Executive Career Coaching for

High-Achieving and High-Potential Senior Leaders Who Want More

I coach high-achieving senior leaders in Dallas, New York, Silicon Valley, Los Angeles, Chicago—and across the U.S.—who are ready to lead with clarity, confidence, and claim their seat at the table.

Meet Your Coach, Nickquolette Barrett

With 35 years in corporate—26+ of them in corporate leadership—at a Fortune 36 multi-billion dollar company, I’ve seen firsthand what it takes to rise, lead, and thrive at the top.

But I’ve also seen what holds talented leaders back: unclear vision, poor positioning, and no one in their corner with the real-world experience to call B.S. and build strategy.

As a certified executive coach (PCC – International Coaching Federation) with a Master of Science in Leadership and Organizational Development, I blend corporate expertise, academic rigor, and cultural awareness into coaching that actually changes careers and lives.

What Senior Leaders Want From Coaching

Mid- to senior-level professionals in industries like healthcare, tech, and insurance invest in executive coaching to elevate their leadership impact. They seek targeted support in areas such as executive presence, influence, and career advancement, with clear outcomes like promotion readiness, improved performance, and reduced burnout.

Below, we outline the key deliverables these clients and corporate sponsors care about, the results they expect, and recommend.

- Rawah Mohamed

Global Project Manager

"Nickquolette Barrett is a phenomenal and truly amazing career coach.

Before working with her, I had been unemployed for nearly 10 months and was completely frustrated. Despite having U.S.-based education and international project management experience, I wasn’t getting any responses—not even rejections. My résumé and LinkedIn just weren’t opening any doors.

After following Nickquolette’s videos on LinkedIn and YouTube for a while, I finally built up the courage to reach out. I’m so glad I did. Through five highly personalized coaching sessions, she helped me completely transform my résumé and LinkedIn profile into a compelling personal brand that highlighted my global value. Her coaching gave me the confidence to own my story, and within just 30 days, I landed my dream role as a Global Project Manager with exciting compensation at a U.S.-based company.

I deeply appreciate her professionalism, expertise, and genuine support. If you’re an international professional feeling stuck—don’t wait 10 months like I did. Reach out to Nickquolette now."

Executive Coaching That Pays You Back

Whether you’re in healthcare, tech, or insurance, the pattern is the same: mid- to senior-level leaders like you are carrying the weight, but not always getting the visibility or elevation you deserve. You're expected to lead like an exec but rarely coached like one. That’s where I come in.

What You Really Want (And What I Deliver):

Leadership that lands. You want executive presence that commands respect, not eye-rolls. We’ll work on how you show up in meetings, how you lead under pressure, and how to sound like a senior decision-maker even when you’re second-guessing yourself. No more imposter syndrome. We work with you to eradicate it.
Career clarity & strategic next steps. You’re not here for vibes—you’re here for value. We map out the right role, not just any role, and how to become the obvious choice for it. Even, if it means pivoting industries. Career transitions are what we do best.
Stakeholder influence. You’ll master communication that moves agendas forward and relationships upward. No more repeating yourself in meetings or being overlooked in org charts. And, if someone steals your idea, we will coach you on how to take it right back with grace.
Performance without burnout. We’ll create systems and boundaries that help you deliver high-impact results without running on fumes. Your well-being matters just as much as your wins. Burnout never looked good on anyone.
ROI that speaks for itself. Promotions. Salary increases. Bonuses. Stock options. Career-defining moves. My clients don’t just feel better—they cash better checks. Hence, your investment in our services returns right back to you.

- Kareem Rodgers, MHRIR, SHRM-CP

CEO, The Fit Recruiter

"Nickquolette is one of the most amazing coaches I have worked with. As a resume writer/career coach, I was struggling with figuring out how to grow my business. Even though I started my business years ago, there were still things I wanted to do to improve my services and charge more.

When Nickquolette became my coach, she helped me with those initiatives. Not only did she teach me additional skills, such as interview prep and career coaching, but she took her time in guiding me while also being an amazing light of encouragement.

One thing that makes Nickquolette stand out the most is her ability to relate and emphasize with you as a human first before anything. My position at my full time job was eliminated in the 4th quarter of 2023 and was feeling down about being let go.

Nickquolette provided a space for me to air my disappointment and frustration as a jobseeker while also providing me a ray of encouragement and hope. I am forever thankful for the help, love, and humor she always provide for me and I highly recommend her as a coach, mentor, and friend."

- Charmaine Stradford, M.S.

Director, Business Development, Business Marketing Organization (Tech)

"Navigating the final years of your career can be just as uncertain as the first. When my director role was eliminated, I found myself unexpectedly in limbo—unsure whether to take a lower-level position or make a bold move. That’s when I turned to Nickquolette Barrett.

Our coaching sessions—some over the phone and one over a soul-nourishing breakfast—helped me clear the fog. Nickquolette didn’t just talk strategy; she listened deeply, asked powerful questions, and helped me map out a plan that honored both my expertise and the career legacy I want to leave behind.

She has an extraordinary ability to find the hidden gems in your experience, show you how to leverage them, and empower you to move forward with clarity and confidence. Her energy, insight, and compassion are unmatched. If you’re in a career transition—especially near retirement—Nickquolette is the strategist you want in your corner."

- Danielle S. Davis, MA Ed.

Partner, Leadership Consultant

In May of 2020, during the pandemic, I found myself in a conundrum of whether to move forward in my career path of administration in schools or take on another direction. After working with Nickquolette, I found that professional who knew how to reset my personal brand and open doors of possibilities that I would never have looked at for a career move.

Nickquolette carefully and patiently took her time to discuss next moves and how to prepare for them. Her process was in depth and well worth the money that was spent. I was able to land a new career position, making considerably more money, and doing something that was within my strengths with room to grow.

All of this was not possible if it were not for Nickquolette. If you are looking for a knowledgeable and professional person to help you transition into your next move...you need to get Nickquolette.
