Hello, I’m Yoo-Jin Hong.

For 20+ years, I’ve led teams, partnered with boards, and managed non-profit and civic organizations, overseeing multi-million dollar budgets, navigating complex environments, and guiding organizations through major transitions.

I started SeventhAbove to support leadership in two ways: through leadership coaching and interim executive service.

How I Work

I bring executive experience into every engagement. I understand the pressures of leadership because I’ve held those roles myself. Leadership is not about certainty. It’s about steadiness in motion.

My approach is:

  • Calm and steady

  • Clear and direct

  • Strategic and practical

  • Focused on progress, not just performance

At pivotal moments, how we lead determines what comes next.

Let’s talk.

If you’re navigating a leadership transition - personally or organizationally - I welcome a conversation about what steady, strategic support could look like.
