Gladys

Leadership Consultant & Executive Coach

A session with me is like…
A supportive and empowering partnership—focused on your goals, your pace, and helping you lead with confidence and purpose.

One life experience that helps me relate to my clients is…
Growing up as an African American and Japanese woman in South Korea, which taught me what it feels like to not quite fit in and fueled my passion for embracing individual differences, helping others bring their whole selves to the table, and creating inclusive environments with real and lasting impact.

Three things I want clients to feel post-session are…
Confident, empowered, and resilient.

Past experience that qualifies me for this role is…
25+ years in management consulting, leadership development, and executive coaching, partnering with over 350 leaders to address challenges, uncover blind spots, and improve performance.

My relevant credentials are…
- MBA, Graziadio School of Business (Pepperdine University)
- BA in Psychology (University of California, Berkeley)
- Professional Certified Coach (PCC) with the International Coaching Federation (ICF)
- Gallup-Certified Strengths Coach
- Certified Executive Coach
- Certified Career Coach
- Certified Six Sigma Black Belt (CSSBB)
- Stanford Certified Project Manager (SCPM)
- DISC Certified Practitioner
- Certified Women and Minority Business Enterprise
- Member of Women in Health Administration
- Member of the International Coaching Federation

My coaching style is centered on you—your goals, your pace, and your growth. I work with women who are ready to create meaningful change, offering the guidance, accountability, and partnership needed along the way. I believe being a woman is a powerful force—rooted in strength, love, and resilience—and despite the challenges we face, we continue to rise. My role is to stand beside you on that journey, supporting you every step as you step more fully into your potential.
