I have been trained at J&J in their methodology for creating high-performing teams (Curphy Solutions model).

The best part about the methodology is that it is intended to train teams to develop the skills to be self-monitoring and correcting. This creates empowerment for those I coach. You are not depending on me for answers. You are developed to understand the issues unique for your teams and the tools that would be help address challenges.

Hi There! My name is Vernette Daniel and I am an engineer turned Human Resources executive with 26+ years of experience working for Fortune 500 companies across multiple industries, functional areas and geographies. I formally found my way into the world of HR 11 years ago, but a consistent theme throughout my career has been my passion and ability for helping people and organizations connect the dots that don’t always seem obvious and create realistic roadmaps for desired outcomes. I am a high-achieving, Caribbean-born woman of color who is first in my family to get to the executive level in corporate America. While my work ethic and values have played a major role in my success, they weren’t enough to save me from complete burnout post-pandemic when the demands of senior leadership and “adulting” took their toll. It was then that I was introduced to the power of coaching. It has proven invaluable in helping me reimagine and become the type of executive, leader and overall human I want to be in the world. Now, I bring the totality of these experiences with me as I embark on the exciting new journey of becoming an ICF (International Coaching Federation) certified coach. I am passionate about helping others tap into the infinite resources they possess to unlock their next level of personal and professional development. Whether you're looking to refine your leadership skills, navigate complex organizational dynamics or process a challenging career transition, I'm here to support you. Let's connect and take your leadership journey to the next level! Key areas of focus include, but are not limited to: leadership effectiveness career clarity & transitions early career navigation burnout prevention/recovery imposter syndrome work/life integration

I help tech leaders and executives lead through transformation - whether that's navigating AI's impact on their organization, stepping into bigger roles, or rebuilding after burnout. I've been where my clients are. For 15 years, I led international teams at Google and Pinterest across Europe and Latin America, managing $215M+ portfolios and building teams through high-pressure, high-visibility environments. I know what it takes to lead in complex, matrixed organizations - and I know what can cost. Now I bring that operational depth to coaching. I'm a Co-Active Certified Coach (CPCC), ICF-credentialed (ACC), and NLP Master Practitioner. I work with leaders at highly innovative companies like DeepMind, LinkedIn, and Reddit, and I serve as CFO and Board Trustee at artsdepot in London. I also bring a neurodivergent-informed lens to leadership. I understand how to leverage cognitive diversity, design sustainable energy management practices, and help leaders work with their wiring rather than against it. This perspective is increasingly valuable as AI transforms how we work — the human skills that matter most often come from thinking differently. My clients come to me when they're ready for an honest, strategic partnership. I'm direct, structured, and calm under pressure as well as highly intuitive. If you're navigating a career pivot, stepping up to executive leadership, or trying to lead sustainably without burning out, let's talk.
