Helping leaders and teams navigate pressure, change, & the human realities of work.

Through executive coaching, leadership workshops, and advisory work, Julie Howard helps leaders and teams navigate high-stakes moments of change and pressure so organizations move forward with greater clarity, alignment, and lasting results.

There is no progress without change.

But change isn’t always easy. Behind every strategy, initiative, or transformation are people responding to pressure, uncertainty, and doubt. As a former executive and now an executive coach and leadership advisor, Julie Howard brings an insider’s perspective to these moments — helping leaders navigate them with greater clarity and honesty, strengthen alignment, improve execution, and achieve results that last.

“Insider” Coaching

What makes our coaching “insider”? Real world experience. I have been there - in the trenches - in companies and brands ranging from startups to world class, global organizations. I understand what it means to manage the complexities of both business and people. I partners with leaders and individuals to not only tackle immediate challenges but also uncover and address the underlying causes. Together, we build a clear, step-by-step plan for meaningful change.

Innovation & Team Building

Chances are, you’ve been to your share of team-building events—and maybe even an innovation offsite or two. At JH Associates, we’ve created something different: a unique hybrid that blends the energy of team building with the impact of real business results.

    Coaching Client

  • “Working with Julie is the easiest money I've ever spent. Whereas other coaches had given me general advice, Julie was willing to roll-up her sleeves and get granular, providing the point of view of a seasoned industry veteran, which is what I really needed… While I have 'graduated' from our initial engagement, I look forward to revisiting and working with her for years to come!

Feedback on

Leadership Workshops

“Honestly, I can't think of anything that was missing, … I LOVED these sessions. I think they were really engaging and necessary both for new and seasoned managers as it touched upon both how manage oneself and others.”


“This was SOOOOO amazing and super helpful to work and my personal life as well!”


“Learning what to look for in interviews, taking a step back and reassessing how I listen to others, how to have difficult conversations, and dealing with other personality types is critical and doesn't get a lot of attention.”
