Experiential Leadership Development
About Jennifer
Jen has spent the last 18 years engaged in experiential leadership development. As a long-time sea captain, she spent many years entrenched in both the struggles and opportunities of leadership and performance under extreme pressure, leading her crews in challenging and occasionally life-threatening conditions aboard vessels at sea. Taking the lessons learned in some of the world’s most difficult environments, Jen works to transfer that learning into practical and clear programmatic elements that foster the development of authentic leaders.
Working across a broad range of industries, including technology, biotech and pharmaceuticals, energy, consumer products, film and education, Jen specializes in designing unique programs that cut to the core of operational problems and roadblocks. They help clients clarify and achieve their personal and professional goals in very real, often raw ways.
With Amira & Co., Jen focuses on designing experiential events and activities to enable behavioural change. They take leadership teams outside their comfort zone to deal with real-life risks.
Jen is also a licensed USCG captain, wilderness first responder, certified mindfulness trainer and yoga teacher. She is currently serving on the board of directors for Ocean Classroom.
Jen holds a BA from Hampshire College.
