Alina Florea is an architect of change. She works with entrepreneurs, senior executives and high potential emerging leaders in EU based organisations, to accelerate and enhance their leadership growth and be their best at work, life and in their World. 

Alina’s clients include decision makers and leaders from engineering, marine, oil & gas, IT to biochemistry, finance, academia and research.

Her passion and ambition to help advance professional coaching see her as an active volunteer with the International Coach Federation (ICF), Professional Women Network (PWN) and GRASP (Global Romanian Society of Young Professionals).

Business Background, Experience and Skills

Alina's success and contribution are anchored in her strong senior management background, and her previous involvement at strategic organizational level in designing the organizational operations and building organizational capabilities, systems and procedures, creating a culture of performance and collaboration, and developing senior, middle management and first line leaders capable of working as an effective in-sync team. 

Drawing from both her former professional knowledge (MSc, MBA, PMP) and her senior management experience (20+ years), since 2018, Alina embraced an executive coaching career. She is an accredited ICF coach (PCC), and has completed over 1300 hours of executive leadership and management coaching.

She understands the complexities high achieving leaders face in working with their own expectations, balancing short and long-term outcomes, corporate and local needs, and present and future orientations in a fast-changing environment. 

Focused on simple, practical strategies that deliver tangible outcomes, she is known for creating powerful awareness for being a strong change catalyst for her individual or organizational clients, for modeling empathy, authenticity and courage in the relationship with her clients. 

She meets her clients in their own reality. Depending on her client's particular need, she blends her coaching with her own vast collection of management case studies, with customized training or with tools such as coaching constellations or positive intelligence.

Approach

Alina spends time understanding organisational context, and organizational and individual needs, then partners with individual leaders and teams to enhance and accelerate their leadership growth, impact and potential while staying true to who they are.

She builds trust quickly. While showing empathy and encouragement, she challenges her clients to step out of their automatic reactions or zone of familiarity and comfort, to explore deeply how their habits, assumptions and beliefs impact themselves and others. Each coaching conversation is a space of awareness and learning for the clients, brings focus and clarity over the existing gap, invites client's discovery and learning, and designs strong accountability. 

Alina supports her clients to experiment with more helpful strategies, extend those that work for them and embed these into their life, work and world. Accelerated and sustained development or transformation happens as a result. Ultimately, these individuals and leadership teams empower others towards high contribution and performance.
