Product & Team Leadership
It doesn’t have to be so hard.
Move from chaos to clarity with my support. I’ll coach your team through redefining the way they work – either one-on-one or in small groups – and help them cultivate new outlooks and ways of thinking.
I’ll guide collaborative small-group work sessions to define the issues and outcomes that will yield the most impact. Then, I’ll ride alongside your team in a hands-on capacity and work with them to define and activate a plan for doing things differently.
Your team will benefit from a collaborative and supported approach to build efficiency and effectiveness into their way of working so that they can focus on the work that matters most.
My Approach
With 17+ years of experience working with teams of all shapes and sizes, my perspective, and practical tools and techniques will help you operate smoothly. With me sitting shotgun, I’ll help you define a plan of attack, respond to bumps in the road, and create an approach for empowered, results-driven work.
Laying the Foundation:
I’ll help your team define and create plans to get the work done, and establish measures of success to benchmark how well the approach is working along the way. I’ll also be there to help the team get into a groove with their new routines and will work with them to refine and adapt the approach, if necessary.
An Empowered Team:
My facilitation style supports diverse perspectives and collaboration. I’ll help diffuse politics, build empathy among team members, and foster an atmosphere of cooperation and openness. Your team will move toward a greater feeling of empowerment and with deeper connection to the work ahead.
Why Me?
Past Success:
I’ve helped two companies improve team operations so that they could grow and scale more efficiently, preparing for sale. Both companies successfully exited.
Diverse Experience:
My 16+ years leading cross-functional teams at varying levels inside of very large and very small organizations has enhanced my capacity to lead through even the most challenging dynamics.
Clear is Kind:
Those who know me, know I live this value. I have an unwavering commitment to driving clarity and can facilitate a shared understanding among even the most ambiguous groups. I will get your team to a place where they know what they’re doing, why they're doing it, and have a way of working together that sets them up to succeed.

Jackie was extremely helpful in bringing our vision for a more integrated student coaching experience to life through her collaborative and strategic process. The end result has far exceeded our expectations. Students are now supported within the course by our EmpowerU coaches that help them seamlessly integrate what they just learned in the platform to their specific goals and challenges. Schools are busy and students are struggling — and this new platform is helping districts and colleges scale their support with a warm and accessible approach that drives increased wellbeing.
