Profile

Who is Melissa Schmidiger?

Melissa Schmidiger is a global executive coach and transitions advisor for senior leaders. She works with Directors, VPs and C-suite executives navigating career inflection points: redundancy, reinvention, a step up into a bigger role, or the move from corporate to independent. Her clients span North America, Southeast Asia, and the UK/Europe.

Before coaching, she spent more than thirty years inside some of the world's most demanding organisations, McKinsey, Credit Suisse, Singtel and Ayala Land, as a global marketing, insight and innovation leader who led both teams and businesses. She is an ESOMAR Insight 250 honoree. That insider vantage point, knowing how senior careers are actually decided, is the foundation of her practice.
