Jacquelyn Clayborn

Advisory

Executive counsel for consequential decisions.

Leaders engage Jacquelyn when the decision in front of them is too important to work through alone — and too complex for generic advice. Four pathways, one standard of judgment.

When Leaders Call

The vision is clear; the sequence is not.

Growth has outpaced the operating model.

Every consequential decision still routes through one person.

The next chapter requires relationships that do not exist yet.

Engagement Pathways

Four ways to work together.

01

Executive Strategy Session

$750

One consequential decision. Focused executive counsel and a clear direction forward.

02

Executive Strategy Intensive

$1,500

A deeper working session for a significant challenge, opportunity or strategic priority.

03

Strategic Project Engagement

Starting at $12,500

Defined strategic work requiring analysis, recommendations and an implementation path.

04

Executive Advisory Partnership

Starting at $5,000/month

Ongoing executive counsel for leaders who need continuity, perspective and decision support.

Engagements begin with the inquiry questionnaire so the first conversation starts with substance rather than discovery.

Executive Capability

Not a list of services. A connected view of the business.

Strategy fails where capabilities are treated separately. Jacquelyn works across the whole operating picture, because the answer to one question usually lives in another part of the company.
