Organizational Development and JEDI Coach

New York, New York, USA

MALIKA’S COACHING PHILOSOPHY

I employ a "heart-beat training" approach that intertwines philosophy, theology, and mindfulness, focusing on encouraging leaders to engage in self-reflection to enhance their outward actions and perspectives. My coaching is justice-centered, urging leaders to comfortably acknowledge failures and embrace successes. I aim to help clients shift from fear and shame to a state of wonder and curiosity, fostering an environment where growth and learning from life's lessons are prioritized.
