Leadership Recruiting, Toast

I've personally benefited from several months of professional coaching from Tatiana. Her ability to understand the many layers of complexity, the challenges I've been encountering, and how these factors play into my innate strengths and development areas has greatly improved my self-awareness, shifted my paradigms in how I'm looking at local vs macro problems, improved my communication skills, and up-leveled how I come across with my own leadership cohort. Because we've been able to go both deep and wide, I feel more confident in how I'm progressing my skills as a leader, manager, and over time as a force-multiplier in my company. I can look back and definitely say the distance I've matured in my ability to influence and partner in a highly collaborative environment has derived from Tatiana's coaching and thought-provoking questions. She's challenged me in every session to critically think about more factors, grounded me in what I know to be true, how to decision-tree through assumptions and ambiguous spaces.

"It’s been great working with Tatiana as I go about building my small but global consulting business. She is helping me understand how my own natural style lends itself to the different build phases, such as how I prefer to build relationships and what my technical input ought to be. She’s also helping me understand what my “edge” is and how to play to that, as well as focusing on the core things that I need to prioritise to make it work. I can be inclined to overlook the things that are boring-but-important. She’s holding me to account on that stuff. I also like the structure Tatiana is helping me to apply – structure is definitely not my strong point. She’s also good to bounce ideas off – she keeps me honest and focused on what we’re there to achieve. It feels like a safe space to get creative. I’m really pleased with the fit we have. And my business is going great!"

“My weekly conversations with Tatiana were a welcomed respite in an otherwise chaotic week. I’d always leave our sessions with energy, ideas to try out and clarity for what was ahead. Having someone to confide in was critical at this inflection point in my career. It also made me realize that the issues I struggled with were not uncommon at this stage of my career. I now look at them as growth opportunities rather than blockers which has helped me to move forward.“
