Research Project:
Finding the sweet spot where MONEY means MEANING

The objective of this research project is to explore how female entrepreneurs: 
1. find deeper meaning and purpose in their work, 2. build a business that serves them, 3. leading with impact – and also enjoy a personal life that fills them up.

 

IMPORTANT: I personally invite leaders who I’ve been inspired by to particpate in this reserach. If you are seeing this page, then either you know me, or someone has sent you my way. Welcome.


Frequently Asked Questions

Here’s my invitation to you… With your permission, I will ask you a couple of questions about your entrepreneurial journey.

I know your time is precious; a Zoom interview will take no more than 15 minutes. We will schedule a video call at a mutually convenient time.

The research is 100% confidential. I will never share any personal details, thoughts, or experiences expressed by you with anyone else without your permission. 

My practice adheres to the Code of Ethics set forth by the International Coach Federation.

The results will be primarily used to support female entrepreneurs and leaders who participate in leadership accelerators and start-up incubators that I collaborate with, including Future Females, Female Founders, and WomenTech Network. 

The results will also support the creation of online educational content for the International Coach Federation (ICF).

If you happen to know someone who might be able to contribute valuable insights on this topic, I’d love to have a chat with them. Please share their details via email: aleks@aleksandraflis.com


A message from Aleks...

I often get asked, “Why do you do what you do? Why coaching?” The answer is easy: I care.  And I’m obsessed with human potential. That’s why I approach my work as a craft and a calling.

I study coaching, psychology, and neuroscience. I invest in research and learning from the best in the world. But most importantly, I practice being resilient and focused daily and no longer let precious moments slip through my fingers.

As a strategist who worked in digital transformation for ten years, I’ve been where you are. I can tell you that change – where you define what success means and play by your own rules – is not just about “taking action” or “getting from A to B”.

It is about getting good with who you are first. Understanding where your pieces are on the board, deciding the game you really want to play – and creating new possibilities for yourself. 

I coach people who don’t need a coach. Through our work together, my clients have won their first C-Suite role, and launched successful projects and ventures with more confidence, ease and flow. Most importantly, they now lead from a place of growth and fulfilment in all areas of their lives.

My approach works because it is equal parts introspection and action-taking. It is not a fluffy walk, it is about achieving real and deep change.


Here’s what others have said about our thought leadership:

 STEPH - Start-up Mentor, Malaysia
"Aleks such a wonderful and present coach with in-depth experience in the business world. She has an excellent practical approach and is able to stick to the big picture."
 LANA - vp, austria 
"Her observant concise communications supported me to reflect upon resetting my business strategy and goals in turn gaining an enormous amount of confidence with important decision making as I pursue my new business venture"
Beverly - co-founder, qatar 
“Aleks is one of the most inspirational coaches and she has supported me through my entrepreneurial journey"
 thapanee - FOUNDER, UNITED KINGDOM 
"I'd recommend Aleks to anyone looking for someone to confide in and learn from about yourself both personally and professionally."

You don’t need help.

Well, you don’t. With your determination, and commitment to excellence, you can do whatever you set your mind.
You definitely don’t “need” support. 

Now just imagine for a moment, what could be possible if you became available to support. Not because you “need” it.  You don’t. But just because you “want” it. Because you want to have an unbiased conversational space for self-reflection, strategic thinking and insights on what’s next. Because you want to zoom out – above the noise of never-ending demands – to get a new perspective on the gap between where you are and where you want to be.

Whenever you’re ready, here are 3 ways I can help you redefine your life and career – one conversation at a time: 

Every one of us has an Ikigai — a reason for being or a purpose in our life. According to Japanese culture, finding your ikigai is the most honourable and rewarding thing one can do. It’s the key to a fulfilling life.

  • The Ikigai Program would be a completely bespoke experience designed around your individual needs to help you thrive in the career, the job, the lifestyle of your choice.
  • You will be supported one-on-one across the following 5 pillars: VISION, STRATEGY, MINDSET, VALUES and ENERGY.
  • We begin with a half-day Intensive to kick start your journey. Then we continue with regular coaching sessions for 3, 6 or 12 months; we will meet for 1-hour on a biweekly basis, either on the phone or on Zoom. You will also have WhatsApp and Email access to me for extra support in between sessions. I am all about personal attention.

Kaizen is an approach to creating continuous improvement based on the idea that small, ongoing positive changes can reap significant improvements.

  • Do you an important decision to make right now, and you don’t know what direction to go in? Do you have an issue which requires immediate attention?
  • Let’s spend 30 minutes together and you’ll walk away with insight and a concrete action plan for whatever urgent challenge you want to bring to the table.
  • This programme includes 6 or 12 laser-focused sessions that are booked on a flexible basis – whenever you need it!

Kintsugi is a traditional Japanese art uses a precious metal – liquid gold – to bring together the pieces of a broken pottery item and at the same time enhance the breaks. The symbolic beauty of kintsugi is the perfect metaphor for the work we can do during the Intensive session.

  • Do you feel stuck or lost in one specific area of your live?
  • Let’s arrange for a half-day (4h) intensive session and get to the bottom of it.
  • My clients usually work with me for a minimum of three months to a year, so this is a rare opportunity to get a taste of how transformational my coaching is.

Here’s How it Works

My approach: I work differently with everyone, simply because everyone I work with is different.
Your package: Your coaching programme will be a completely bespoke experience designed around your specific goals and timelines. 
Commitment: You and I will work together one-on-one for 3-6 months. Anything less than that is not enough to create lasting change. I will show up fully. I require the same from you. 
Investment:  You will invest time, energy and money in this process. Since my engagements are tailor-made, fees are disclosed after you’ve had an Executive Preview – a 90-min coaching experience. 

The purpose of the Executive Preview is: 

  • To get to know each other and determine whether we’re both excited to work together. 
  • For me to fully understand what your needs and wants are.
  • For you to experience my coaching style and ask any questions you might have.

Contact me at aleks@aleksandraflis.com to request your Executive Preview – a 90-min coaching experience with me offered at no charge. 

What is my coaching good for?

My role as a coach is to create a safe conversational space where you can express your feelings, share your challenges, and work out a plan for your future. I listen to you, ask powerful questions, put your thoughts “on trial” and challenge you to explore different perspectives. 

Here are a few examples of the topics my clients bring to the sessions: 

  • Identiyfying and updating the nitty-gritty beliefs behind your self-sabotaging habits
  • Rediscovering who you are beyond the office; maintaining strong and healthy boundaries
  • Clarifying your current definition of fulfillment and success; refocusing your energies in response to your shifting priorities
  • Creating and sustaining your work-life integration; enjoying greater peace of mind; experiencing the joy and fulfillment 
  • Establishing a new routine for being more productive and effective
  • Connecting to your personal vision based on your values; creating a plan of action for you to execute your vision and increase your impact 
  • Regaining your vitality and energy as you sleep better, no longer reach for fatty foods to curb your stress
  • Becoming fully present with your friends and family as you’re finally able to leave work at work
  • How can best support you?

What is my coaching NOT good for?

Telling you what to do. I am your partner, who supports you in coming up with your own answers and choosing your own destinations.
