Janet Sernack – Innovation Strategist, Consultant and Coach

As an innovation strategist, consultant, executive and innovation coach, I love to explore and empower others to discover, design, and deliver creative ideas and inventive and innovative solutions. I have come the full circle from graphic and fashion designer, retail marketing executive, and design management consultant to become a corporate trainer, facilitator, and now a start-up entrepreneur as the CEO of ImagineNation. I use my collaborative, creative, and critical thinking skills to co-create design and deliver customised change and blended deep learning solutions in innovation culture, leadership, teaming, and coaching.

I help businesses set, align and achieve their innovation goals by challenging them to be, think, and act differently to co-create a world where people matter and innovation is the norm. I enable people to be the best they can be, so they develop emotional and thinking agility to adapt, flow, collaborate, co-create in ways that make the world a better place, where the bottom line includes people, profit and planet.

I am the imaginative, creative, possibility, and associational thinker on the team, where I emerge, converge and diverge patterns, trends, and the latest thinking in innovation, with start-up, design thinking, and emergent methodologies with neuroscience principles. To provide clients with both the concrete and the abstract foundations for developing a paradox lens and elastic thinking in our innovation education learning programs. As an innovation strategist, consultant, and coach, I help people, teams, and organisations integrate these, through consulting, coaching, facilitation, and deep leadership learning and training.

Along with my partner, I am an avid reader, bookhead, and Netflix series binger who also loves going to hit the big screen regularly at the movies. I am a seasoned meditator and global adventurer who occasionally feeds my India and Bollywood habits by heading off to Rajasthan to silently immerse myself in learning, retreat, and reflection. I love walking and playing on the beach, with my 2 small, very naughty, fun-loving joyful dogs.
