Jane McCooey thrives when she’s bringing people together to solve a problem, to the benefit of all.
When Jane, from County Armagh in Ireland, is confronted with obstacles, she’s not afraid to reach out for help, and her first port of call is often to tap into the familiar power of sisterhood.
Before you know it, she’s fallen in with a band of sisters. She’s done this repeatedly–sports being a prime example–and more recently in the world of work.
Why there, you ask?
Because, you could say, men and women are separated by a common workplace, and maybe that needs to be looked at.
Along this most ancient of human fault lines, Jane has gotten into her stride tackling the seemingly inherent assumptions in the division of labor between men and women. And one aspect of work is leadership, which of late often begs the question: “who gets to lead?”
And the answer, too often, is “not a woman.”
So last year, 2022, Jane, an attorney by profession, founded a vibrant group named Women With Ambition.
When Jane seeks to create positive change, she does it from within. Her initial goal for Women With Ambition is to nurture positive change from within women themselves. And Women With Ambition seeks to create changes in men too, also from within, by fostering open conversation and recruiting allies.
Jane is a uniter, not a divider.
