Your Strategic Growth Partner

Real transformation. Zero fluff. High-impact leadership moves that stick

I’m Maria Wandelstam - global L&D executive, a capability strategist and executive coach. I’ve led in complexity, scaled capability globally and built high-performing teams from the inside out. Now I help ambitious leaders do the same - fast.

When we work together, expect to:

Think Like a Strategic Leader
Get out of the weeds. Lead with precision, influence, and clarity. Shape the agenda instead of reacting to it.

Lead with Presence + Purpose
Own every room. Cut through the noise. Speak so people stop, listen, and follow.

Drive Impact - Not Just Activity
Shift from busy to bold. Make decisions that move the needle - for your team, your career, and the business.

This isn’t just coaching. It’s a capability upgrade, custom-built around you.

How I Work:

Precision Coaching for Real Leaders

This is not a one-size-fits-all approach. It’s leadership transformation, designed like a product and built to deliver results.

Whether you’re:

Stepping into your first big leadership role
Leading transformation under pressure
Rebuilding after a layoff or career curveball

- I meet you where you are, then take you where you need to go.

Why clients choose me:

I’ve Been in Your Chair
27+ years in corporate. I get the pressure, the politics, the pace and how to win in that world.

I Navigate Complexity Like a Map
From exec influence to tricky stakeholders, I help you move with clarity, not confusion.

I Turn Coaching into Results
Confidence, capability, clarity and visible business impact. You’ll feel the shift. So will everyone else.

If you’re ready to go from competent to unforgettable - let’s work.
