Individuals and Organizations to Thrive.

Executive, Entrepreneur, & Team Transformation

MichelleClaffey_BrandingPhotoshoot2_ForWebsite-6.jpg

Hi! I'm Michelle.

I'm an experienced coach and facilitator who specializes in Relational Leadership and designs transformative experiences for leaders and teams to thrive! I encourage authenticity, creativity, and connection while supporting others in leveraging their unique gifts, revealing their blind spots, amplifying inspiring voices, clarifying bolder visions, and boosting individual and collective impact. With a pharmaceutical leadership background and advanced coaching certifications, I partner with executives, entrepreneurs, individuals, and teams to promote sustainable transformation through self-discovery, relational and emotional awareness, and high-performance teaming to propel their businesses and missions forward. Along with one-on-one coaching, I enjoy guiding individuals and groups, through powerful in-person learning experiences, including options for nature and equine sessions. Whether through virtual coaching, experiential workshops, or Gestalt equine coaching, I assist clients in building trust, deepening connections, facing conflict, and driving business impact by cultivating relational and emotional awareness, a grounded, confident presence, and an authentic and inspiring leadership voice and vision. And, to have fun while doing it!

Relational Leadership is...
leading, so that others want to follow, with consistency and dependability from a grounded place of maturity, authenticity, and connection. This involves leading with both structure and kindness and developing emotional and relational awareness and capabilities on the level required for authentic, inspiring, confident, courageous, and powerful leadership and teaming.  True emotional and relational awareness grows from getting out of your head, connecting with your whole being (physically, emotionally, energetically, and spiritually), returning to the core of who you are and who you are becoming, and aligning your thinking, feeling, and acting with your intellect, emotions, instincts, and intuition. 

Relational Leadership Core Tenets:

  • Leading so others want to follow to achieve business deliverables and mission.  

  • Relationally effective leaders lead with both Structure & Kindness.

  • Everyone wants to feel Seen, Heard, Understood, Valued, and Protected.

V3 Leadership Experience WIth Michelle Claffey
2025 Dates Announced!!

V3 LEADERSHIP

EXPERIENCE

Amplify Your Leadership Voice, Vision, & Visibility

October 20th to 23rd, 2025

Leadership Voice & Visibilty

I want you to know that our time together had such a huge impact on me and I refer back to our discussions consistently.  I took on a new team and while it has been challenging at times, I have been able to better reflect on and deal with those challenges because of the time I had with you and what I learned about myself.

- Venture Manager

Michelle has helped me develop plenty of tactical ideas that enable me to better approach day-to-day challenging situations. But more importantly, and what I don’t thing would have been as possible for me with a different coach, is that somehow Michelle has trained me to ask deep questions of myself, so that I can get at the very foundation of what changes will help me be more effective.

- Head of Credit Operations, Investment Research Firm

Thanks again for all work you have done with me since last June.  To say you have been instrumental in helping me out would be an understatement.  You are such a great coach…patient, approachable, knowledgeable, attentive.  You also care which helps out so much.  I have experienced other consultants and they have not come close to the impact you have given me and our team.

- SVP, Insurance Brokerage
