Janice Elsley
Janice Elsley is redefining what leadership looks like in the modern world. A globally recognised leadership and change expert, Janice blends neuroscience, human-centred leadership, wellbeing, and future-ready strategy to help leaders thrive in an era of complexity, disruption, and rapid change.

As Founder and CEO of Harissa Business Partners, she has spent more than two decades advising CEOs, executives, and organisations across Australia and internationally to transform workplace cultures, elevate leadership capability, and unlock human potential. Her work challenges outdated command-and-control models, replacing them with science-backed, emotionally intelligent approaches that drive performance, retention, and sustainable success.

Janice is one of the first 30 people globally to complete postgraduate studies in the Neuroscience of Leadership and is also a qualified Human Design coach. This rare integration of brain science and deep self-awareness enables leaders to make clearer decisions, lead with authenticity, and build high-performing, psychologically safe teams without burnout.

Janice is known for translating complex science into practical, human strategies leaders can apply immediately. Her programs and experiences, including Leading Edge Women™, The Aligned Edge™, The Inner Circle and immersive leadership and wellness retreats, have impacted thousands of leaders worldwide.

Her mission is simple and powerful: to create a world of better leaders by transforming how people lead themselves first, and helping them build legacies that extend far beyond titles, roles, or organisations.
