About Janice Sutherland

Because experience shouldn't walk out of the door.

I’m Janice Sutherland - Executive Coach, Corporate Advisor, and Speaker - dedicated to helping organizations and professionals navigate the realities of midlife career and leadership transitions. With over 25 years in senior leadership across the UK and Caribbean, including my groundbreaking role as the first female CEO in the Telecoms Sector in Antigua and Barbuda, I understand the complexities of leading through change.

Today, my work sits at the intersection of business strategy and human experience. I partner with organizations to:

  • Strengthen leadership pipelines

  • Build multigenerational workplace strategies

  • Support pre-retirement and second-act career planning

  • Maximize the impact of midlife employees

I also coach executives navigating pivotal transitions, whether that’s redefining leadership identity, preparing for new roles, or building influence in shifting corporate landscapes.

My journey from boardroom leader to executive coach means I don’t just share theory, I bring practical strategies grounded in lived experience. This perspective fuels my keynote speaking, corporate programs, and advisory work.

Alongside my organizational focus, I’m the author of the best-selling This Woman Can: The No Bullsht Guide for Women Who Lead* and host of the award-winning This Woman Can podcast, where I spotlight voices and stories of professional transformation.

My mission is simple: to ensure talent, expertise, and hard-won experience are not lost, but leveraged for individuals, for businesses, and for the future of work.
