About Us

Left Turn Ventures was formed in 2023 to help individuals, leaders, and teams identify and activate their unique brilliance.

Whether you are experiencing planned, unexpected, or inevitable change, we can help you navigate the complexities through bespoke learning and development solutions.

Our work also specializes in athlete transitions - helping athletes and teams move from the gym, track, field, and pool to new and exciting opportunities for growth and success. We help athletes transition from “retire” to “reinvent & re-imagine”.

We have over a decade of creating learning & development programs, workshops, coaching, and organizational HR consulting solutions by collaborating and create connection between teams, leaders, and organizations.
