Jan Levine

 

As an executive coach, my focus is working with individuals, team leaders, and management to discover and unlock innate and unique potential; develop awareness, resiliency, and a growth mindset; and support insight, vision, and transformation.

Coaching fosters moving beyond what is comfortable and predictable. In my practice, I work closely with clients to identify and explore behaviors or habits that are sabotaging, energy draining, and ultimately hold back success. We work together to employ and practice techniques to reduce or eliminate the impact of those sabotaging tendencies that create obstacles blocking an individual or team from moving from where they are currently, to where they want to be. 

My thirty-five years as a lawyer, advisor, team leader, and mentor, have provided in-depth experience working closely with individuals, teams, and all levels of management and corporate leadership. I began as an associate at Dechert, LLP (then Dechert, Price & Rhoads) in 1985, before becoming an equity partner, and head of its Health Care Group for a number of years. In 2007, I joined Pepper Hamilton LLP as an equity partner and served as Co-Chair of the Commercial Litigation Group. As a result of Pepper Hamilton’s merger with Troutman Sanders, I became an equity partner at the new firm - Troutman Pepper Hamilton Sanders LLP- before transitioning from the practice of law to full-time executive and leadership coaching. 

I am experienced in working on behalf of for-profit corporations and not-for-profit entities such as hospitals, healthcare systems, and trade associations.

My pro-bono work includes providing services to The Support Center for Child Advocates, The Women’s Law Project, and the AIDS Law Project. For The Support Center, I have represented children and adolescent survivors of sexual assault.  For the Women’s Law Project, I work to advance gender equality through my work as Vice Chair of the Board of Trustees. I was also appointed as Chair of the Executive Director Search Committee. Previously, I served as a Board member of the AIDS Law Project. 

I am also a graduate of Leadership, Inc., a non profit program designed to select and train civil leaders in Philadelphia, have completed the American Health Lawyers Association arbitration and advanced mediation training, and am a member of the American Law Institute.
