Janet Kiwanuka

Janet Kiwanuka turns founder chaos into a scalable company that can run without the hero at the center. At Unconscious Brilliance, she works with growing service businesses that are pushing past 50 people and feeling the strain of decisions bottlenecked at the top, work trapped in the founder’s head, and days hijacked by urgent fires. While most teams confuse busyness with progress, she zeroes in on the brutal truth: if the founder cannot step back, the business cannot step up.

Her first move is always the same: strip away the noise and see how work really flows. Janet listens hard, maps reality against the vision, spots the patterns nobody else catches, and exposes the hidden dependencies that keep the founder stuck in operations. Where many consultants hand over slide decks and theory, she builds practical delegation paths, clear decision rights, and repeatable systems that people can actually use under pressure. The result is a business that stops revolving around one person and starts moving as a coordinated, accountable operation.

In high pressure moments, Janet is the person in the room who keeps everyone grounded on what must change now and what can be cut. She operates with blunt clarity, calm focus, and zero drama, turning big, vague goals into concrete moves that teams can execute this week. Leaders walk away with more control, more time to think, and a company that keeps working whether they are in the office or not. She helps founders earn something most never get back once they start growing: real freedom of choice.
