Changemaking Systems Thinkers with Soul
Changemakers who have experienced outdated models and want new ones. But they're not just dreamers, they're also doers. They zoom out to see the big picture—how structures shape outcomes, how power flows, how histories linger. But they also zoom in, knowing that real change is built relationship by relationship, decision by decision. They care about justice and joy, and want their work to mean something.
Inside the System, But Ready to Shift It
Internal changemakers in institutions, philanthropy, or corporate spaces who are looking for new ways to lead and influence. People working within existing structures, but dreaming of what could be.

Why Invite Elyssa Jechow as a Guest?
1. I connect bold ideas to real action, making abstract ideas like leadership, equity, and reimagining success feel possible and energizing. 2. I speak from experience, having lived (for better or worse) the pivots, risks, and reinventions I talk about. Your stories are rich, relatable, and full of insight. 3. I'm honest and real, bringing authenticity and humility to conversations. I share the messy middle, not just the polished outcome. 4. In a pretty superficial world, I hold space for the deep conversations, asking thoughtful questions and especially opening space for nuance. Conversation with me is intelligent, layered, and human. 5. I leave listeners equipped, making sure they walk away with something useful, giving them the sense and tools so they can do the thing too.
