Meet the Faculty

The Intercultural Coaching Academy brings together intercultural research, MCC-level coaching mastery, intercultural competence, team coaching practice, and lived multicultural experience across national, gender, and generational cultures to support coaches working within complex global and organizational environments.

AI is transforming coaching and giving us unprecedented access to knowledge about cultures and cultural differences. Yet information alone is not cultural intelligence. Drawing on more than two decades of cross-cultural experience and research, I believe effective coaching today requires the ability to combine this knowledge with curiosity, cultural humility, relational awareness, and the capacity to navigate human complexity.

The future of coaching will not be shaped by coaching competencies alone, but by our ability to work across cultures, perspectives, and human differences with trust, awareness, and genuine understanding. Through executive and leadership development coaching across five continents, I have come to believe that cultural competence belongs alongside coaching and team coaching as a core competence for coaches working in today’s global environments.
