Hello! I'm Jane Van de Ban

​

I’m an experienced content specialist and negotiator, specialising in stakeholder management and engagement.

​

Over 25 years in the UK public sector (University of London and Government Digital Service), I moved from hands-on content editing and design into strategic leadership, where I led on big projects, while supporting and empowering my teams. For 20 of those years, I was also a senior union activist and lead negotiator on important changes like restructuring, redundancies, pay, terms and conditions. My ability to negotiate well literally changed people’s lives.

 

In 2023, I decided to stop working for others and start working for myself, so that I could focus on the things I care about. I am passionate about content design and passionate about people. I aim to teach and support content designers to develop the skills they need to deliver content that is truly user-centred, while balancing institutional needs.

What I do

1

Stakeholder management training

With this course, I aim to teach content designers how they can master the strategy and tactics they need to manage stakeholders well and take the stress out of stakeholder management.

2

Stakeholder surgeries

Taking existing scenarios, I work directly with content designers to understand the challenges and come up with effective strategies and tactics they can use to navigate their stakeholder challenges.

1:1 coaching for content leaders

It can be hard to be a content lead. Nobody tells you how to do it, let alone how to do it well. As a professional coach, I will work with you to help you become the lead you were always meant to be.
