Coaches
Natania Malin Gazek
(they/them)
-
Natania (they/them) specializes in coaching people through tricky inflection points in their lives and careers. They’ve helped clients across sectors – from small non-profits to Fortune 500 companies – transform their working relationships, career paths, and holistic impacts to be more personally fulfilling and aligned with their values.
Rather than coming in with a pre-determined script, Natania customizes their approach to coaching based on what each client needs, pulling from a variety of evidence-based tools. When describing their coaching experiences with Natania, past clients say things like, “Natania was always present, engaged, prepared, and energized. They jumped into tough topics readily. I always looked forward to our sessions.” And, “From our first conversation, Natania took time to listen and understand, rather than trying to push anything at me. I’m so proud of the impact I’ve had as a result of our work, and the confidence I’ve developed.”
Formally, Natania’s approach to coaching is informed by a BA in Sociology from Vassar College and an MBA in Organizational Behavior from the Yale School of Management, as well as ongoing education to stay current with best practices in the field. As a white, diasporic Jewish, queer person with invisible disabilities, Natania loves getting to know the multitudes that each of their clients contain -- each of us holding identities that experience both privilege and marginalization that impact our lives and work.
With a keen eye for how systemic oppression shapes their clients' interpersonal dynamics in the workplace, Natania also finds it important to maintain a robust political life outside of their professional work – and to understand, and help their clients grapple with, where helpful, the limits of what can be accomplished in each realm. They also find it critical to maintain healthy doses of joy and rest in their routines. Their current joyful routines include babysitting their niblings (a gender neutral term for the children of one’s chosen and biological siblings), teaching themself how to ice skate at their local outdoor rink, and sampling new Trader Joe’s seasonal gummy candies.
