Jane Riley

One of the reasons behind setting up Independent Thinking Ltd back in 1993 was to take the very best of the business training enjoyed by high-flying executives and make it available to people who really needed it – children in schools.

Which is why we are so pleased to count Jane Riley as one of our Associates.

For over 18 years Jane has worked with one of the leading gurus of personal development and achievement, Stephen Covey, author of the HUGELY popular The Seven Habits books and programmes. In that time she has worked with many, many companies and individuals to help them develop the necessary thinking and approaches to be a little bit closer to all they could be.  And with great results.

Apart from her success in the world of business, Jane is also developing a growing reputation for making these powerful approaches to building confidence, self-esteem, leadership, team building and communication relevant and practical in schools, working with young people of all abilities and ages as well as their teachers.

What’s more she is, as you would expect from Independent Thinking, an inspirational speaker as well as an inspiration herself with a career that takes in professional dancing, working as a credit analyst for American Express, running her own company, being a Master Practitioner in NLP, a qualified reflexologist, a colour analyst and image consultant, appearing on Radio 4’s Woman’s Hour, being a guest commentator on Channel 4’s Big Brother’s Little Brother and riding a large motorbike.

Feedback from school staff who have benefitted from Jane's input include:

• Great Speaker made good sense – how to go for it personally and professionally!
• Dynamic – gave food for thought
• Made me think about how others perceive me and how to influence it
• Wow! Simple and effective
• An excellent session – how do I get onto the full programme?
• Excellent – lots to take back to school
• Very thought provoking – could do with hearing more
• Fab – a great end to the day – made me think
• Motivating and entertaining

So, why not book Jane for an Event with your staff, students, parents or governors (Jane delivers Events for secondary and further education).

People who have benefited from Jane have also enjoyed David Hodgson.
