I help people work better.

I’m Mari Huertas (MAHR-ee WAIR-tahs) — a senior executive, coach, and consultant with 15+ years of experience in building great products and programs, teams and cultures.

I help organizations evolve to be happy, healthy, and efficient — to focus on the right opportunities, deliver on big goals, and thrive as they scale.

My approach: Clarify the goal, simplify the solution, and amplify the impact.

How I can help you

Career coaching

We start with where you are, and help you get where you want to go — even if you’re not sure what that means for you yet.

We can partner together to review / write your CV, conduct interview prep, talk through your career goals, or address a tough problem you need to solve on the job. I’ve seen it all, and I’m happy to help you navigate it.

Consulting

Many teams are in a state of transition as leaders change, work continues to be hybrid or remote, and colleagues try to balance their personal and professional goals within businesses that are in an active state of transition.

We can work together to drive critical business initiatives, fill leadership gaps, and guide organizational changes — all with an evolved end state in mind.
