Unlocking human brilliance
The Philosophy
I provide professional Coaching for leaders, founders and professionals who want to think more clearly and lead with intent.
I’ve found that a lack of ability doesn’t cause most leadership challenges, but having too much responsibility and too many decisions to make, combined with too little space to think.
Stepping up into leadership roles often happens alongside raising a family.
Decisions multiply, daily pressure increases, and thinking becomes less clear and more reactive.
You’re still capable, but it can become harder to see your options clearly and make intentional choices.
Gain clarity on your direction.
Lead with purpose and confidence.
Build a life you’re proud of, at work and at home.
About you
My coaching is for people who:
Refuse to play small.
Welcome discomfort.
See obstacles as opportunities.
Want to make an impact in their community and in the world.
Don’t just talk about doing the thing, but actually do the thing.
Take their work seriously, but don’t take themselves too seriously.
If this sounds like you, then you’re exactly who I want to work with.
I’ve worked with a wide range of professionals at different stages of their careers and facing different problems.
Examples include:
A tech start-up Founder who wanted to build something meaningful and avoid burnout.
A Director developing a development plan to build on feedback.
A functional leader who wanted clarity on where to take their careers next.
A Business owner with lots of ideas who needed to understand their priorities.
Managers and Senior Managers who were having conflicts at work.
A subject matter expert planning for retirement.
A young professional stepping into a new challenge who was seeking clarity, confidence and direction.
If any of these sound like you, or you have other challenges, contact me now to arrange a free, no-obligations discovery call:
I’m Jake Burt — an international leadership coach with 15 years of experience leading high-performing teams in high-pressure industries.
My career began in engineering, where I progressed into leadership and project management roles, running company-critical, cross-functional projects. What I began to notice was that what motivated me wasn’t the technical side, but developing people: guiding careers, mentoring future leaders and helping individuals achieve promotions and new opportunities.
That’s when I realised my real passion — unlocking human brilliance.
Today, I’m a trained coach who works with leaders and high performers worldwide.
I have had the opportunity to have coaching partnerships with people in the UK, Europe, Africa and North America,
My mission is to help high agency people live better lives so that they can build a better world.
Outside of coaching, I train in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (blue belt), practice meditation and breathwork, and most importantly, enjoy time with my wife and young son. These aspects of my life all revolve around being present, being disciplined and most importantly, having fun; all of which I hope are reflected in my coaching.
