Alina Doran is a senior corporate operator turned executive coach. With 25 years inside Disney, Paramount, and The New York Times, she sat in the seats her clients now sit in, having led through the global Disney+ launch across 20 markets, integrated 16 newly acquired teams, helped prepare companies to scale for an exit, including an IPO, while partnering with leaders through fear and resistance to breakthrough results for themselves and the business.
Known for her intuition, candor, and humor, Alina coaches C-suite and high-potential leaders through career inflection points, relentless change, and the decisions only they can make, without losing themselves in the process. Her proprietary Animal Intelligence™ framework, which she taught at UC Berkeley’s Haas School of Business and venture capital forums, and is featured in her TEDx talk, surfaces the patterns that quietly derail smart leaders under pressure.
Recent clients include leaders at J.P. Morgan, Bank of America, Strava, SoundTransit, and the Office of the Surgeon General of California.
Alina is a Certified Professional Co-Active Coach, is credentialed with the International Coaching Federation, and has trained in Core Energetics, a body-centered integrative approach, through The Institute of Core Energetics. She is certified in Hogan personality and leadership assessments.
