About Jackie Wheat

I help organizations translate vision into environments, experiences, and strategies that work—both for people and for business.With over two decades of experience in architecture, interiors, and workplace strategy, I’ve led projects ranging from complex corporate campuses to highly tailored interior environments. My background in design allows me to bridge creative intent with operational realities, aligning design firms, clients, and partners around a shared vision and clear path forward.Known for a thoughtful, people-centered leadership style, I believe strong outcomes are rooted in trust, transparency, and open communication. I’ve built and led cross-functional teams, guided process improvements, and facilitated alignment across closely collaborating departments by identifying inefficiencies, redundancies, and gaps—turning complexity into clarity.In addition to project and design leadership, I bring deep experience in strategic business development. I’ve developed targeted growth plans, strengthened client relationships, and helped organizations position their expertise more clearly in the market—driving meaningful, sustainable growth.At my core, I’m a connector: between strategy and execution, creativity and business, people and process.
