Zenica Chatman

Zenica Chatman is a successful leader and certified personal and executive coach, helping women rediscover their inner strength and confidence in the aftermath of workplace related trauma.

Her own journey into coaching and positive psychology began after being left emotionally broken by a pair of workplace bullies at the height of her marketing career. She went on a path to redefine her own self-worth and what it means to be successful at work. Now, as a coach she’s helped dozens of other women do the same.

Zenica also helps leaders develop their own unique leadership style and create work environments that are safe and equitable for everyone. She is the creator of an eight-week work detox program, Surviving Corporate and has been featured in Fast Company and on numerous podcasts including Authentic Leadership for Everyday People, and Kandid Conversations.

Today she shares her own experience with bullying, how an ally made a big difference in her career and well-being, and how you can establish a healthy relationship with work that puts you in the driver’s seat.
