Author, thought leader, speaker at Jan Cavelle

London, United Kingdom

Jan is an entrepreneur from the UK who has a few decades of running micro and small businesses behind her. She is very familiar with all the challenges that go with that, having started one from the kitchen table as a single mother with two young children, and overcome the obstacles to go on to build that into a multi-million turnover business. Like most entrepreneurs, she has known failure and success.
She has always been passionate to encourage and support other entrepreneurs and has been involved in many campaigns with a view to that. She was chosen as one of the first 50 women to represent the UK in the European Union on one of these.
Jan has put her entrepreneurial experiences together with her passion for writing together a book aimed at helping entrepreneurs to grow their businesses during the big leap of 1-10m. The book is called Scale For Success and it is published by Bloomsbury.

Ideation: Simple But Proven In Design Thinking
Jan Cavelle
September 05, 2022
Writers can afford to be more of the back of a beer mat school of ideation, a quick scribble of a nugget that strikes when driving or in the bath. We then go and shut ourselves away and start to test it out, develop it straight onto paper. The leap from idea to functioning company is a little larger.

May 06, 2022
Gavin had a natural aptitude for maths and physics at school, so a BEng at the University of Adelaide and a safe job in engineering seemed a logical choice. By year two, he was looking for work experience courses. Gavin went along to the Australian Royal Airforce out of curiosity, had a good interview, and before he knew it, had signed up. This meant Gavin was earning good money, still living at home with his parents, and able to take some trips overseas during study breaks.
