Supporting Leaders
at Every Level

The leader you want and need to be will change over time or in some cases, overnight.
There will emerge different points on your leadership journey where you need a guiding hand, supportive presence and sounding board. This is where our paths meet.

Where are you on your leadership journey?

New Leaders

are seeking tools, tactics, and resources. I am your Sage Guide, providing Leadership 101 to show you the fundamentals as you establish the foundation of your leadership style and approach.

Emerging Leaders

need practical frameworks and strategies, multi-level communication and decision-making tactics, support in managing others, and skills to develop your own brand, presence and influence. I am your Secret Confidante, as you navigate next level leadership, exploring challenges that address conflict, communication, strategy and more.

Executive Leaders

want a more pragmatic approach — navigating the path of unvarnished candor, collaboration and thought partnerships. I am your Trusted Advisor, guiding through chaos, crisis or calm, as you reinvent how you want to lead in your work and your life. We explore burnout, boundaries and blazing a new trail on your terms.

Find Your Highest Level of JOi

My coaching expertise is built on more than 25 years of working in the trenches, primarily across the health industry, as a corporate leader in life sciences, as a non-profit executive, and as an entrepreneur/small business founder. 

What I have learned in over a decade of coaching is that while much of the world has and continues to evolve, our issues are the same: we struggle to balance burnout with being our best selves, we are challenged in communicating effectively while speaking our truth, and we often get in our own way of achieving the results we desire while wanting to have meaningful impact in our lives and our work.

Rather than trade-off, we can trade up. Rather than give in, we can gain trust. And rather than seeing options as limited, we can convert them to springboards.

Stories of Clients

Yiming Shuang | Workforce Development Advocate

“Through Judy's coaching, I've experienced a paradigm shift in my approach to leadership and professional evolution, unlocking boundless opportunities for growth. I've shifted from self-doubt to self-assurance, thanks to her guidance in uncovering my inner strengths and values. Her reminder that 'what got me here won't get me there' has been pivotal, and her coaching framework, especially the accelerator module, has equipped me with a personalized toolkit to tackle career challenges with confidence. Judy's support has not only helped me grow as a leader but also empowered me to assist others facing similar hurdles.”

Kevin Linn, DrPH |
Public Health Expert

“Judy is extremely empowering as a coach, reminding me throughout our sessions of my values and intentions as sources of support and inspiration in decision making. It is easy to forget these when times are busy and stressful. I left each session with hours of reflection and thinking.”

Eirliani Abdul Rahman, DrPH, MSc, FRSA | Child Online Safety Advocate

“Judy Ozbun is masterful at this work. She is a careful listener and together with her business background at the executive level, it means that she has a real understanding of, empathy, and acumen regarding the leadership needs and constraints in the nonprofit world and what it means to step up as a woman, and in particular for me, as a woman of color. Furthermore, because of her own experience born and raised outside the U.S., she recognizes the nuanced cultural shifts that might need to be made for those coming from abroad and she will work closely with you for what you may need to do. I cannot recommend Judy highly enough.”

Diedre M. Wrighting, PhD | Higher Education Administrator

“My perspective and my perception of my capabilities have grown tremendously in the year and a half that I have been coaching with Judy. During our meetings, I feel supported, uplifted, and energized. The boost of clarity and confidence I gain set me up to go out and achieve my goals. I am a better leader and have made progress toward goals that I previously thought were out of my reach.”
