Hello, I’m Julie Kay
After a 21-year career in the Royal Navy I formed JK Leadership Development in 1998, and I’ve been loving every minute ever since.
I get to work with leaders who want to make a difference, deliver beyond expectations and have a strong commitment to their own learning and growth.
A key driver of mine is to support as many people as possible to live fulfilling working lives. Supporting leaders to make that happen for themselves, their teams and their stakeholders is how I contribute, and it’s a real pleasure.


Julie has provided my organisation and me with excellent support in the areas of coaching and leadership development. Her approach and methods have been a major factor in developing managers to develop others and helping the introduction of an operating system to be a success. I can confidently recommend Julie Kay as a credible and reliable supplier, and an expert in her field.

Our company realised quite soon, after the first month cooperation with Julie, the huge impact that coaching could have on manufacturing business. A confident coach, full of optimism, was crucial for us especially at the beginning of launching the new way of working. We managed to change a lot in short period of time due to the support of a strong but still gentle coach expert.

The coaching that I have received from Julie Kay has literally transformed me into a different person. I cannot believe the difference in only 3 months of work with my coach and feel calmer, less stressed and now have a work/life balance which I am thoroughly enjoying. As a coach Julie is very supportive and understanding but she is also not afraid to ask difficult questions.

“Prior to starting coaching, I knew of two issues that were hampering my capabilities and comfort as a leader – pro-actively and rapidly engaging in difficult conversations as and when they were needed, and adequately segregating my work and personal life, resulting in me taking work-stress home with me.
Honestly, I was a little skeptical of coaching when we first started, however Julie has helped me tackle both of these areas of concern, and along the way has helped me identify and start resolving some other, lesser known (even to myself) hang-ups that have been impacting me and my leadership approach.
Julie is supportive, a very talented listener, positively challenging, thought-provoking and encouraging, and it’s been incredible to experience how quickly Julie’s coaching process has made me a more effective leader, and a more confident individual.”
