Tanja Martinez Vazquez

In my professional journey, I've had the privilege of working across diverse industries, including IT and Technology, Healthcare, Medical, Banking and Finance, and even the Restaurant sector. This rich tapestry of experiences has shaped my understanding of organisational dynamics and leadership nuances across various domains. In the fast-paced realm of IT and Technology, I've navigated complex systems and digital landscapes, honing my adaptability and innovation skills. My tenure in the Healthcare sector has deepened my appreciation for empathy and compassion, crucial qualities in nurturing effective leadership. Within the Medical industry, I've encountered the critical intersection of precision and care, where attention to detail and strategic decision-making are paramount. Transitioning to the Banking and Financial sector, I've gained insights into risk management, strategic planning, and financial stewardship. Additionally, my experience in the Restaurant industry has underscored the importance of teamwork, customer service, and operational efficiency in driving success.

In my role, I find immense joy and fulfillment in supporting leaders at every level of the organisational hierarchy, from first-line leaders to those leading other leaders. It's a deeply meaningful endeavor that truly energises me. One aspect of leadership development that resonates particularly strongly with me is guiding individuals through the transition within the leadership pipeline. This phase represents a pivotal moment in a leader's journey, where they must navigate a shift in mindset, behavior, and communication as they embrace new roles and responsibilities.

In my approach to leadership development and coaching, I am guided by a philosophy that emphasises being present, leveraging strengths, and fostering a coaching style that is reflective and inclusive. I believe in the power of presence, which allows me to fully engage with individuals and teams, creating a space where meaningful conversations and insights can unfold. By being fully present in the moment, I can better understand the unique challenges and opportunities that each leader faces. Central to my approach is a focus on strengths. I believe that every individual possesses unique talents and capabilities that, when recognised and nurtured, can drive personal and professional growth. By adopting a strength-based perspective, I help leaders uncover their innate strengths and leverage them to achieve their goals and aspirations.

I like guiding my participants towards action and so I have often been describe me as a facilitator who is warm and present and someone who brings inspiration to our sessions.
