About Jackie

Executive and team coaching with a point of view

Jackie Grier has spent more than twenty years in the rooms where leadership is tested. What follows is why she works the way she does — and why Courage into Clarity™ exists.

Jackie Grier, Executive Coach, Senior Leadership, Team and Board Performance Specialist

Jackie Grier

Work at the most senior levels of organisations

Jackie partners with senior leaders, executive teams and project teams in complex, high-pressure, high-stakes environments. She is known for strengthening leadership impact, decision-making, executive presence, accountability and team performance — and for staying with the work until new behaviour holds.

Jackie does not start from the idea that leaders need to become someone else. She starts from what takes over when the stakes are high — and from the possibility that it can be interrupted.

A background in humanistic psychology sits underneath that view. Jackie starts from the belief that people already have the capacity to lead well — and that what gets in the way is often unconscious, reactive and entirely human. Courage into Clarity™ grew from this: the courage to see what is really happening, and the clarity to choose a different response.

Executive Coach, Senior Leadership, Team and Board Performance Specialist

With over 20 years at the most senior levels of organisations — including Thales, HSBC, Rolls-Royce SMR, Virgin Atlantic, McDonald's and the NHS — Jackie works as an executive and team coach with leaders and boards carrying real responsibility for people, performance and change.

Beyond coaching

A speaker and facilitator

Jackie also speaks and facilitates for leadership conferences, offsites and organisations in change. What she brings to a stage is the same work she does in coaching: helping people see their patterns, and leave able to behave differently.

What clients say about working with Jackie

I've worked with Jackie as both the member of a Senior Leadership Team and an individual leader. Jackie lives and breathes her philosophy, which has had an enormous impact on me in my home and work life. She cares passionately about people being given the opportunity to overcome the barriers to living more consistently in a growth mindset and takes huge pride in her clients' development. She is eloquent and clear in helping her clients to deconstruct the ways to grow your emotional intelligence competencies, empathetic about the real-world hiccups that happen along the way and resolute in providing the right balance of support and challenge.
CEO and Chief Transformation Leader
I have worked with Jackie now on several projects and been blessed to have her as my personal coach for the last year. Jackie is an absolute master in her field and a hugely powerful coach; she brings with her a unique energy that not only motivates but calms. I have seen her use this to great effect in workshops and I have felt the power of this personally in my coaching relationship with her. Jackie will always be on my list of preferred people to work with, as it is always a pleasure.
Head of Leadership and Learning, Nuclear Industry
