About
Cynthia Iglesias Guven

Executive | Leadership | Career | Cross-Cultural Coach
Former U.S. Diplomat | ICF-ACC Certified Coach | Emotional Intelligence Practitioner

Hi, I am Cynthia, a globally experienced coach and former senior U.S. diplomat with over 25 years of international leadership, team-building, and strategic influence. As a Hispanic woman in a male dominated field, I rose to the diplomatic rank of Minister Counselor—the civilian equivalent of a two-star general. I’ve spent my career navigating systems, cultures, and leadership landscapes not designed for me. Today, I bring that lived wisdom to individuals and organizations ready to grow with intention, courage, and clarity.

I am an ICF Associate Certified Coach and specialize in Career, Executive, Leadership, and Cross-cultural coaching, combining goal-focused and client-centered approaches. Our sessions will be guided by what matters most to you. We will build a partnership based on honesty and openness as we explore your values, work through challenges, and find new opportunities. My team and I are ready to help you grow. We will encourage you to try new approaches and take small, manageable steps toward your unique goals, helping you move closer to a more meaningful and fulfilling career. Whether you are an individual, part of a group, or a team, we are here to support you in finding the professional satisfaction you seek.

What We Do — and Why We are Different

Executive Coaching

We help senior leaders become stronger strategic thinkers, improve employee engagement and morale, increase retention, and plan for successful leadership succession.

Why it works: I spent over a decade as a senior executive myself, leading large, international teams and tackling these very challenges firsthand.

Leadership Coaching

Whether you’re a new manager or aspiring to the executive suite, we support leaders at every level to develop self-awareness, emotional intelligence, and an authentic leadership presence.

Why it works: I’ve created and delivered leadership training across cultures and built high-performing teams by helping leaders grow through feedback, emotional intelligence, and communication mastery.

Career Coaching

We guide individuals through career transitions—whether starting out, changing direction, seeking promotion, or navigating life after retirement.

Why it works: As a mentor and senior leader, I’ve helped professionals find clarity, take action, and move toward meaningful career goals aligned with their values.

Cross-Cultural Coaching

We coach global professionals and multicultural teams to communicate effectively, navigate cultural dynamics, and thrive in international or diverse work environments.

Why it works: As a U.S. diplomat for over two decades, I lived and worked in Turkey, Egypt, the U.K., Belgium, the EU, and their neighboring countries. I understand firsthand the power—and challenges—of working across cultures.

Why Work With Me?

I bring a rare blend of real-world executive experience, global cultural intelligence, empathy, and deep coaching expertise. I’m ICF-ACC certified, trained in emotional intelligence, and committed to helping clients unlock their full potential.

Let’s work together to elevate your confidence, align work with your values, and grow with impact.
