Meet Your Coach

Svetlana Whitener

Hello,

I am Svetlana Whitener, and I am thrilled to meet you.

One of the great things about the web is that wherever you live around the globe, we can connect. Whatever your needs and wherever you are, I can support you!

I am passionate that every human being on this planet lives in a space in which he or she is vibrant and can be filled with purpose. I believe this is the way we are meant to live, grow, and thrive.

I’m grateful every day for the opportunity to inspire my clients and remind them that they can choose to remain one of the world’s best-kept secrets or become a gift to the world.

I am an expert at coaching leaders on how to accomplish desired outcomes and achieve performance objectives though the use of Emotional Intelligence (EI) assessments, training, and implementation.

I specialize in using EI training to help clients become the absolute best version of themselves with constantly improving self-awareness, self-expression, self-resilience, self-management, and self-motivation, while at the same time growing and mentoring those around them.

My clients include:

  • Executives
  • Mid-to-senior level managers
  • Entrepreneurs
  • Mid-career professionals
  • Anyone interested in developing leadership skills and boosting their emotional intelligence

My ability to be simultaneously vulnerable and fearless models a successful paradigm clients can readily use to obtain desired results as they continue to profit from the heightened EI and other skills they learn with my guidance.

What I Do

I guide the way for clients to move forward to a more successful and satisfying life. As a result of my training and experience, I am particularly interested in how EI, Neuroscience and Positive Psychology can transform the lives and relationships of people looking for an inspiring career, meaning in their lives, a legacy and total fulfillment. Through skillful use of these tools, I have helped hundreds of clients transform their careers and personal relationships.

Just as I have helped my previous clients, I can help you develop your authentic self, live your values, and make a positive impact on your organization and the world.

My Educational and Professional Background

With an MBA and BS in Organizational Development, I spent seven years with a major Russian corporation, starting as an Organizational Development Specialist and rose to become the Vice President. After starting and operating my own business, I left Yekaterinburg for the United States.

My employer for most of the 25+ years I have been in the United States was the oldest coaching school in the world – The Coaches Training Institute (CTI) or Co-Active in San Rafael, California. After starting at CTI as the Accounting and HR Manager, I rose to Director of Human Resources, reaching one career milestone after another.

I have TEN coaching certifications. Also, I am a Master Certified Coach (MCC) and Certified EI Executive Coach (EQCC) specializing in Emotional Intelligence and Career Development. I have 25+ years of corporate leadership experience and 20+ years of personal development experience.

It doesn’t matter where you live on the planet, I’ll support you!

What you need to do now is to ask yourself a few simple questions:

  • How much do I know about my motivators and ideal career?
  • What am I concerned about in my relationship?
  • Is there anything currently in my life that does not suit my life purpose and prevents me from sharing my own talents with the world?
  • How confident am I about myself and my ability to bring forth what I am longing for?
APA Approved Sponsor Take a powerful step and commit to having an Executive Coach. The choice is between comfortably doing nothing and maintaining the status quo, or playing courageously and contacting me. You can’t change the beginning of the game; it started a long time ago. However, you can accomplish a glorious game change by utilizing all your powers of discernment and passion to fulfill your desires and create a more meaningful career, rewarding relationship and purposeful life. Be courageous and trust yourself! Use your Executive Coach for guidance and support to press on toward the goals of your new game!

"I have chosen to focus on Emotional Intelligence (EI) coaching because I see EI as the most consistent and effective gateway to authentic being. An authentic, powerful and creative self is the foundation for everything else in life. If we get that part right, the rest simply falls into place."
