Jan Boase didn’t necessarily intend to end up with an HR
career, but after seizing an opportunity and proving her capabilities
more than 30 years ago, she hasn’t looked back.
For decades, Boase dedicated herself to corporate HR functions,
including working her way up to senior vice president, HR at
Liberty International Underwriters.
Having enjoyed such a successful career, Boase decided to leave
the corporate world behind in 2016 and instead focus on her interests,
leading to the launch her own coaching and consulting practice,
“Swim Out.” She now consults with clients in numerous industries,
offering her proven services to individuals, teams and organizations,
empowering them to overcome obstacles in achieving their personal
and business goals.
HR Professional caught up with Boase to discuss her HR
career, and her experience transitioning from corporate HR to her
