Asya Watkins is the Consultant & Strategic Advisor leaders call when the stakes are high, the path is unclear, and the next move matters. She works with executives, founders, CEOs, nonprofit leaders, and high-performing professionals navigating growth, career progression, organizational complexity, and consequential decisions.

With more than two decades across corporate leadership, project management, entrepreneurship, education, and business building, Asya brings lived experience, strategic judgment, and real execution, not theory. She built Women Of Project Management® from the ground up and advised Western Governors University, first on its project management certificate program, then as a board member helping expand that foundation into a Bachelor of Science in Project Management for working adults.

A global speaker whose work has taken her from Atlanta to Beijing, China, Asya has spoken at Apple in Culver City, California, for Women’s History Month, Mastercard’s annual Project & Program Management Conference for employees across the U.S., U.K., and India, and multiple Project Management Institute global conferences. She is a LinkedIn Learning Educator, former national spokesperson for National University, and author of the best-selling The Little Black Book of Project Management Advice. Her work and leadership have been featured in Forbes and Black Enterprise, recognized by public figures including Jada Pinkett Smith and Queen Latifah, included in national campaigns earning Emmy and Webby Awards, and honored with a City of Atlanta proclamation establishing Asya Watkins Women Of Project Management Day.

Clients hire Asya for judgment, pattern recognition, perspective, and the ability to see around corners. She helps leaders make stronger decisions, identify leverage, uncover opportunity, and move faster toward greater career, business, and financial outcomes.
