What others say
Words from people who know.
People who have worked with me, learned from me or met my writing share their own experience.
Jan Stefors is a rare figure in the construction industry. When we started in 2019, we were a team of 12; under his guidance and steady support, we grew to 90 people within three years. His mentorship was father-like in its sincerity and trust. To work with Jan is to work with someone who truly cares about the success of his partners.
His book Leadership with Heart and Courage is one of the most valuable leadership books I have read. It is a practical handbook for anyone who seriously wants to reflect on and develop their leadership. Jan is one of the strongest and most compelling voices in this movement.
Jan writes about leadership without filter. And he lives what he teaches. His texts have served as a north star: clarity when language gets murky, backbone when pressure rises. He combines empathy with consequence. He challenges without flattery.
There is only one Jan Stefors. He has the ability to truly see people. He is an enthusiastic person who genuinely wants the best for others. If Jan promises to handle something, you can be certain he will, whatever it takes.
Jan has been a mentor to me in leadership, entrepreneurship and personal development. He has long been someone I can think out loud with, both professionally and personally.
Janne is direct and honest. That is something sorely lacking in today's world. He has personally helped me with knowledge and insights that made my own path easier.
