About Marlene
My Professional Journey
My career has been a study in performance—what drives it, sustains it, and quietly undermines it.
With experience spanning commercial interior design, entrepreneurship, management consulting, financial analysis, and executive coaching—alongside board roles in the performing arts—I’ve worked at the intersection of business, creativity, and human potential.
This intentionally non-linear path gives me a unique lens on leadership.
I understand both the external demands of performance and the internal pressures leaders carry.
Today, my work is grounded in a simple but powerful insight:
High performance doesn’t come from pushing harder—it comes from clearer thinking.
I don’t teach leaders what to do.
I help them access what they already have — clarity, resilience, sound judgment, and the capacity to lead and perform at their best, even in complexity and change.
My credentials and recognition include:
- Three Principles Practitioner and Educator
- Emotional Freedom Techniques Master Trainer (EFT International)
- Corporate Performance Coach Training and Certification (CPC)
- Clients who received the International Coach Federation Prism Award – ‘for business excellence achieved through coaching’.
- Chartered Financial Analyst (CFA)
- Master of Business Administration (MBA)
- Bachelor of Interior Design (BID)
