About Jessica Schenck

Building learners and leaders who choose courage over comfort, learning over fear, and excellence over average.I’m a leadership and professional development strategist passionate about helping others grow, lead authentically, and achieve meaningful results. My approach is grounded in values:1⃣ Authenticity – empowering people to bring their true selves forward2⃣ Courage – choosing growth over comfort3⃣ Simplicity – cutting through noise to what really matters4⃣ Learning – staying curious and adaptive5⃣ Excellence – driving impact, not just activityI graduated from a liberal arts school and “grew up professionally” in the non-profit sector—experiences that shaped how I design, facilitate and lead training today. With limited resources and high expectations, I learned early on to be resourceful, to weigh every decision with a cost/benefit mindset, and to ensure that development initiatives drive tangible business results. In my career, I’ve: Designed and led global training initiatives across time zones and cultures Created and implemented virtual onboarding and systems training during the challenges of COVID Built and managed learning management systems (LMS) and eLearning programs Supported leaders and learners with custom training and coaching that moves the needle on performance Led teams and strategies that balance business priorities with people development Facilitated DiSC & Strengths sessions for individuals and teams Leveraged Microsoft PowerAutomate, Lists, and PowerBI to automate processes & report on learning dataAt my core, I believe training should never be “nice-to-have.” It should inspire, transform, and deliver measurable value to the business. That’s why I approach development as both an art and a science—creative in design, intentional in delivery, and strategic in impact.Strengths & Style: CliftonStrengths Top 5: Individualization | Connectedness | Relator | Learner | Strategic DiSC Profile: Steady (S) Style – grounded, collaborative, and relationship-drivenPersonally: I believe love can be felt through food. That empathy can change the world. That nature heals most wounds. And that faith and family always come first.
