Meet the Team
There are 9,925 miles and eight hours of time difference between Janna Lundquist and Tiaan Terblanche. It takes intention and effort to nurture our cohesive, high-performing team. The following values guide our work with each other and with clients:
Trust. Confidentiality, of course. But beyond that – showing up as the imperfect humans we are, and supporting others to do the same.
Growth. Being curious and taking risks sounds great...but is seriously uncomfortable. It also leads to breakthroughs and progress.
Focus. Scaling requires discernment: Only a few opportunities deserve attention. Clearing away the others – the "nos" or "not nows" – is essential.
Prosperity. A rising tide lifts all boats. Entrepreneurship and nonprofit service improve lives, strengthen communities...and are ridiculously fun.
