Tessa White

At a time when individuals are struggling with their job satisfaction, an unlikely ally was found in a former Fortune 50 executive-turned-employee-advocate. Tessa White, known as the Job Doctor, launched a practice to help individuals better navigate the workplace, and help companies unlock the potential of their people, just as the pandemic hit.

White exploded on social media with her expertise on careers and how to navigate the complicated relationship between individuals and the workplace in late 2020, after 20 years leading human resources functions within the Fortune 50 to fast growth start-ups. Her insights struck a chord, garnering more than one million followers on social media and she is consistently ranked in the top 1% of similar creators on her LIVE career sessions on TikTok. Her unique perspective on the modern workplace earned her a place on USA Today’s list as one of the top speakers to watch in 2022.

A frequent guest on national television shows and in top tier publications, she has been featured in the media in outlets such as CNN Business, The Washington Post, Forbes, Wall Street Journal, Entrepreneur, and Inc. She is also called on as a human resources expert and guest on national television programs such as "Good Morning America." Her book, "The Unspoken Truths for Career Success: Navigating Pay, Promotions, and Power at Work," was released in 2023; her podcast, The Job Doctor is In, is available on Spotify and Apple.

White serves on the Board of Trustees for Utah State University, and on the board for Utah Valley University’s Women's Success Center. She is also on the Board of the Utah Tech Innovations Council, which mentors and grows Utah’s best and brightest upcoming businesses. When she isn’t working with companies or individuals about the modern workplace, she can be found on the river, flyfishing.
