Welcome to the 55th Episode of the #100MasterCoaches​ Show. In this episode, Mel interviews Laura Fierro Evans, MCC from Mexico.

Laura contributes to building cultures in which all the voices of a system are listened to and are being listened; in which the wills align towards achieving a common goal, and collaboration and caring for each other constitutes the prevailing spirit.

She is the founder of Hagakure Leadership and Coaching, a company that supports leaders in transforming their organizational cultures through building collective intelligence. She promotes that leaders move from “Ego-centric to Eco-centric” approaches, as described by Otto Scharmer in his U-Theory.

She helps leaders in two ways: first, to gain a view of the whole system they work in so they can reconnect to their purpose, and second, to discover their incredible inner richness through having a dialogue with their inner "voices" or "selves" that allow them to become leaders of their own inner team.

Laura has coached hundreds of officials from different United Nations Agencies since 2009 across the globe and is currently training Regional Senior Leaders of the World Health Organization (WHO) in Coaching Competencies for the Health Transformation in Africa.

She is also an author of two books: “𝑪𝒐𝒂𝒄𝒉𝒊𝒏𝒈 𝑳𝒆𝒂𝒅𝒆𝒓𝒔: 𝑳𝒆𝒗𝒆𝒓𝒂𝒈𝒆 𝒕𝒉𝒆 𝒑𝒐𝒘𝒆𝒓 𝒐𝒇 𝒚𝒐𝒖𝒓 𝒊𝒏𝒏𝒆𝒓 𝒗𝒐𝒊𝒄𝒆𝒔 𝒕𝒐 𝒃𝒆𝒄𝒐𝒎𝒆 𝒂 𝒍𝒆𝒂𝒅𝒆𝒓” and “𝑻𝒉𝒆 𝑾𝒂𝒓𝒓𝒊𝒐𝒓 𝑺𝒕𝒚𝒍𝒆𝒔”.

Welcome to the 54th Episode of the #100MasterCoaches​ Show. In this episode, Mel interviews Christine Sachs.

Christine comes to coaching with professional experience in the finance, advertising, and higher education industries. Most recently, she was the Director of Major Gifts for the University of Oxford in North America. Her role there trained Christine in cultural awareness and leadership amidst complex organizations.

The client profile that Christine most frequently works with is highly educated and successful in their roles. Her clients tend to hold C-Suite or near C-Suite positions. Christine likes to joke that her clients don’t believe in coaching until they work with her. Trained in ontological coaching, she provides a fresh perspective and highlights blind spots that corporate experience may not reveal. Many of Christine’s clients work in high-growth technology, entertainment, and finance.

In 2016, Christine attained the credential of Master Certified Coach from the International Coach Federation. Less than 4% of coaches worldwide hold this credential. Additionally, she has a master’s degree in Literature from Washington University. Her passion and commitment to quality coaching have led Christine to become a Senior Training Leader with Accomplishment Coaching, a 20-year-old accredited coach training program based out of San Diego, CA.

Welcome to the 50th Episode of the #100MasterCoaches​ Show. In this episode, Mel interviews Ram S. Ramanathan MCC.

Ram is an accredited master coach and trainer with the International Coach Federation (ICF), European Mentoring & Coaching Council (EMCC), and the Center for Credentialing Education (CCE). He is also a certified coach supervisor and mentor.

Coacharya, which Ram co-founded with son Pranav in 2013, won the inaugural global coach award from EMCC in 2014, and again in 2019 with Magda Walczak as CEO. Coacharya is now one of the largest coaching and coach training institutions outside North America, having graduated over 2000 coaches, of whom 50 are MCC credentialed master coaches.

Ram as a CEO helped build a multibillion $$ conglomerate in South East Asia in the Nineties. Ram was a serial entrepreneur, angel investor, and government consultant in later years before he moved into executive leadership coaching.

Ram’s passion for Hindu Buddhist spirituality and experience in the monastic path has led to Coacharya’s focus on integrating Eastern wisdom with Western science to help people in their transformational leadership journey that he terms ‘Mindless Barefoot Leadership’.

Ram has written over 30 books on spirituality and leadership. Ram’s coaching focus is on leadership and systemic transformation. He believes that the first question that an organization needs to ask itself is “How the organization, as well as the individual (and the team the individual is a part of), would benefit from coaching, and how these benefits would be evidenced?” Without an answer to this question, no coaching can be effective.

Ram and his wife of over 40 years are Singapore citizens with permanent residence in Bangalore, India with their dog, with annual sojourns in the USA where their children, grandchildren, and dogs live.
