Janey Whiteside shared thisIt was such an honor (and a bit surreal!) to be recognized by Rokt alongside such an inspiring group of leaders, including my wonderful Partner and Vice Chair of Consello, Mindy Grossman, on the Nasdaq Tower in Times Square. Leadership takes many forms. Sometimes it’s visible on the biggest stages, and other times it happens quietly in the background, through the ideas we champion and the solutions we deliver. To me, leadership has never been about volume – it’s about impact. It’s about inspiring progress when the path isn’t obvious and bringing people together to create something better than any one of us could do alone. Congratulations to all the leaders celebrated, who are shaping the future with creativity and conviction.

Janey Whiteside shared thisToday marks another important milestone for Consello. Consello, in partnership with David Beckham and Gary Neville, Consello Partner and Chairman of Consello Sports in the UK, announced that it has led the acquisition of Salford City FC (SCFC) in the UK. The acquisition has been enabled by the creation of a new and unique membership group made up of individuals from the highest levels of both business and sport, allowing SCFC to leverage a wide range of expertise to elevate different aspects of the Club. As part of this new chapter, Consello will take on a pivotal commercial role for SCFC. These efforts will lay the foundation for a sustainable, thriving future for the Club and I’m delighted to lead this initiative and craft a forward-thinking strategy that capitalizes on the evolving landscape of sports commercialization.

Janey Whiteside shared thisIn the battle for consumer attention and loyalty, brands can’t afford to lose focus. Every interaction should feel as exciting as a first impression and as personal as if it was delivered by someone who deeply knows them. When consumers reward this effort by engaging, brands must build a seamless path toward instant gratification, with simple purchase paths and expedited delivery options. On the TD Securities podcast with the brilliant Oliver Chen, CFA, my The Consello Group partner Mindy Grossman and I underscore the critical need for retail strategies that deliver tangible value to consumers, but also make them feel valued throughout the entire buying journey.

Janey Whiteside liked thisJaney Whiteside liked thisLoved my time in Atlanta with May Mobility's CEO Edwin Olson experiencing first-hand their approach to autonomy. Took some rides in our tricked-out Toyota Siennas; talked about the evolution of AVs and more. There’s going to be room for many players and approaches in this space. That’s good for riders, good for cities, and good for innovation. Our job at Lyft is to partner with them and create the best AV/driver-driven hybrid network for all

Janey Whiteside liked thisJaney Whiteside liked this“For a long time, women’s sports weren’t even considered good business.” And now — that’s changed. In part two of my #InPartnershipWith conversation with Keia Clarke, CEO of the NY LIBERTY, we talked about what comes next. What stood out to me is that she didn’t spend time celebrating that shift. She went straight to the harder question: what do you build from here? We got into the decisions behind the Liberty’s growth — where to invest, when to take risks, and how intentional you have to be if you want something to last. It’s easy to talk about momentum. Building something durable is different. We’ll get into the role partnerships play in that in our final segment next week. #TeamAmex https://lnkd.in/eNYiSP6Q

Janey Whiteside liked thisJaney Whiteside liked thisPayPal Beyond was a special moment for me because it gave us a chance to share, in one room, the story we've been building for some time: PayPal is evolving to help merchants solve some of their biggest challenges in new ways. What we talked about on stage was bigger than any one product or feature. It was about the opportunity to bring together reach, conversion, and loyalty in a way that helps our partners grow more effectively, as customers get more value from every interaction. That's the direction we're headed, and it's an exciting one. I'm deeply grateful to everyone across PayPal and to our partners and agencies for the creativity, speed, and collaboration that made Beyond possible. These moments don't just happen without a huge amount of work behind the scenes, and I'm proud of what we created together. Most of all, I'm energized by what this represents for the future. We have an incredible opportunity ahead of us, and Beyond was a powerful reminder of what's possible when we come together with a clear vision and execute against it.

We’re proud of the legacy that brought us here, and even more excited about what’s ahead.

Janey Whiteside liked thisJaney Whiteside liked thisTwo peas in a pod — but make it fashion ✨ There’s something powerful about two brands with a shared ethos coming together, and our collaboration with STAUD is exactly that. Grounded in a mutual appreciation for timeless style, modern travel, and designing for how people experience the world today. To celebrate the Amex Gold Card’s 60th anniversary, we launched our first-ever resort wear collection with STAUD, and it was unmistakably Gold. Effortless, elevated, and designed for the way our Members travel. More than just a collection, this partnership signals where Gold is headed — rooted in heritage, yet evolving, showing up in culture, and creating meaningful connections with our Members. Every detail was considered. Every piece intentional. You can feel the creativity and care in the final designs, created for every moment - from getaways to dinners and everything in between. Proud to have worked alongside #TeamAmex Ruby Samim Allie Harokopus Elizabeth Crosta Devi Kinkhabwala Rosen and our exceptional partners at STAUD to bring this vision to life.

Janey Whiteside liked thisJaney Whiteside liked thisI am so excited to share that following my graduation from Syracuse University this May, I will be continuing my education at the Columbia School of Social Work where I will be pursuing my Master of Science in Social Work. My time at Syracuse has been incredibly meaningful and has shaped both my academic interests and my passion for policy work within the child welfare space. I am so grateful for the professors, mentors, and peers who have supported and challenged me along the way. I am especially thankful to those who have guided me through my experiences in research, advocacy, and fieldwork. Your support has played a huge role in getting me to this next step. I am looking forward to continuing to grow, learn, and work toward creating more equitable systems for children and families. Thank you to everyone who has been part of this journey. This is just the beginning!
