What is an Executive Function Coach?

An Executive Function Coach is a professional who helps individuals develop skills related to planning, organization, time management, and self-regulation. These coaches work with clients who may struggle with executive functioning due to ADHD, learning differences, or other challenges. They use personalized strategies and tools to support clients in areas such as goal setting, prioritizing tasks, and overcoming procrastination. The ultimate goal is to help clients become more independent and effective in managing their daily responsibilities and achieving their personal or academic goals.

How does an Executive Function Coach typically collaborate with teachers, parents, and other professionals to support clients?

Executive Function Coaches often work closely with teachers, parents, and sometimes therapists to create a consistent support network for their clients. This collaboration may involve sharing progress updates, discussing strategies for organization or time management, and adapting approaches based on feedback from all stakeholders. By maintaining open communication, the coach ensures that clients receive cohesive guidance both in and out of sessions, which is especially valuable for students managing academic workloads or adults balancing multiple responsibilities.

Academic Coaches concentrate on improving specific academic skills and performance. While both roles support learning, Executive Function Coaches target broader cognitive skills, whereas Academic Coaches focus on subject-specific support.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as an Executive Function Coach, and why are they important?

To thrive as an Executive Function Coach, you need expertise in educational strategies, learning differences, and cognitive development, often supported by a degree in education, psychology, or related fields. Familiarity with coaching frameworks, online communication tools, and assessment systems like the Behavior Rating Inventory of Executive Function (BRIEF) is common. Strong interpersonal skills, patience, and the ability to motivate and individualize support help coaches build trust and foster growth in clients. These skills ensure that clients receive effective, personalized strategies to improve organization, time management, and self-regulation.

  • Assess students’ needs across 18 key skill areas (initial assessment provided), and design 10, 20, or 30-week development plans targeting 3–5 skills per 10-week cycle

  • Track student progress using weekly tasks, milestone projects, and periodic assessments

  • Use provided resources as desired, and remain adaptable as new practices and tools are introduced across the service

  • Coordinate with the Execution Mentor (task execution and accountability), Strategist (academic and extracurricular strategy), and Student Success Manager (parent-facing progress updates) as needed

  • Support students in building habits for long-term academic and professional success

  • Support students in building character (e.g. integrity, resilience, initiative, empathy, self-motivation, intellectual curiosity) and emotional intelligence

Required Qualifications

  • PhD or Master’s degree in coaching/counseling from an accredited institution

  • Clinical or other formal experience working with youth

  • Demonstrated success working with youth/students


Preferred Qualifications

  • Leadership experience in public or private sectors

  • Background in executive function coaching or leadership development

  • Understanding of current college admissions trends

  • Experience working with international students

  • Familiarity with student assessments, progress tracking, and skills assessment frameworks


Success in This Role Means…

  • Helping students achieve measurable improvements in self-management, communication, and leadership abilities

  • Creating supportive yet structured learning environments

  • Supporting our mission to develop well-rounded, capable, and resilient future leaders

  • Helping students thrive across academic, personal, and leadership dimensions
