Meet Jakob Franzen
Clarity under pressure. Presence without performance. Coaching that holds its own in any room.
With three decades of experience across biotech, software, healthcare, manufacturing, and nonprofit, I’ve led from the inside—P&L ownership, executive teams, and business pivots that didn’t come with do-overs. I’ve been in the room when reputations, roles, and results were on the line.
Today, I bring that same high-stakes operating experience into the coaching room. I’m not here to optimize your calendar or swap mindset hacks. I help you close decisions that can’t stay open, confront what’s been deferred, and move with precision when pressure is high.
As a Master Certified Coach (MCC), I work with leaders—and the teams they’re responsible for—at inflection points:
• Navigating succession, restructuring, or reinvention
• Regaining alignment when momentum has stalled
• Making calls where performance and human consequence intersect
I bring business acumen, emotional fluency, and a simple north star:
Decide clearly. Lead honestly. Move like it matters.
Whether I’m working 1:1 or with a senior team, the outcome is the same: clarity that leads to movement—and holds under scrutiny.
If that’s the kind of coaching you need, I’m in.
