He Left a 20-Year Career to Build This... The Self-Awareness Secret Great Leaders Share . Jan Skroud

Did you know that 95% of professionals believe they are self-aware, but only 10 to 15% actually are? That gap is costly, and sitting at the heart of disengagement, poor leadership, and unfulfilled potential in workplaces around the world. In this episode of Coffee with Kofi, I sit down with Jan Skroud, Award-winning Founder of iNOMEE and a true pioneer in the world of Learning & Development, for a conversation that is truly inspiring. Jan's journey is a remarkable one. After more than two decades leading high-performing teams across the global hospitality industry, he made a courageous pivot, leaving behind a successful corporate career to build something that addresses one of leadership's most overlooked challenges: the self-awareness gap. Together we explore: * Why self-awareness is the missing ingredient in most leadership development programmes, AND what it actually takes to close the gap for good * How iNOMEE goes beyond the "do and delete" assessment culture to create lasting, accountable change that remains long after the training room empties * What great leadership really means and how understanding your impact on others is the foundation of every high-performing team * The practical career advice Jan wishes more people would hear: how a simple "no-constraints" analysis of your ideal role can cut through the fog of dissatisfaction and give you a clear roadmap forward * The power of DiSC as a tool for building genuine self-knowledge and why leaning into the unknown is where real growth begins Whether you're a seasoned leader, an aspiring entrepreneur, or someone quietly wondering if there's a better version of your professional life waiting for you, this episode will leave you with both the mindset shift and the practical tools to take your next step.
