Kvon Tucker

Kvon Tucker

Coach · Advisory Board

Kvon Tucker is the CEO and Founder of Consciously, a purpose-driven Executive and Leadership Coaching firm dedicated to helping leaders grow with clarity, freedom, and purpose. A Professional Certified Coach (PCC) with over 2,000 coaching hours, Kvon leads The Consciously Collective, a community of light-bearing leaders co-creating a world where every leader is free to live and lead with intention.

Kvon's journey into leadership coaching began long before Consciously. Raised in Kansas and California, he grew up curious about human behavior and the ways people treat one another. That curiosity eventually led him to study Industrial-Organizational Psychology, launching a career in learning and leadership development. His early years at Southern California Edison ignited a passion for helping managers and leaders grow, which he deepened through facilitation, experiential learning, and coaching.

He went on to hold leadership roles at Netflix, Amazon, and Google, where he designed and led leadership development programs for managers and executives navigating hyper-growth and scale. Most recently, Kvon served as Head of Manager and Leadership Development for Google's Recruiting organization. Across these roles, he discovered what became his life's purpose: helping people grow through coaching.

Today, Kvon partners with senior leaders at some of the world's most impactful companies—including Amazon, Google, Meta, Tesla, Netflix, and LinkedIn. His coaching blends organizational psychology, leadership science, and deep personal insight to help leaders expand self-awareness, align with their purpose, and create cultures of freedom and fulfillment. His guiding principle is simple: all I know is how to help people grow.

Beyond his work, Kvon finds joy in being present with his family. His "happy place" often looks like quiet Saturday morning conversations with his wife, playful moments with his daughter, or long walks connecting with loved ones. These values of peace, connection, and love ground his life and his coaching practice alike.
