Eva Kovacs

Eva Kovacs is an experienced executive and team coach who supports senior leaders to create transformational change and achieve sustainable high performance. With over 25 years of international business experience, she combines deep relational work with a strong understanding of leadership, systems and organisational dynamics.

Eva is driven by a strong belief in human potential and the capacity for growth and transformation. She works with leaders to develop greater self-awareness, enabling them to lead with more intention, authenticity and choice. Her coaching creates a reflective space in which clients can step back, reconnect with what matters and make decisions that support both personal fulfilment and organisational effectiveness.

Her approach is warm, relational and somatically informed, combining deep listening with compassionate challenge. She creates a safe yet stretching environment where clients can explore patterns, shift perspectives and develop more intuitive and effective ways of leading. Grounded in research on human development and systems dynamics, her work supports insight, behavioural change and more conscious decision-making.

She works with individuals and teams to strengthen leadership capability, particularly in areas such as navigating complexity, leading change, and building high-performing, trust-based environments. Her coaching supports leaders to think more systemically, engage others more effectively and sustain performance in demanding contexts.

Eva works with senior executives, high-potential leaders and leadership teams across sectors including pharmaceuticals, FMCG, financial services, banking, energy and the public sector. She has particular expertise in cross-cultural leadership, supporting senior women leaders, and working with leaders navigating complex transitions. Her clients include organisations such as BAE Systems, Daimler, GSK, Haleon, KPMG, Mondelēz, UCB, UBS, Uniper and Valmet.
