Welcome to GlaGar Coaching & Consulting!

Specializes in supporting individuals and organizations to embrace meaningful change by building trust and cultivating open dialogue.

About me…

Hello! My name is Gladys Garcia Neroda. I am the owner and principal consultant at GlaGar Coaching & Consulting. I am a certified Integral Coach® and an organizational consultant. My focus is working with individuals and organizations to create courageous and meaningful change. I do this by offering individual coaching, facilitating organizational culture/DEI engagements, and leading complex project management adventures.

For almost 20 years, I worked in the non-profit and social services sectors. I have held several non-profit executive roles where I managed teams, organizational DEI initiatives, and strategic planning processes. Additionally, I have experience with technology design/implementation, talent management, program evaluation, workforce development, and media relations.

My leadership philosophy centers on building trust by engaging in deep dialogue and honoring individual contributions and unique viewpoints.

Services

Integral Coaching

Integral coaching invites us to examine and go beyond our habitual patterns of thinking and actions while honoring the fullness and complexity of the different roles we engage in. I work with individuals to identify their learning and growth edges so they can consciously overcome habits preventing them from reaching personal and professional goals.

Coaching plans are tailored to each person. Here are a few examples of possible focus areas:

  • Developing healthy leadership and management skills

  • Overcoming workplace challenges

  • Integrating DEI into personal and professional life

  • Effectively setting and maintaining boundaries

  • Remaining grounded in chaotic environments

Career Coaching

Mastering how to navigate job search and interviewing has the potential to change the trajectory of one’s life. My clients learn to skillfully articulate their goals, accomplishments, and growth areas while remaining true to their core values and career aspirations.

Each coaching engagement is custom designed to meet the needs of individual clients, but possible topics are:

  • Articulating next professional milestones

  • Customizing resumes and cover letters around career goals

  • Mastering the interview by speaking from a place of truth and centered presence

  • Negotiating salary upon receiving job offers

Organizational Development

grounded in the principles of Diversity, Equity, Inclusion

In partnership with an experienced team of facilitators and DEI experts, I work with organizations ready to take the important step of examining how race, power, and privilege affect their structures, systems, and people. Our DEI engagements meet organizations where they are now and help them create impactful and sustainable change.

DEI engagements are tailored to the needs of each organization. DEI projects often include:

  • Assessing existing practices, policies, and staff comfort with DEI issues

  • Leading in-person or virtual DEI staff training sessions

  • Facilitating staff and/or board team-building retreats

Complex Project Management

Sometimes organizations need help with the countless details of special projects outside the scope of regular business activities. I have years of experience managing teams, departments, and multi-year technology development projects. My strength is tracking all the small details while never losing sight of the big picture.

Some of my past projects include leading:

  • Salesforce community builds from scope design to roll-out

  • Partnership explorations between organizations

  • Organizational change management processes
