Executive Coach in Pacific Palisades

Pacific Palisades sends most of its working population down the coast or over the hill into Santa Monica, Century City, and the studios. Coaching conversations here often start with a transition question rather than a performance one: what the next stage of a career should look like, or whether to keep doing this at all.

Career transitions at senior level

Senior transitions are rarely straightforward, because the obvious next role is often just more of the current one. People arrive wanting to decide between a bigger version of what they have, something entirely different, or building their own thing, and they have usually been circling it for a year.

Decision-making coaching gives that a structure, which mostly means separating the decision from the anxiety attached to it.

Leading after a long run in one place

Leaders with fifteen or twenty years in one organisation carry deep context and, frequently, habits nobody has challenged in a decade. The feedback slows down as seniority increases, which is precisely when it becomes most valuable.

Self-awareness work and structured feedback tend to surface things that long tenure had quietly buried.

What sessions cover

Executive coaching for senior leaders, business coaching for owners, and planning for what holds afterwards. Free leadership assessment to start.

Common questions

Is there an executive coach near Pacific Palisades?

Yes. Novator Coaching serves Pacific Palisades from its Marina del Rey office, about 20 minutes down the coast. Samira Saberi is ICF PCC certified with 15+ years of business experience. Sessions in person or over Zoom.

Can coaching help me decide whether to change roles?

Yes, and it is a common reason to start. Coaching does not tell you what to choose. It makes the decision clearer by separating what you actually want from what you think you should want, which is usually where these decisions get stuck.
