Carly Jenner
Helps fast-growing teams hold together through the messy middle, from scaling people and culture.
Carly Jenner is the person organisations bring in for the messy middle, the stage where growth has outrun the systems, the leadership capacity, and the cultural glue that held the early company together.
Steering companies through that stage has been her work for close to two decades. A global people and culture executive and accredited leadership coach, she has run people and culture functions across Europe, Asia Pacific, and the Americas, in high-growth, mission-driven, and venture-backed companies. She redesigns organisations, builds leadership capability, and works on how executive teams decide and hold each other to account, pairing commercial discipline with a real grasp of what moves people. She is accredited through Henley Executive Coaching, Hogan, emotional-intelligence and Myers-Briggs instruments, and the Jacqueline Hurst methodology, and she co-authors the practice's research. She coaches in technology, biotech, scale-ups, private-equity-backed companies, and global matrix organisations, and writes and speaks on the future of work.
What Carly helps with
Carly works with chief executives, founders, and the human-resources leaders beside them. Her work in organisational design helps a fast-growing company survive its own growth, by rebuilding the structures and operating model before they buckle. Her coaching helps an executive team work as one, by strengthening how it decides and holds itself to account. And her work where behavioural science meets AI helps a company make better calls about its people, by grounding talent decisions in evidence rather than instinct.
