Jami Yazdani
Founder & Chief Consultant
For over 20 years, I’ve had the privilege of leading busy teams of professionals in higher education, library, association, nonprofit, and corporate settings. It was in the middle of navigating complex projects, planning initiatives, and stakeholder needs that I found my calling.
I saw that when teams were armed with a clear, collaborative plan, everything changed. Confusion became confidence. Reluctance turned into empowered action. A good plan didn't just manage a project; it unleashed a team's potential.
Today, I dedicate my time to helping other leaders and managers find the clarity they need to grow their teams and organizations. In my work with clients, I bring practical experience, project management credentials, a sense of humor, and the core belief that a clear plan is the kindest and most powerful tool you can give your team.
