How Coaching Helps
Coaching is a transformative process that helps you achieve your goals, develop your skills, and unlock your full potential. It’s a collaborative relationship between you and your coach, where you’ll work together to:
- Identify and set goals
- Explore your values, strengths, and areas for growth
- Develop strategies and action plans
- Practice new skills and behaviours
- Receive feedback and support
Hi, I'm Shalini
I help driven people silence self-doubt, speak with purpose, and lead with heart—because confidence isn’t born, it’s built.
I believe coaching is about creating a safe, empowering space where you are truly heard. I lead with compassion, empathy, and a commitment to helping you unlock the best version of yourself — because when you speak with conviction, the world listens.
Start talking positive to yourself, about yourself. Good work starts from within.
Shalini Misra
You don’t need to have it all figured out to be worthy, to speak up, or to lead. Confidence begins when you give yourself permission to be seen—as you are.

Value Delivered Through Coaching
Through coaching, clients gain the tools to elevate their professional and personal lives. They develop clarity in communication, expressing themselves with confidence, purpose, and impact—whether in boardrooms or one-on-one conversations. They also strengthen their executive presence, showing up with authority and influence in meetings and leadership roles. With a deeper sense of self-trust, they make confident decisions and lead with conviction, eliminating the habit of second-guessing themselves. Coaching helps clients build resilience in high-stakes situations, equipping them with mindset shifts and emotional regulation tools to stay calm and focused under pressure. They also improve their ability to handle conflict, approaching tough conversations with empathy and assertiveness, ultimately fostering trust and collaboration. As a result, clients experience greater career momentum, with the clarity and strategy to pursue promotions, leadership roles, or career pivots with confidence and direction.
How I Can Help!
I create a safe and empowering space where you are truly heard. I lead with compassion, empathy, and a commitment to helping you unlock the best version of yourself.
Personal Growth Coaching
I help you uncover what truly matters — your values, passions, and purpose — and support you in creating a life that feels aligned and fulfilling. Together, we design practical, personalized strategies to help you grow with clarity, confidence, and intention.
Communication Coaching
Speak so you're heard — and understood. This coaching is for professionals who want to express themselves clearly, confidently, and with impact. We'll work together to strengthen your presence, adapt your message to different audiences, and build a communication style that’s both authentic and effective.
Leadership Excellence Coaching
Drawing from my global leadership experience, I support clients in developing core leadership skills — from crafting a clear strategic vision to leading teams with empathy and impact. This coaching helps you show up with presence, communicate effectively, and lead with confidence and clarity.
Purpose-Focused Coaching
If you feel stuck in “just a job” but crave deeper meaning in your work, you’re not alone. My coaching helps you tune out the noise, reconnect with what truly lights you up, and take aligned action toward a life that feels fulfilling—not just functional.
Career Transition Coaching
My coaching supports professionals who want to pivot with purpose—not panic. Together, we uncover what’s next, build the confidence to pursue it, and create a clear, practical roadmap to get there.
Services
Coaching Services – 1:1
In private, one-on-one sessions, I focus entirely on your voice, your challenges and your growth path. We dig deep into mindset, behavioural blocks, leadership presence, and strategies personalized to your role. You get a safe space to be vulnerable, receive immediate feedback, and explore areas you might hesitate to share in group settings. Clients often experience faster breakthroughs, greater accountability, and clearer clarity in pressing decisions.
Coaching Services – Group
Group coaching brings together a cohort of peers who share similar goals. In a structured program, we work through common topics like communication, stakeholder influence, conflict, style awareness while you benefit from hearing others’ insights, sharing experiences, and getting peer support. The shared space broadens perspective, builds accountability, and makes learning more scalable and cost-effective.
Mentoring Services – Procurement Professional
Drawing from two decades in global sourcing and procurement, I mentor procurement leaders and professionals to navigate complexity, build stakeholder influence, and elevate their decision-making. You’ll get strategic perspective, proven frameworks, and behavioral guidance that helps you lead more confidently, resolve conflicts, and lift the credibility of your function within the organization.
Mentoring Services – Program Managers
Program management across product and success demands both precision and emotional agility. As a mentor to program leaders, I help you balance delivery rigor with people-centric leadership, sharpening your stakeholder communication, managing change, and leading cross-functional teams with clarity and resilience. The result: smoother delivery, stronger team alignment, and higher confidence in managing uncertainty.
DISC Style Insights & Workshop
Through my DISC-based assessments and workshops, participants gain fresh insight into how they communicate under stress, what motivates them, and how others perceive them. By revealing these behavioral lenses, teams learn to adapt their style, bridge communication gaps, manage conflict, and build more collaborative environments. Many clients report fewer misunderstandings and faster alignment post-workshops.
Soft Skills Workshops
From conflict management to strategic communication, negotiation, client centricity, collaboration, goal setting, and journaling, these workshops are designed to translate behavioral insight into everyday action. Whether your team needs fresh tools for handling tough conversations or strengthening resilience in client relationships, these sessions help build trust, fluency in influence, and confidence in high-stakes interactions.

Frequently Asked Questions
Each session is a safe, judgment-free space where we explore your challenges, reflect on what's important to you, and co-create practical steps forward. You’ll leave each session with clarity, direction, and renewed confidence.
I coach professionals — especially mid-career individuals and emerging leaders — who want to build authentic confidence, communicate effectively, and lead with empathy. Many of my clients are navigating self-doubt, transitions, or visibility challenges at work.
Coaching is forward-focused and action-oriented. Unlike therapy, it doesn't diagnose or treat mental health conditions. Unlike mentoring, I don’t give advice — I help you find your own best answers through powerful questions and reflection.
I hold certification from an ICF-accredited coaching program and am actively pursuing the International Coaching Federation’s ACC credential. My coaching is grounded in 20+ years of senior leadership experience across global procurement and product organizations, along with an early foundation in education — giving me a well-rounded, professional, and empathetic coaching perspective.
My coaching focuses on confidence-building, effective communication, leadership presence, career clarity, and navigating self-doubt. If you feel stuck or unseen in your professional journey or trying to find your purpose, I can help. You can also book a short call with me if you need someone to assist with making an important decision. We can brainstorm together. 🙂
It depends on your goals, but most clients work with me for 3 to 6 months. This gives us time to make sustainable shifts and track real progress. I offer single sessions too, but packages often provide deeper value.
Absolutely. Everything shared in our sessions stays between us. I follow ICF's strict ethical guidelines to ensure full confidentiality and psychological safety.
