Meet Jeff

Your Executive & Leadership Coach

I'm Jeff Rothenberg, an executive coach based in Phoenix who works with professionals and leadership teams across the U.S. After 15+ years leading and scaling companies from early stage startups to billion-dollar valuations, I've learned what separates effective leaders from those who burn out: it's not talent or hard work. It's self-awareness, strategic communication, decisive leadership, and the ability to perform under pressure.

Today, I combine that real-world experience with professional assessment tools (MBTI, CliftonStrengths, 360-degree feedback) and proven coaching frameworks to help executives, entrepreneurs, and emerging leaders perform at their highest level—without sacrificing balance or authenticity. Whether you're navigating organizational change, stepping into a bigger role, or building a high-performing team, I bring structure, insight, and accountability to help you lead with confidence.

MY STORY
executive coaching executive leadership coaching executive life coach life coach for executives best leadership coaches career and leadership coach executive leadership coaching services

Why Executive Coaching Matters More Than Ever

The modern workplace demands more from leaders than ever before: emotional intelligence, adaptability, authenticity—and now, the ability to lead through rapid technological change.

As AI transforms how work gets done, the skills that matter most are distinctly human: strategic thinking, emotional intelligence, authentic communication, and the ability to inspire teams through uncertainty. Technology can't replace leadership—it makes great leadership more valuable than ever.

But many executives reach a point where success starts to feel heavy—where confidence wavers, communication falters, and clarity fades beneath constant pressure.

Without the right support, it can look like:

  • Imposter syndrome or "leadership fatigue" creeping in despite outward success

  • Difficulty managing stress, team dynamics, or big decisions

  • Communication issues that impact influence and trust

  • A career that looks great on paper but feels misaligned inside

You don’t need to carry all of that alone.

Executive coaching creates space to reset, reflect, and reframe—so you can lead with renewed energy, confidence, and authenticity.

  • What Leaders Are Saying:

    “I was stuck in a career that looked great on paper but left me feeling like crap on the inside. Jeff didn't just help me figure out what I wanted—he helped me create a strategic plan to get there. Within six months, I transitioned into a role that actually uses my strengths and pays me 19% more. In my time working with Jeff it was clear to me just how deeply he cared about me but also pushed me in a compassionate way to see my blockers in front of me head on and that made all the difference. I cannot thank Jeff enough for this new start for myself and my family.”

    — JOHN H., VICE PRESIDENT OF CLINICAL OPERATIONS

  • What Leaders Are Saying:

    “Jeff's coaching came at the perfect time—I was being promoted to VP but seriously doubting whether I could handle the jump from managing 12 people to leading a 45-person sales organization. His leadership insights were practical and immediately applicable, but what really made the difference was his genuine belief in my abilities when I couldn't see them myself. He helped me put together a 30,60,90+ day promotion plan outlining the tangible and intangible areas of what success looked and felt like which was amazing. Five months later, I’ve hit about 85% of my personal leadership goals thus far, our team is on track to hit our end of year quotas, and most importantly I’m feeling confident that I’m the right person for this role and beyond! Jeff doesn't just coach you; he becomes your biggest advocate and strategic thought partner when you need it most.”

    — TIM P., VICE PRESIDENT OF SALES

  • What Leaders Are Saying:

    “Jeff led our sales team through a half-day Myers-Briggs assessment and team dynamics overview that was really impactful. His insightful approach brought clarity to how each team member operates and helped us understand our individual strengths and how to leverage them collectively.

    Jeff's engaging style kept our sales reps actively involved throughout the session. While it was a lot to absorb, he made sure we walked away with practical tools we could implement immediately. We learned about our working styles, grew closer as a team, and gained concrete strategies to collaborate more effectively.

    We're already seeing benefits in our weekly pipeline reviews - communication has improved and team meetings are more productive. Jeff's expertise and ability to connect with our group left a lasting impression. I highly recommend him to any organization looking to elevate team dynamics and drive real results.”

    — LEON D., VICE PRESIDENT OF SALES

  • What Leaders Are Saying:

    “I brought Jeff in for classic work-life balance issues—running Scéal Films while serving on multiple boards was burning me out. I thought I just needed better time management.

    But Jeff helped me see I was overcommitting everywhere: work projects, social events, family obligations. The pattern was the same whether it was saying yes to another board position or my cousin's third baby shower this year.

    He taught me how to have those awkward conversations about stepping back, whether from professional commitments or personal ones that weren't serving anyone. We worked on practical delegation skills, but also on trusting my team and being present in relationships instead of mentally planning my next meeting.

