The myth of feedback at the end of an interview
I'm ICF Professional Certified Coach (PCC) working across the leadership pipeline, from early-career professionals to senior leaders, supporting people in navigating complexity and leading with clarity, awareness and impact.
I partner with organizations, universities and consulting firms to design and deliver coaching-based leadership development journeys that strengthen self-awareness, decision-making and relational effectiveness.
My work focuses on helping individuals, group and teams translate insight into action, developing leadership practices that are both effective and sustainable in rapidly evolving contexts.
My approach integrates ontological and systemic coaching with leadership development frameworks and a psychosocioanalytic perspective.
I create reflective spaces where individuals, groups and teams can challenge assumptions, expand their perspective and generate lasting behavioural change.
I bring experience across higher education and corporate environments, designing and facilitating leadership, coaching and career development initiatives.
I am particularly interested in working at the intersection of individual and organizational development, supporting people and systems in unlocking potential, increasing alignment and enabling meaningful, sustainable growth.

I run my first coaching journey with Ginevra. It was extremely insightful. She silently drove me where I needed to go and got the best out of me. I definitely recommend her as coach
Senior Digital Marketing & Corporate Relations at Flying Angels Foundation Onlus
Ginevra walked me through a “conversational” and maieutical process, sometimes not easy at all, which led me to a different way of approaching questions, doubts and fear. Put everithing into discussion, change perspective, always ask -and look- for answers, inside and outside…again and again. She gave me a new instrument. She led me to new ways of thinking, as the beginning of a very profound, ongoing, personal improvement process, opening my mind. So, for sure I recommend her as per my direct experience as coachee, both from a professional and personal point of view. Thank you so much!

HR Student
I had the opportunity to enjoy a coaching programme at the university with Dr. Ginevra Villa. Thanks to this path I rediscovered a great truth: each of us possesses all the skills and talents necessary to stand out, solve daily challenges and continuously improve.
HR Student
It all starts with an initial problem that seems almost insurmountable, but by slowly dissecting it, the coachee can gain such an awareness that leads to reevaluate the initial thinking and downsize the problem itself. Before being coached by Ginevra, I would never have said that a simple conversation could be so positive and constructive in seeing boundaries from a different perspective. Having the opportunity to get coaching allowed me to revise my positions and to be more conscious of my abilities and potential.
HR Student
Through coaching, I gained a lot of awareness. I was able to look at the problem from a different perspective and see my full potential. The coach and coachee both know the destination; the coach's job is to provide the coachee with the tools to design the route by which to reach the coveted destination. Being coached by Ginevra has been like a beautiful journey.
