Ethos

Brava Leaders believes a lot of workplace and community friction is driven by our current lack of skills for managing power, trade-offs, conflict, and the bias of misogyny and anti-Blackness across multiracial/multicultural communities.

“I was skeptical of executive coaching because I have tried many coaches throughout my career, and all had been pretty unhelpful -- until Karla. Karla has transformed what support and wellness looks like for me as a leader, as well as for my organization as a whole. I can bring any challenge to her and she will have excellent perspective, informed by both her lived experience as well as intellectual grounding. Karla is instrumental to us walking our talk; her expertise in helping organizations develop systems and cultures that reliably name, distribute, share, and build power has enabled our organization to truly live into our values in a human and accountable way. Working with her is one of the best investments we've ever made as an organization.”

“Working with Karla has been an absolute pleasure and I have been impressed with the depth of knowledge and expertise she brings to each conversation. From the moment we began, it was clear Karla has a keen eye for identifying patterns and trends that others might miss. Her coaching style is supportive, challenging, and results-oriented. Karla's ability to spot patterns, analyze trade-offs, and develop those skills in others, has been instrumental in building my leadership.
