Daphna Horowitz, executive coach

The CEO Coach

You’re getting results.
But at what cost?

I work with leaders who feel alone under the weight of responsibility.

As a trusted thinking partner, I help you put some of that weight down, gain clarity and lead without sacrificing the rest of your life.

The Work Problem is Often Only the Doorway.

You may arrive with a team problem, difficult decision or recurring conflict. Underneath it is often something more personal: the pressure you carry, the way it changes you and the price being paid outside work.

What brings you here

What it is really costing

You are always mentally on call. Family time is interrupted, rest never feels complete and even when you are present, part of you is still carrying the business.

The Work Beneath the Work

We address the live business challenge, uncover what may be keeping it in place and turn that insight into practical change.

What is happening in the business.

What you may not be seeing.

The assumptions and stories influencing your response.

The patterns that keep repeating.

The conversation, decision or change you may be avoiding.

What the situation requires from you now.

What Changes?

The work is not only about solving the problem in front of you.

Decide with clarity

See the real issue and make sound decisions under pressure.

Build a team that steps up

Reduce dependence on you and create real ownership.

Have the conversations that matter

Address tension before it becomes expensive.

Lead the business rather than carry it

Create space for strategy, relationships and life.

Increase your influence

Influence without pushing, telling, controlling or silencing the people around you.

Don’t pay an unnecessary personal price

Protect your energy, health, family time and important relationships while continuing to pursue meaningful ambition.

What Leaders Say

For the last five years, Daphna has challenged and provoked me, never allowing me to settle for safety or lazy thinking. She insists that I confront difficult issues head on, while remaining thoughtful, insightful and unwaveringly supportive. She’s an extraordinary coach, and I’m glad to have her alongside me.

Meet Daphna

Before becoming an executive coach, I trained as an actuary and became a consulting director at 23. I understand ambition, responsibility and the price hidden behind strong results. Today I combine commercial grounding, organisational psychology and deep coaching experience to help leaders change what is happening at work and how they are living through it.
