Certified Professional Career Coach (CPCC)
Jessica Visek
Executive Career Strategist for Mid-to Senior Leaders
I partner with mid-to-senior executives at inflection points—guiding you from uncertainty to strategic action through clarity, confidence, and purposeful career transformation.
My clients are professionals at inflection points: navigating career pivots, building entrepreneurial ventures, positioning for board roles, or redefining their professional identity after decades in one sector.
This isn't about fixing a resume or landing any job. It's about clarity first, strategy second, and confidence as the outcome. It's about building a career that aligns with who you are now and where you actually want to go.
Over the past 7+ years, I've guided executives through complex career transformations—some client relationships spanning multiple years as they navigate pivots from federal leadership to board appointments, corporate roles to entrepreneurial ventures, feeling typecast to owning their narrative. These aren't quick fixes. They're transformations.
Let’s make it happen for you!

Jessica Visek
I partner with mid-to-senior executives through career transformations that span months and years—not transactional resume fixes.
My clients are at inflection points: navigating career pivots, building entrepreneurial ventures, positioning for board roles, or redefining their professional identity after decades in one sector.
What makes this different:
I don't start with your resume. I start with the harder questions: Where are you now? What no longer fits? What are you actually building toward?
My approach:
Clarity → Strategy → Confidence
First, we uncover what you want your next chapter to look like. Then, we build the strategy and positioning to get there. Confidence emerges from both.
What you get:
Strategic partnership through multiple career chapters. Deep-dive discovery that goes beyond surface tactics. Executive positioning that reflects your unique value. Ongoing counsel through complex decisions and unexpected pivots.
This isn't quick-fix coaching. It's an investment in multi-year strategic partnership where I understand your full context and help you navigate your trajectory with clarity and intention.
Once a client, always a client. You don't outgrow this relationship—you evolve with it.

As a Certified Master Job Search Coach (MJSC) and Certified Professional Career Coach (CPCC), I use discovery-driven frameworks that prioritize understanding before tactics.
I partner with mid-to-senior executives through career transformations that require more than surface solutions. We start with the harder questions: Where are you now? What fits, and what no longer serves you? What are you building toward?
From there, we build strategy, positioning, and messaging that align with your trajectory—not just your next role.
This is strategic partnership, not transactional coaching.
Strategic Career Navigation & Opportunity Assessment
Before we outline tactics, we create clarity. Together, we'll uncover what you're actually building toward—not just a job title, but a career trajectory that aligns with your values, strengths, and where you want to be in 3-5 years.
From this foundation, we develop a targeted strategy to navigate your next move effectively. We'll identify organizations, boards, entrepreneurial ventures, or consulting opportunities that match your goals, then create a strategic approach to position yourself for the right conversations.
This isn't about applying everywhere or chasing every opportunity—it's about pursuing strategic moves with intention and clarity about what actually fits.
Executive Positioning & Strategic Narrative
Your executive positioning isn't something we invent—it's something we uncover and strategically articulate. Through discovery-driven conversations, we'll identify what makes you distinctively valuable: your unique expertise, the specific impact you create, and the trajectory you're building.
Then we translate that clarity into strategic positioning: executive resume, LinkedIn presence, and authentic narrative that communicates your value to decision-makers, boards, strategic partners, and organizations seeking senior leadership.
This isn't about creating a persona. It's about owning your story and positioning yourself so the right opportunities recognize your value—whether that's board appointments, executive roles, consulting engagements, or thought leadership platforms.
