Hi, I’m Olga:

Olga-About Photo

I am a transformative executive coach who helps senior leaders and their teams to successfully navigate change and complexity. For almost 20 years, I’ve been the go-to trusted advisor to leaders across large, matrixed organizations, bringing fresh perspectives to leadership effectiveness and team dynamics.

After working with me, my clients reported not only having achieved their initial coaching goal but also being well-equipped to take on their next challenge, whether a high-profile portfolio, project or promotion.

I’m not your typical leadership coach. I help leaders decipher organizational dynamics through systemic coaching - enabling them to see the invisible patterns that can make or break their success. My superpower? Turning complicated organizational challenges into clear, actionable strategies that create ripple effects throughout entire systems.

My unique insight comes from years of close collaboration with executives, observing and analyzing patterns that help or hinder organizational success.

My mission is to help leaders create lasting impact while building teams that thrive in a complex, everchanging environment.

My approach incorporates proven frameworks and methodologies in behavioural psychology, adult learning, systemic and team coaching. I blend insight with practical tools for application. The outcome? Clients get long-lasting, far-reaching results that are better than they ever imagined.

When I’m not partnering with leaders or teams, you will find me exploring what’s new in leadership and coaching, sharing insights on leadership and teaming, or hitting nature trails and beaches with my family. I believe lasting impact starts with genuine connection, and this is also how I approach every client engagement.

People I’ve worked with say this about me:

  • Big-picture strategic thinker and leader by nature

  • Talented at recognizing patterns and connecting dots

  • Seeks out and makes sense of multiple perspectives on an issue

  • Courage and skill to ask tough questions of those who have more power and authority than me

  • Willingness to voice the unpopular opinion, for the sake of arriving at a well thought-out strategy together

  • Challenge people’s thinking in a way that strengthens rather than damages our relationship

Hiring me as your coach and thought partner means you can get better results, sooner.

Close to 20 years of professional experience in leadership development, team development and organizational development, strategic HR consulting, coaching and facilitation.
