Executive Nomad is designed for senior American professionals who are ready to move beyond traditional leadership roles and corporate or public-sector career paths and step into high-value independent consulting, coaching, NED or workshops.
Many of the executives we work with come from senior roles in USA government, local authorities, utilities, finance, infrastructure, and private companies. They’re seasoned professionals with decades of operational and leadership experience across The United States who want more autonomy, purpose, and control over how and where they work without the politics, pressure, or limitations of traditional employment.
Our framework shows American based Directors, Heads of Service, Programme Leads, and former VPs how to transition into a location-independent consulting practice that delivers meaningful work without the stress, bureaucracy, or politics of full-time employment.
Whether you want to consult from home in New York, Florida, Michigan or Washington or anywhere else, you could work part-time from Europe, or build a portfolio career consisting of coaching, advisory, NED roles, and short consulting engagements, Executive Nomad gives you the clarity, strategy, and practical steps to make the shift confidently and quickly.
This United States edition of the Executive Nomad approach is tailored to the realities senior executives face today: redundancy cycles, restructures, early retirement, burn-out and the desire to keep contributing without being tied to an office.
To learn more about our strategy and to see if it would be a fit for your next chapter, we've devised a free, 3 minute quiz/scorecard that gives you a personalised road map to the Executive Nomad lifestyle.

You've heard of 'Digital Nomads'?
Pictures of 20somethings on instagram, clacking away at their laptop on a Bali beach, sipping Mojitos and their camera never far from their hand, beach backdrops and bikinis.
That's NOT what being an Executive Nomad
is all about (sorry).
There are similarities, of course.
Yes you can run an Executive Nomad lifestyle from anywhere, not just America. I've based myself for months at a time in bustling Greek harbour towns and ocean front apartments on Koh Samui.
But the point of being an Executive Nomad is that you travel the globe in style. No backpacks or budgets, no budget airlines or bunk-bed dorms. You keep on making the money, but on your terms'
I'm Jamie Sylvian - Since 1993, (yep, pre-internet) my whole life career in fact, I've charged Executive level consulting rates while I lived anywhere in the world that I want to be, for as long as I liked.
I took my work, my clients and my business with me (digitally, of course)
But the thing is
I've settled down for the winter season in European ski resorts and AirBnB'd in major cities like London, Sofia, Budapest, Skopje, Chiang Mai, Malaga, Sarejevo and Dublin.
They're all over the internet.
Real clients, paying Executive level fees for my expertise and experiences
Clients don't care where I work, they care what I deliver.
So What About You? - Time for a Change?
Becoming an Executive Nomad means
And as long as I delivered. As long as I solved their problem or helped them maximise an opportunity, they don't care (and rarely ask) where I'm actually doing the work.
You have full control over your work, your clients and colleagues, your time, your money and your head space
