The Human Story Behind the Business & Brand - Jess Mitchell

My next guest for this podcast series is Jess Mitchell. She’s the founder and owner of the Jess K Mitchell practice that provides coaching, workshopping and public speaking services in line with her own self-developed learning and development framework. Her practice is focused on inspiring teams and businesses to shift from individual or siloed environments to more connected and collaborative settings. Underpinned by Jess’s mantra of being bold and staying curious, to shift the dial on how businesses and employees function or operate.Jess has an expansive career background that includes many years in sales and business development leadership roles. This includes for the well-known global brand Thermomix. Taking on several high-pressured roles that included as the National Sales Manager for both Australia and New Zealand where she upscaled the salesforce from 32 to 700 consultants. Prior to working in the bright-lights sales sector, Jess was a kindergarten teacher for several years. Where she no doubt attained another advantageous set of skills founded on patience, resilience and adaptability. Not to mention communications tailored for very particular audiences. And it was a relatively recent health issue that ignited Jess’s desire to set up her practise, to share her own lessons and experiences to benefit other businesses and business leaders.
