Jane Tyson

I have always been drawn to people. How they think, what sparks their curiosity, the ideas that make their eyes light up. Over the years this curiosity has grown into a vocation. I have become someone who gathers people, connects them, helps them see what they might not yet see in themselves and builds communities around the things that matter.

My work weaves together communication, collaboration and creativity. I spend my days helping individuals and teams who want to make the world a little better. Sometimes that means linking them to the right people. Sometimes it means helping them shape their message so it lands with clarity and warmth. Often it means holding a space where conversations can lead somewhere new.

I live in Guildford, Surrey with my husband Paul, a journalist and fellow wildlife gardener and allotment grower. Our two teenagers keep life lively, honest and full of unexpected observations.

My world is stitched together by many passions. Storytelling. Long walks where ideas untangle themselves. Teaching yoga and mindfulness to children. Exploring personal development, entrepreneurship, innovation, spirituality and systems thinking. I am happiest when learning something new or helping others do the same.

Community is at the heart of everything I do. You might find me hosting Random Dialogues, leading Business Buzz Surrey, running Canva workshops or championing Guildford in my role as Deputy Mayor. Each of these spaces is, in its own way, a chance for people to meet, create, play, imagine and try things they may not have tried alone.

With a BA Hons 2.1 in Psychology and Education and a PGCE, I have spent a lifetime fascinated by human potential. What helps people thrive. What gives them courage. What unlocks the next small step. I use a blend of coaching tools and techniques, and I particularly enjoy teaching goal mapping to help people gain clarity and align with what they truly want to do and be.

I also weave Professor Rama’s LIFESmart Learning PhD Toolkit into my work, bringing a rich mix of insight and practical wisdom to those who want to grow their confidence, creativity and contribution.

This is the work that lights me up. Helping people and communities imagine what is possible, then supporting them as they bring it to life.
