Now here’s a fun episode - with executive coach Maya Gudka, who has a rich background at prestigious firms like Goldman Sachs and KPMG. She talks to us about her surprising journey from economics to executive coaching.
Maya sheds light on the profound impact of personal vision work that she has crafted through a blend of hard-earned experience coupled with academic approach to blending psychology, coaching, and her insider experience of the world of finance executives.
We explore relationship-building, organizational intelligence, and the significance of Hogan personality assessments, as Maya breaks down her coaching approach into three core pillars: personal vision, relational capital, and energetics, across the areas of well-being and career progression.
Get ready to explore the SCARF model for navigating uncertainties in a VUCA world, Maya's embrace of vulnerability and authenticity, and her fresh take on salary negotiation and stakeholder mapping. Plus, we'll unpack the nuances of coaching styles and the vital role of inner work and supervision for coaches.
Maya's wisdom extends beyond coaching into the multi-dimensional aspects of well-being and the changing landscape of job descriptions—she even provides free resources for those keen to learn more.
Prepare to be inspired as we discuss the raw power of not knowing, the importance of vulnerability in leadership and parenting, and the cascade effect of coaching on organizational communication.
