Leadership that Works in Practice
Executive Communication, Management Development & Embodied Leadership for Leaders in Transition.
About Tahra Millan Consulting
Elevate Your Leadership. Amplify Your Impact.
Today’s leaders operate in environments that are fast-moving, complex, and high-stakes. The challenge is rarely a lack of intelligence or motivation, it’s the absence of clear structures, effective communication, and sustainable ways of operating under pressure.
I work at the intersection of executive communication, management development, and embodied leadership, helping leaders navigate critical transitions: moving from individual contributor to manager, and from strong technical performer to people leader.
I am a builder by nature, focused on translating leadership expectations into day-to-day behavior, decision-making, and results.
About Coach Tahra
I'm a premier executive coach with over 20 years of experience spanning finance, strategic planning, and executive communications.
I partner with leaders across culture, entertainment, and finance to refine leadership presence, strengthen communication, and improve execution in real work situations. My clients include rising leaders and directors navigating new levels of responsibility and visibility.
As an adjunct professor at Columbia Business School, I taught branding strategy and high-stakes delivery, and served on the faculty at Teachers College, Columbia University. I am a certified Social Style® coach (TRACOM), holding a BFA from NYU’s Tisch School of the Arts, and an MA from Columbia University.
What makes my approach distinctive is simple: I coach what I live -clarity, preparation, physiological regulation, and accountability- grounded, tested, and immediately applicable.
Services
Executive Communication Coaching
Executive communication is about how leaders show up. The work focuses on:
- Clarity of message
- Executive presence and confidence
- Preparing for and leading discussions
- Communicating effectively upward and across functions
This coaching helps leaders talk less about leadership and with leadership in ways that drive outcomes.
Management Development Coaching
Management development coaching focuses on how work actually gets done, not just what leaders think about their role. This work includes:
- Assessments and analytics (teams, projects, vendors)
- Building repeatable structures and operating rhythms
- Strengthening accountability and execution
I often work with leaders who have performance feedback they want to respond to with real results not generic frameworks.
Embodied Leadership (MindBody Perspective)
Leadership effectiveness is both cognitive and physiological.
The MindBody perspective integrates communication, behavior, and stress regulation so leaders can perform with:
- Greater self-awareness
- Clearer decision-making
- More sustained confidence under pressure
This dimension unlocks capacity that traditional coaching overlooks.
