I’m Alex,

I help founders, CEOs, and their teams elevate growth and late-stage startups to the next level. By enhancing performance, clarity, and focus, I empower them to tackle complex challenges and lead their organizations to unprecedented results.

Your next Leap foward

As a seasoned founder, CEO, executive, with experience in building fast-growing companies, you know that very few people understand the relentless pace and complexity of your role.

Your days are filled with strategic decisions, challenging the status quo, driving impactful change and rapid growth. You've mastered the art of leading with confidence in high-stakes environments, but beneath this assured exterior, you navigate a whirlwind of thoughts and emotions.

The solitude of your position, coupled with the weight of your responsibilities, often leaves you searching for a sense of peace and clarity.

Now that your company has reached a certain scale, you know the time has come to reinvent yourself and your management team again to get to the next level. 

Yet, there's a realisation that the traditional methods of leadership development no longer serves your evolving needs. You're seeking something more – a bespoke approach that resonates with your unique journey and challenges.

My expertise lies in guiding you and your management team through the transformation needed to take you to the next level. 

With years of experience, hundreds of coaching sessions and workshops with founders, CEOs, execs and their teams, here is what I will do with you and your teams:

Through a tailored, practical and holistic coaching approach I will help you and your management team elevate your performance, focus and confidence to meet today’s needs and to define where you want to take yourself and your company. Together we’ll create the momentum to take you there faster and with less effort. 

The Leap Process ™️

I use The Leap Process™️ methodology to facilitate your transformation.

Developed through years of experience working with leaders, studying and integrating holistic systems in psychology, behavioural science, mindfulness, strategic communications, anthropology and organizational change management.

  • Focus: Identifying where you are and where you want to go

    The first step in the Leap Process™️ includes in-depth meetings with CEO or CRO to map the current challenges and where you want to be from a leadership perspective in the next step of the company journey. Understand the dynamics, culture and organizational patterns you and your team have developed. Think of it as an x-ray that gives us a 360 view of what got you to this level and where you need to focus to go to the next.

    You've moved beyond the realm of basic leadership coaching, mentoring, and cookie-cutter programs. The fundamentals are well ingrained in you; what you require now isn't more of the same. So we’ll skip the standard leadership style tests and dive into the deeper drivers; your behaviours, beliefs, patterns, fears, mindset, blocks and emotional triggers.

  • Focus: Define a new leadership vision

    Once we are clear on who you really are and what got you to this point, we’ll get clarity around where you’re going. What kind of leader do you want to become? What does thriving look like on the next level, for you, your team and for your organization? Clarity and focus defined in an expanded vision. Not just the place you’re moving towards, but a new framework from which you’ll create, lead and communicate.

  • Focus: Holistic leadership coaching for CEO/CRO and their exec teams

    Now we know who you’re becoming, where you are going and it’s time to dive deep into creating that reality. The first 6 months we’ll do weekly holistic 1:1 coaching sessions with you and your key team members to create breakthroughs, momentum and a whole new way to operate.

    We’ll start to identify the dynamics and approaches that are not working anymore and together we create new pathways towards your vision. We’ll use effective and deep tools to evolve your inner landscape, and you’ll quickly see that the way you feel, think, make decisions, communicate and lead start to change. As a result you and your team start to grow, perform and deliver in alignment with that vision you defined.

  • Focus: Tailored workshops or management offsite

    By now I know your team and dynamics intimately and as you gather your key leaders in a workshop or offsite to discuss your vision, goals, strategies, key challenges, culture and operations, I’ll help you design and facilitate the most effective and focused ways to get the best possible insights, ideas and breakthroughs.

    We’ll look at everything, from the setting, agenda planning and activities necessary to foster a vulnerable, brave and inspiring environment where each participant is able to engage and perform. You’ll avoid the common trap of leaving a workshop or offsite that felt good but left you and the team with little actual change. Instead you and your team will have full clarity, alignment and ability to implement and execute as you get back to the day-to-day.

  • Focus: Ongoing improvement and management coaching with you and your team(s)

    You took a massive leap, and by now, that vision is your new reality, we’ll celebrate the extraordinary journey you’ve taken to get here and as you settle into to the new normal you begin to ask yourself and your team new questions, identify new challenges and you’re ready to figure out what’s next.

    We’ll get back to the drawing board to review and reflect, expand the vision and dive deeper to adapt to change and maintain focus. I’ll coach you and your key leaders, whilst also engaging the wider teams to bring them to the next level.

What clients say

Through the coaching and workshops I’ve helped leaders and their teams find the answers to some of these questions and then successfully execute with less friction and force.

    • How do I lead myself and the organization through to an IPO?

    • How do we meet the expectations of our investors whilst continuing to try new things to optimise our growth?

    • How do I become the kind of leader that can hold this rapid growth and not run out of energy and motivation?

    • How can we meet our immediate needs and carve out more time for strategic reflection and planning?

    • How can we balance speed and execution while building a thriving and inclusive culture?

    • How do I step back, reflect and be intentional about how I lead?

    • How can I feel less anxious and lonely as I am carrying this huge responsibility?

    • How can I find motivation beyond the deep fear of losing it all?

    • How can I be more calm, focused and confident in the all hands and board meetings?

    • How do we communicate these big changes with the teams so they feel aligned, motivated and able to execute them?

    Workshops & talks

  • Lois - Tech Venture Partner

    Working with Alexandra armed me with insights into how I function at my best, and helped me to hone my ability to detect when I'm not in alignment. It also guided me to adopt a more contemplative and consultative approach to making important decisions, which has resulted in better outcomes. I couldn't recommend Alexandra more highly, not only is she gifted at her craft, she also has a unique positive energy, and I left feeling uplifted, enlightened and with a renewed sense of purpose.

  • Franky - Fintech Founder & CEO

    Alex is excellent. Incredibly engaging, reassuring and encouraging. She gave me the vocabulary to understand myself better, and play to my strengths day to day. Would highly recommend.

  • Livia - Brand and Communications Director

    A perfect balance of science and intangible energetic insight. We were a large group in the workshop and somehow Alexandra treated each individual with singularity and uplifting comprehension. It was fun, it was informative and it has been long lasting.

  • Rachella - Sales & Marketing Director

    A real gamechanger! Alexandra has a beautiful way of listening, empathising and providing gentle guidance that left me feeling excited and inspired to live more in alignment and with a more defined sense of purpose. I was able to reframe the journey ahead and Alex gave me tools to tune into my unique strategy and attract the right opportunities for me.

  • Max - F&B CEO

    The experience was challenging and groundbreaking in equal measure.

    It taught me compassion and forgiveness towards myself and others. During the process I established new routines that helped me be more at home within myself. I now find it easier to be more forgiving and less hard on myself. Looking at my virtues and demons alike made me want to show up authentically and own my full expression, always.
