Welcome to my profile! With over 23 years of leadership experience in the health and non-profit sectors, I am passionate about empowering executives to reach their full potential. As a Certified Professional Co-Active Coach (CPCC) and Associate Certified Coach (ACC) with the International Coaching Federation, I have successfully guided over 100 managers and C-level executives across various industries. My coaching approach is enriched by my background in social work and expertise in tools like CliftonStrengths and DiSC, which I use to foster leadership development and navigate complex professional challenges. Let's connect and explore how I can support your journey to achieving your goals!

I'm Dr. Priya Nalkur, President of the RoundTable Institute and an executive coach with 20+ years of experience helping leaders lead with clarity, courage, and inclusion. I work with executives, partners, and rising stars who are navigating complex interpersonal dynamics, career inflection points, or the challenges of leadership in today’s evolving workplace. With a Harvard doctorate in psychology, multiple coaching certifications accumulated over 15 years, and a global team of coaches behind me, I help clients uncover blind spots, set boundaries, navigate power and conflict, and lead from a place of integrity and impact. I’ve coached leaders across industries and around the world, and I bring a powerful mix of emotional intelligence, strategic insight, and deep respect for who you are and who you're becoming. Let's get to work.

Using the Hudson Institute’s Leadership Coaching Model, I have a focused approach to help you assess your leadership strengths, identify barriers to your growth, and navigate your future options in a clear and focused way to get to the career fulfillment you are looking for. I will work to design a unique 3 to 6-month coaching program that results in setting and achieving goals you previously thought were out of reach. Some of the areas I have helped clients with include increasing your leadership confidence, overcoming obstacles to your development, burnout and discovering greater work/life integration, onboarding successfully into a new leadership role, and navigating a major career change with support and guidance.

I spent over 23 years leading and coaching teams in the technology industry, most recently at Salesforce, one of the world’s top Technology Fortune 500 companies. I know firsthand how tough leadership can be: the sleepless nights before big decisions, the pressure to perform without burning out your team, and the weight of leading through change. Now, as an ICF-certified executive coach, I help leaders and founders navigate those same challenges with clarity and confidence. My clients learn to make hard decisions without losing empathy, communicate with influence, and build high-performing teams that thrive even in uncertainty. They rediscover purpose, elevate their leadership presence, and lead with more calm, focus, and joy. My coaching is direct but deeply human, grounded in real-world executive experience, emotional intelligence, and evidence-based practice. If you’re ready to lead with authenticity, courage, and lasting impact, I’ll help you get there.

I have worked with executives of every industry - healthcare, construction, finance, software/IT and more - in tackling their daily challenges and strategic goals. My goal is to heighten their presence, influence and eminence within their company, elevating them to their fullest potential. The companies and challenges have been high stakes, with millions if not more on the line, spanning multiple countries and continents, facing high uncertainty and yet reaching promising results. I endeavor to help each client find their voice and footing in their career and am proud to say I have seen multiple clients gain promotions (e.g. VP-SVP) after working with me.

I've been advising executives since I started my career at McKinsey nearly 15 years ago. Since, I’ve spent the last several years helping founders, operators, and teams navigate the moments in their careers where clarity matters most. My background spans strategy, operations, and product leadership across high-growth startups and technology-driven companies. I’ve stepped into fractional executive roles, built AI-powered tools, guided teams through complex decisions, and supported leaders as they scaled themselves and their organizations. Along the way, I’ve become the person companies call when something feels messy, overwhelming, or mission-critical. I coach because leaders deserve a space where they can think clearly, make confident decisions, and grow without losing themselves in the process. My approach is grounded, direct, and supportive. I help you see blind spots, simplify complexity, and move forward with a plan you can trust. Whether you’re navigating a transition, expanding your role, or building something from scratch, I’m here to give you honest guidance and practical tools that create real momentum.

I’ve spent over two decades operating inside high-growth tech companies—managing teams, advising execs, and leading through complexity. I’ve coached VPs, Directors, and emerging leaders at companies like LinkedIn, Microsoft, Lyft, and Hillspire (Eric Schmidt’s family office), helping them increase their influence, lead through ambiguity, and scale themselves as their scope grows. I’m ICF-certified, trained through the Center for Executive Coaching, and combine that rigor with firsthand operator experience. My coaching is grounded in business realities, not fluff and tuned for the unique pressures of leading in tech. I work with clients on everything from strategic thinking and stakeholder alignment to imposter syndrome and exec presence. If you’re navigating growth, preparing for a bigger role, or just need a trusted sounding board, I’ve been in your shoes, and I coach from that place.

Hi there, I'm Brian. I've been trained at the Center for Executive Coaching, and have worked with leaders at every level to help them create culture, define and implement strategic initiatives, and take consistent action to become and achieve. You have all the information you could ever want at your fingertips; what you likely need to get to the next level is a partner outside your organization to help you tactically apply what you already know. That's where I come in. As a leader, you are the message. So what do the people around you hear? I work with you on your pressing issues so that you send the message you want to send by refining who you are. My approach is centered around asking powerful questions that reveal truths and help you navigate your unique challenges. In addition to my private practice, I have institutional experience from my roles at Crumbl Cookies and at The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints in preparing individuals for strategic roles in a global context. Let's work together to elevate your leadership potential and drive success in your career. Reach out to start your journey today!

As a coach with over 25 years of experience in executive search and leadership advisory across multiple industries and regions, I bring a wealth of knowledge in identifying and nurturing top talent at the highest levels of leadership. My expertise has been shaped through working globally with Private Equity-backed firms, large corporations, and high-growth companies, where I’ve helped leaders navigate complex challenges and unlock their potential for success. I have personally led numerous board-level placements and talent strategies, giving me firsthand insight into the qualities and skills that drive effective leadership. My approach is grounded in both strategic thinking and a deep understanding of human motivation, enabling me to guide clients through practical solutions that lead to lasting results. Additionally, my international experience, combined with fluency in five languages, has given me a unique perspective on leadership in a global context. I’m also committed to ethical leadership, having served as a Justice of the Peace and as a board member for a social mobility charity, roles that reinforce the importance of fairness, integrity, and responsibility—values I integrate into my coaching. Through my work, I’ve developed a strong network of industry specialists and a deep understanding of the challenges that leaders face today, making me well-equipped to support and coach individuals who are striving for personal and professional growth.
