Today we are meeting a top marketing executive, a leadership and branding coach and a top business school professor – the many-hatted Jenny Fernandez.
Jenny is an award-winning executive and team coach, Columbia and NYU faculty, and brand strategist. She works with senior leaders and their teams to maximise their impact by becoming more curious, collaborative, and resilient. Her work spans Fortune 500 companies, startups, and higher education. Jenny has been recognized by Thinkers50 Radar as one of the Top 30 Management Thinkers to Watch, and a Top 30 Global Guru.
Like me she is a member of Marshall Goldsmith’s 100 Coaches Agency and is a contributing author at Harvard Business Review, Forbes, and Fast Company and featured by The Washington Post and HuffPost.
She is a keynote speaker, moderator, and panelist in leadership, and the new world of work. Her book, Zig-Zag to Top – How to Master the Habits, Behaviors, and Mindset to Succeed, comes out in 2025.
Well that’s all well and good, but as my regular listeners will know, I’m deeply curious about the people behind the accolades, and I can’t wait to hear more about the Unlock Moments that shaped Jenny’s journey from growing up in the Dominican Republic to the life she leads today.
