Annalise Koltai is an executive coach who has spent the last decade working with technical leaders — CTOs, CIOs, and CPOs — at Series A through Series D startups and Fortune 500 companies, including Slack, Salesforce, LinkedIn, Workday, Fidelity Investments, and OpenAI. She is a Master Certified Coach (MCC), the highest credential awarded by the International Coaching Federation and held by fewer than 2,500 coaches worldwide.

​

She works with individuals who hold themselves to the highest levels of impact and performance, who understand that the primary barrier between where they are and where they want to be is themselves. For many, technical capability and expertise are beyond question; their next developmental edge is internal. Her approach is intensive and exacting, built for one outcome: leaders who take full ownership of the systems they influence, their leadership, and ultimately themselves. Her coaching process examines the thoughts, beliefs, and frameworks that clients have built their lives around — both professionally and personally — questioning their accuracy and intended impact.

​

Annalise trained as a psychotherapist, which shaped her precision and depth. She is certified in CoActive Coaching, The Leadership Circle 360, and as an iEQ9 Enneagram practitioner, with additional training from The Center for Right Relationship. She helps technical leaders move beyond technical brilliance to develop the presence, strategic vision, and relational capacity that true impact requires.
