Mary Jeanne (MJ) Cabanel

Bridging Psychological Depth and Commercial Reality

Journey

For over 25 years, MJ Cabanel has worked at the critical intersection of mindset and the bottom line. From Paris boardrooms to Sydney retreats, she helps senior teams navigate the "invisible" dynamics—power, trust, and identity—that dictate performance under pressure. A dual French-American citizen working in English and French, MJ brings an unparalleled global perspective, having coached leaders from over 100 nationalities across the tech, finance, and luxury sectors. With an INSEAD Master’s in Organizational Psychology and an MBA, MJ combines systemic depth with sharp business acumen. As a "Front of the Room" leader for CTI, she has trained over 1,000 executives, acting as a "relationship conductor" who creates the safety necessary for teams to have the difficult, honest conversations they’ve been avoiding. The result? Mindset shifts that move beyond theory to create tangible strategic growth and collective business impact.
