For Next Gens and Families Private Mentorship for Elite Admissions, |
“You get through to these kids in a way most can’t.”
—Fortune 500 CEO
“You have a gift in how you work with these kids. I get it.”
—Don Levy, former SVP, Sony Pictures
ThreeEQ inspires and guides select middle, high school, college, and graduate students, and young professionals, through highly personalized, private 1:1 mentorship to achieve strong outcomes with well-being and happiness.
Private mentees have earned admission to top colleges/universities and graduate/professional schools, built high-impact careers, grown as emotionally and socially intelligent leaders, and strengthened family unity and legacy.
Each engagement is personally led by Mr. Ma, supported by Team ThreeEQ, and designed to deliver consistently strong outcomes among coachable, committed clients.
The greatest cost is opportunity loss and long-term regret, not fees, when trusted third-party guidance comes too late, or the journey isn’t completed with clarity and consistency.
ThreeEQ includes admissions consulting, and career, life, and executive coaching, and goes further. We integrate practical psychology, strategic positioning, and holistic development. Next Gens build growth mindset, strategic thinking, high-impact activities and habits, soft skills, leadership, and relationships to perform at their best across education, life, and career.
At the core is Mr. Ma’s well-established 4S and 3EQ framework:
• 4S: Visionary Story, State, Strategies, and Soft + Hard Skills
• 3EQ: Practical Emotional, Social, and Leadership Intelligence
>> Middle Schoolers
>> High School Students
>> College & Graduate Students
>> Young Professionals
>> Parents & Family Leaders
Jason Ma chaired the Family Office & Private Wealth Legacy Summit 2025 and moderated its opening panel, “Bridging Generations—Wealth Transfer Dialogues Between Parents and Heirs,” in the Hamptons. A special moment with his two Gen Z daughters, Sabrina and Lydia, contributing together onstage.

For Entrepreneurs and Private Executive Mentoring for Decision Quality, Leadership Under Pressure, and Inflection-Point Execution |
“Your coaching has been incredibly helpful to me.”
—Entrepreneur and mother of adult children

NFL Hall of Famer and private equity leader Steve Young, Jason Ma, and fellow speakers at the Legacy Builders Summit
Jason Ma serves as a trusted executive coach and mentor to select CEOs, founders, and senior leaders navigating growth transitions, inflection points, and complex decisions.
This work is strategic and pragmatic, and designed to strengthen discernment, performance, leadership, and long-term sustainability with well-being.
Common outcomes
Better execution and outcomes, sharper discernment and decision-making, stronger influence and strategic relationships, smoother transitions, improved resilience under pressure, and stronger practical emotional, social, and leadership intelligence (3EQ).
The greatest cost is opportunity loss, not fees. It often comes from delayed trusted third-party guidance, or lost momentum at critical moments. We help prevent that.

For Enterprises and Rainmaking, Major Dealmaking Support, and Senior Advisory at Inflection Points
“Jason Ma has proven to be an extremely astute company builder and global business leader.” “Jason Ma is the trusted voice you want in the room to navigate what really matters next.”

He is engaged at inflection points where leadership teams need faster clarity, tighter alignment, and access to the right decision-makers to move major initiatives forward. Common triggers include leadership transitions, strategic capital decisions, partner or M&A paths, restructuring, and pivotal growth initiatives. Work may include: • Rainmaking and major dealmaking support: targeted introductions to key decision-makers—strategic buyers, investors, partners, and operators—paired with clear positioning, a precise ask, and end-to-end follow-through to drive deals to close. • Senior advisory at inflection points: discernment through key decisions, restructuring, and leadership transitions • Major initiatives and deal support: narrative, sequencing, and stakeholder alignment across partnerships, strategic capital, acquisitions, and large initiatives • Sustainable advantage under pressure: stronger decision systems, leadership depth, and execution governance • Enterprise pattern recognition: perspective shaped by decades across technology, education, finance, media, and geopolitics, plus work with CEOs and boards, and the B20/G20 • Legacy, governance, and succession: when family dynamics intersect with enterprise outcomes • AI/tech direct investing: sharing and evaluating select deals, and long-term capital strategy . ![]() B20/G20 member Jason Ma and Blackstone Chairman & CEO Steve Schwarzman at B20/G20 China Not a management consulting firm.
