, kind presence, my ability to ask the right questions at the right moment, and my skill in helping leaders see their own potential more clearly. I bring empathy, structure, and strategic thinking. That means my clients don’t just feel better—they lead better. The work we do doesn’t sit on a shelf. It changes how people show up, lead, and deliver results. Whether in one-on-one coaching or leadership team settings, my work creates real movement—towards healthier teams, clearer decisions, and stronger leadership.

Why I am a member

I'm two years into founding and owning my own small business. There's been so many learnings along the way, with LOTS more I know I need to learn. It's been thrilling, terrifying and exhilarating all at the same time. And sometimes isolating. I've joined NZ Businesswomen, to meet, connect and spend time with other female business owners. To seek advice, to be able to support each other and help each other to succeed. I've joined as I'd love to be part of a community that cares about each other and truly wants each other to succeed.
