Spotlight on Our Coaches: Jan McKenzie

By Joey Asher

Category: Other

Before joining Speechworks as a coach, Jan was a Speechworks client (or, as she puts it, “a raving fan!”).

She spent nearly 20 years at The Weather Channel. For 10 of those years, she served as director of their award-winning Learning and Development Department. During her tenure, she implemented training programs to develop sales leaders, executives, and even company-wide change initiatives.

Along the way, Jan witnessed first-hand the impact that excellent communication coaching had on individuals. She was inspired by this experience, and wanted to apply her training background to help others become great communicators too.

In addition to being a phenomenal coach, Jan is also an experienced public speaker and published author. She has written books that were endorsed by leadership experts Stephen M. R. Covey and Dr. Ken Blanchard.
