Work With Jackie

Learn in your own life.
Bring the work into your organization.

My work connects the patterns beneath a response with choices and skills you can use. Individuals can explore through self-directed experiences or discuss the private programs for women and leaders; organizations can work with me in person on leadership, collaboration, and well-being.

Individual learning

Choose the setting for your question.

Build your ability to understand a situation, consider realistic options, and try a deliberate response. Choose self-directed exploration or learn about the 12-week programs for women and leaders.

Created for women who carry too much

12-Week Experience for Women

Understand what influences your choices and practice including your voice, needs, capacity, and enjoyment alongside the roles you value.

Explore the paid program with Jackie. The women’s Studio remains free for self-directed exploration.

For leaders across genders and organizations

The JS Michaels Leadership Experience

Bring a leadership issue: delegation, difficult conversations, disagreement, rescuing, second-guessing, or follow-through. Explore your response and prepare words or an action to try.

Explore the private, 12-week program with Jackie, or begin with the free introductory pathways.

The free Human Systems Assessment™ is optional for either experience. Use your results as a starting point for reflection, then choose a situation relevant to your life or leadership.

A focused conversation

The Human Systems Insight Session™

60 minutes · $197

Bring one recurring situation or a question from your Assessment report. We explore the systems that may be influencing your response and consider a practical next choice and words you can use. Taking the Assessment first is optional.

This is a standalone working session. A conversation about joining a 12-week program can be requested through its program page.

For Organizations and Teams

Understand what shapes how your people work together.

I help organizations understand the human patterns shaping leadership, collaboration, and well-being so they can build healthier, more effective workplaces.

My work draws on three decades in human resources, including executive leadership, advising leaders, and developing people across organizational levels. I work with leadership teams, managers, employees, professional associations, and community groups.

Workplace situations we can explore.

  • Capable people keep absorbing extra work while ownership and priorities remain unsettled.
  • Concerns go unspoken, then surface as friction, rework, or strained collaboration.
  • Managers postpone feedback or difficult conversations until issues grow.
  • Constant urgency leaves little room for sound judgment, recovery, or sustainable participation.

The seven systems in a workplace.

The Seven Human Systems Framework™ gives teams language for exploring identity, beliefs, protective responses, responsibility, emotional regulation, relationships, and vitality. We use those connections to consider how people lead, communicate, make decisions, and respond under pressure.

Workload, staffing, incentives, decision authority, and leader behavior belong in the discussion too. Supporting people includes examining how work is organized and what leaders can change.

Choose the format that fits your situation.

Each engagement is shaped around your audience and a defined purpose. Depending on the format and agreed scope, the work can include:

Speaking

Presentations that help leaders and employees recognize the human patterns influencing everyday decisions, working relationships, and well-being.

A practical takeaway: Shared language and practical questions to carry into the next conversation.

Workshops

Guided learning and practice using real workplace situations: speaking up, discussing capacity, sharing responsibility, and responding to tension.

A practical takeaway: A considered response, language participants can use, and one action to try.

Facilitated Conversations

Structured discussion for teams navigating unclear ownership, competing expectations, strained collaboration, or change.

A practical takeaway: Shared themes, specific agreements, and next steps with named owners.

Organizational Advisory

A focused partnership with leaders to examine recurring patterns alongside how work is assigned, decisions are made, and people are supported.

A practical takeaway: Agreed priorities and practical leadership or workplace actions to review.

What could this look like in practice?

A team repeatedly sends extra work to the same dependable person. We can notice that pattern, understand the expectations and workplace conditions influencing it, and consider a different way to assign responsibility.

Participants might practice saying, “Before I take this on, what should move or who can share it?” Leaders can examine priorities and ownership. The team can agree on a small change, then review whether it made the work more manageable.

Notice → Understand → Choose → Practice → Integrate connects the discussion to something people can use after the session.

Let’s discuss your organization.

Share your audience, the situation you want to address, and what you hope participants or leaders can do differently. Include your preferred format and timing if you have them.

Fees are set through a defined proposal covering the scope, preparation, delivery, materials, and any agreed follow-up. We agree on the work and price before an engagement begins.
