About Us

Vatalaro Coaching is a leadership and professional coaching practice committed to diversifying the leadership landscape.  Our cornerstone program, the Future Leaders Grant, provides low or no-cost personalized 1:1 leadership development coaching to professionals from traditionally marginalized backgrounds.  

Our esteemed coaches, who are dedicated DEI advocates, actively foster a transformative learning environment.  This initiative not only offers subsidized coaching to empower participants to advance their leadership skills, but it also aims to create ripple effects that benefit entire communities and future generations.  

This fundraiser will help provide at least 10 underrepresented professionals with access to 6 months of 1:1 leadership development support! Six months of sustained focus has shown to be critical in achieving lasting behavioral change and significant professional growth, ensuring participants can fully integrate and apply new skills to drive meaningful progress in their careers.

By equipping underrepresented professionals with the tools to lead, we are not just changing the boardrooms; we are building better businesses.

Our Mission

We believe in the power of diverse leadership to create a more inclusive world. Our coaching focuses on leadership development for women, transgender and nonconforming individuals, and men of color. By equipping professionals from underrepresented backgrounds with professional support and essential guidance, we cultivate leaders who drive change and inspire others.

How You Can Help

Contributions from individual donors are the cornerstone of our efforts and are vital to the success of this program:

  • A $25 donation contributes to the ongoing support of future leaders.

  • A donation of $1,800 fully subsidizes six months of coaching for an individual, providing them with critical guidance and resources to thrive as leaders.

By supporting the Future Leaders Grant, you are investing in a brighter, more inclusive future. Your contribution helps break down barriers and creates opportunities for underrepresented leaders to rise and make a lasting impact.

The Power of Diverse Leadership

Investing in diverse leadership is crucial for building a more equitable and inclusive society:

  • Only 4.8% of Fortune 500 CEOs are women, and just three are women of color.

  • People of color make up only 36% of the U.S. workforce but hold just 16% of executive positions.

  • Companies with diverse leadership are more innovative and financially successful, with a 33% higher likelihood of outperforming their peers.

By addressing these disparities, the Future Leaders Grant aims to create a leadership landscape that truly reflects the diversity of our society.

Our grant recipients have gone on to build inclusive teams, champion diversity, and mentor future generations, creating a ripple effect of positive change. Their success stories highlight the transformative potential of targeted support, showing how strategic investment in underrepresented talent can reshape leadership for the better.
