Maria became an executive coach because she believes we can solve the problems facing our world today by bringing out the best in each one of us, challenging the status quo and by thinking differently about who we are and what we do, one leader, one team and one company at a time. She brings her clients in-depth CliftonStrengths® expertise and as a coach she helps each client turn talent into strength in their role as a leader in business and of others. Maria’s certifications include the CPCC Certification from The Coaches Training Institute and an ACC from ICF The International Coach Federation. The greatest value she brings to her clients is that she will bring out the best in people with a very direct, open and holistic approach.

Specialty