    The humanitarian documentary work that originally drew me to filmmaking? I reconnected with that passion. My friendships became more meaningful because I was actually there instead of half-focused. My team got more creative because I stopped micromanaging.

    I have countless examples of how working on one area improved the others. Jeff doesn't just help you manage your time better—he helps you live more intentionally across every aspect of your life. That's the kind of transformation you can't put a price on.”

The 4-Pillar

Method

for Executive Leadership

My approach to executive coaching is built on four essential pillars—Discover, Stabilize, Strategize, Execute. Skip one, and you stay stuck. Master all four, and you lead with confidence, clarity, and lasting impact.

Discover

We'll identify your Unique Leadership Genius—your authentic style, core strengths, and communication patterns—using professional assessments (MBTI, StrengthsFinder, leadership 360s) and deep self-awareness work.

You'll stop second-guessing your decisions and start leading with confidence from your natural strengths.

Stabilize

We'll assess your leadership foundation (stress levels, work-life integration, team dynamics, decision fatigue) and stabilize what's undermining your effectiveness BEFORE adding new strategies—because you can't lead sustainably from burnout.

You'll lead with renewed energy and clarity, not from exhaustion and overwhelm.

Strategize

We'll build your executive leadership playbook—specific strategies for difficult conversations, high-stakes decisions, executive presence, and team motivation—customized to your role and organizational challenges.

No more winging it. Just proven strategies that amplify your leadership effectiveness.

Execute

Together, we'll transform insights into measurable results through ongoing coaching, accountability, and real-world application—you don't just learn leadership principles, you consistently demonstrate them.

In 6 months, you won't be "working on" your leadership. You'll be the executive others look to—confident, clear, and in command.

FAQs

  • Executive coaching is a personalized partnership that helps you lead with greater clarity, confidence, and impact—by building on who you already are at your best.

    My approach is assessment-driven and strengths-based. We use tools like MBTI, CliftonStrengths, and 360 degree feedback to identify what you're naturally wired to do well, then position your leadership around those strengths. Because no one can compete with you being authentically you.

    This work is for executives, entrepreneurs, emerging leaders and senior leaders who want to cut through the noise and lead authentically—without burning out or compromising who they are.

  • Leadership training teaches concepts in a classroom. Therapy explores your past. Executive leadership coaching focuses on your future—and the actions that will get you there.

    My coaching is entirely customized to your real challenges: difficult conversations, strategic decisions, team dynamics, executive presence building, or positioning yourself for the next level.

    We complete exercises in real-time, process breakthroughs as they happen, and build sustainable systems. It's not about feeling better temporarily—it's about becoming a better leader for your team and your family permanently.

  • Absolutely. While I'm based in Phoenix with an office in the Biltmore area, I work with executives throughout the U.S. via private Zoom sessions.

    Whether you prefer in-person sessions at my Biltmore office or virtual meetings, we'll find what works for your schedule.

    My 15+ years in Phoenix's tech and startup ecosystem means I understand the unique challenges local executives face.

  • Executive leadership coaching is most powerful for leaders who are already capable—but know they're capable of more.

    You might be:

    • A C-suite executive refining strategic priorities

    • A founder scaling a team for the first time

    • A senior manager preparing for an executive role

    • A high-performer navigating a career transition

    This work is especially valuable if you're:

    • Feeling stuck despite doing everything "right"

    • Leading through complexity or rapid change

    • Ready to lead authentically instead of competing on someone else's terms

    • Looking for a customized roadmap based on your actual strengths

  • Most leaders notice measurable shifts in clarity, confidence, and decision-making within 4–6 sessions.

    Lasting transformation typically happens over 6-12 months using my 4-Pillar Framework—a systematic approach covering Awareness, Strategy, Action, and Sustainability. This creates real change, not temporary motivation.

    My goal is giving you frameworks and self-awareness that make you independent—so you lead powerfully long after our work together ends.

  • My programs are comprehensive, assessment-driven, and designed for Phoenix executives who want transformation, not just conversation.

    Each program includes:

    • Professional assessments (MBTI, CliftonStrengths, 360 feedback) to map your unique wiring

    • Intensive weekly sessions at my Biltmore office or via Zoom

    • The 4-Pillar Framework tailored to your specific goals

    • Real-time exercises you can apply immediately

    • Between-session support and action plans

    • A focus on independence and sustainable systems

    This is premium work for executives serious about leading at their highest level—and ready to do what it takes.
