TESTIMONIALS / WHAT MAKES THREEEQ DIFFERENT?
As a father and tech CEO 13 years ago, Jason L. Ma noticed that most young people—the next generation—had yet to unleash their full potential and actualize their best selves. “Wasted potential, leaving lots of future money on the table! There is a dearth of truly high-quality, next-gen leaders…” Jason would think. He then decided to dedicate his second career to transforming young achievers, preparing them to gain admission to great universities, mentoring them to develop powerful mindsets and soft skills, and helping them to thrive in impactful careers.
Since then, Jason and his teams have built a distinctive track record in having successfully inspired and guided 1-on-1 hundreds of driven high schoolers, college students, working adults, and even C-suite leaders (Gen Z, Millennial, and Gen X achievers) in accomplishing strong outcomes. Along the way, Jason founded ThreeEQ, a family-owned, premier education and global (tech) business consultancy.
To share part of his teachings, he contributed to Forbes on elite college admissions, higher education, leadership, entrepreneurship, and mentorship (1.5M+ views), and authored the critically acclaimed book Young Leaders 3.0: Stories, Insights, and Tips for Next-Generation Achievers.
Through the journey, Jason was a delegate to the invitation-only Forbes Global CEO Conference for 8 years before Forbes Media was acquired. He reminisces lightheartedly: “I was the worst house in the best neighborhood (of billionaires and UHNWIs)!”
In 2014, Jason was appointed as a member of the B20, the G20’s business advisory council, and has influenced helping the masses of people and businesses ever since. The B20 is the official voice of the private sector and recommends policies to the G20 Heads of State and governments, representing the global business community across all G20 economies. The G20 represents over 80% of the global nominal GDP of nearly US$90 trillion and 2/3 of the worldwide population of 7.8 billion people. Through the G20 and B20 Presidencies of Australia, Turkey, China, Germany, Argentina, and Saudi Arabia in 2020, Jason has served as Silicon Valley’s leading member of the B20 Future of Work and Education Taskforce.
Jason has spoken about Leadership 3.0 and other global (tech) business, education, and family topics at some of the most elite summits and places around the world.
Today, Jason Ma, known as the Chief Mentor of Next-Gen Leaders in high-level circles, and Team ThreeEQ masterfully provide
1. Ivy League & highly competitive college planning, applications, & admissions counseling
2. Impactful, high-end career coaching
3. Intergenerational, cross-cultural communication & Leadership 3.0 coaching
4. Personal success and family relationship enrichment coaching
5. Multigenerational, UHNW family succession planning facilitation
6. Global CEO/Board strategic advising & enterprise business “rainmaking”
7. International speaking and masterclass leadership
ThreeEQ is also deeply and continuously engaged in applied research. “Besides Team ThreeEQ’s effort, I personally enjoy investing 15 to 20 hours per week in applicable, in-depth learning of important topics,” Jason says.
We maintain a 100% success rate (defined by outcomes that clients are happy about) with coachable, committed, high-achieving students in our selected private client families.
