Cheryl Esposito,
Founder of Alexsa Consulting
and Center for World Leadership.
Cheryl Esposito, MSW, Founder and CEO of Alexsa Consulting, is internationally recognized for coaching and developing business leaders to increase their own and their organizations’ effectiveness.
Based in San Francisco, Cheryl has been expanding the reach of Alexsa Consulting since 1993. With experience gained working with leaders from global Fortune 500 companies, Cheryl has more recently been consulting with venture capitalists and tech company leaders in the Silicon Valley area.
Cheryl’s work in coaching global leaders, delivering leadership development programs, facilitating leadership retreats and supporting organizational change has led her to what she believes is the critical success factor in any of these ventures: the authenticity and consciousness of the leaders—how they show up, how in sync with the self they are, and
how they are perceived by others.
Cheryl’s clients most often come to her intent on becoming a more successful leader. They soon understand the path to this outcome is “knowing how to know oneself.” It is only then if they are willing to risk, to lead themselves, that others will follow.
Most often, a client will come to Cheryl because they want to know how they can become a more successful leader. What Cheryl helps them to understand is that the path to achieving this is “knowing how to know oneself.” It is only if they are willing to risk, and to lead themselves, that others will follow.
The Center for World Leadership is the fruition of a long-held desire to take people to the next step of their personal development: contributing to the world. Today, there are many different ways in which we can give our time, expertise and energy for the good of others. But there are not so many places and opportunities to come together with the aim of creating a whole new way of looking at the world. Over the years, Cheryl has experienced the power of a simple conversation. She has seen it completely transform the strategy of a large organization, create collaboration where none was thought possible, and influence the direction of a person’s entire life.
