Helping teams communicate with more trust, clarity, and collaboration.
Leadership & Communication Workshops + Coaching
Great communication isn’t about performance — it’s about connection.
If you want a culture where people feel understood and bring their best thinking forward, this is where it starts.
My workshops help leaders build the trust, presence, and clarity that turn meetings into momentum and conversations into collaboration. Through practical, human-centered tools, teams learn how to listen, respond, and work together without the constant friction.
Why I'm the partner for that
I’m Jackie Brown — a creative director turned communication coach.
For 25+ years I’ve helped leaders in creative and financial industries capture attention and earn trust. I’ve built smart, thoughtful, productive teams with creatives, SMEs, and VPs.
Over and over, I saw how connecting as humans creates collaborations which unleash innovative ideas and powerful results.
In a world which wants communication to be a performance, using it to build trust instead is the real power move.
Now I partner with thoughtful professionals and organizations so they can create leaders and teams which move forward with less friction, more trust and deep enagement.
Curious what that could look like for you?
Why I'm the partner for that
I’m Jackie Brown, a creative director-turned-communication advisor and presence partner for thoughtful, ambitious professionals.
After 20+ years helping leaders shape narratives and command attention in the creative + credit union world, I saw the same problem over and over:
Smart people were getting overlooked — not because they weren’t capable, but because their presence wasn’t landing with the influence it deserved.
Now I help rising leaders communicate with clarity, confidence, and strategic presence — so their leadership is felt, trusted, and valued.
