JANE for the English-speaking world

For English speakers who want to discover their unique calling and function — using a method developed over two decades in Dutch churches and businesses.

JANE is een methodiek die in Nederland al meer dan twintig jaar wordt ingezet bij honderden mensen — in gemeentes, bij voorgangers, in MKB en bij teams. De Engelstalige variant is in opbouw: vertaalde 27 Jane-functies en de drie-stappen-workshop zijn beschikbaar, ondersteund door directe Engelstalige coaching.

Herken je dit?

  • You're an English speaker (expat, international, or non-Dutch) curious about your unique calling.
  • You've taken personality tests but feel they only describe you, not direct you.
  • You want a method with depth and history — not a marketing-driven framework.
  • You're open to a coach speaking English directly, with Dutch-rooted methodology.

Wat Jane® voor jou doet

27 functions, translated and culture-sensitive

The 27 Jane functions are translated to English, with cultural sensitivity to spiritual and secular contexts.

Three-step workshop in English

The methodologically core workshop — Who am I not, Who am I, What's stopping me — delivered in English.

One-on-one coaching, in English

Coaching sessions in clear English — for individuals, leaders, or sales professionals.

Optional: spiritual layer or business framing

JANE works both as a spiritual instrument (gifts, fivefold ministry) and as a professional one (leadership, sales, career) — chosen at intake.

  • You're in an acute personal crisis — different support is needed first.

De methode achter dit traject

JANE is a methodology developed over more than two decades by Dirk van der Schaaf, applied to hundreds of clients in Dutch churches and businesses. The English translation of the core 27 functions and the three-step methodology has been completed; international rollout is in selective onboarding phase.

Veelgestelde vragen

Is this a Christian or secular method?

Both. JANE has a spiritual root (gifts, fivefold ministry) and a professional application (leadership, sales, career). At intake you choose which layer is prominent for your trajectory.

How does this compare to MBTI, Enneagram, or CliftonStrengths?

JANE is methodologically deeper (27 functions, not 4–16 types) and includes explicit attention to blind spots and compensation behavior — typically not present in personality assessments.

Can sessions be online?

Yes, for individual trajectories online is the standard for international clients. Team trajectories ideally include at least one in-person day.

What's the cost?

Pricing is per trajectory and aligned with international standards for executive coaching. Request a quote at the discovery call.
