Transitions can be tough. Getting a new job, landing a delicate role, or suddenly finding yourself being in between jobs is not the easiest thing in the world.
No matter how careful you are, life won’t always take you in the direction you want. Storms will come, change will happen, but you know what? It will also pass. So, it’s not about whether you go through tough times or not, it’s about making sure you go through them and come out thriving.
So, how do we ensure that despite a tough transition, you make the necessary self-adjustments, reposition yourself and stay relevant?
How do we make sure that you do not jeopardize your own success?
How do we make it impossible for you to give up prematurely?
My name is Folake Adeniyi-Adeleye, many call me ‘F.A.A’, I’m the founder of Coachivate, and that’s what I do.
In addition to being a Certified Executive coach, Life coach and NLP Practitioner, I am an International HR Leader with a 20-year career spanning industries such as management consulting & strategic advisory, oil & gas, telecommunications, and information technology.

I’ve spent the better part of my career helping executives and CEOs succeed. I have coached many high performing professionals, start-ups and thriving entrepreneurs, aspiring executives and top executives in Africa, Europe, USA, and the Middle East.
So, I understand business at a senior level and the cultural and political nuances of today’s workplace. I know first-hand the skills & abilities required to succeed at various levels in an organization, and my goal is to help you become an exceptional professional.
Even though I know what success looks and feels like and what it’s like to succeed in a highly disruptive and fast-paced working environment, I also realize that it’s not always rosy – at least, it hasn’t always been, for me. I know what it is like to fail and fall flat on your face.
Life throws all sorts of stuff at you, especially when you least expect. If you don’t have the right values that help you self-adjust and manage the transitions, how then will you win?
That’s why I founded Coachivate – a capacity development platform dedicated to helping professional and business leaders get unstuck, move forward, stay relevant and achieve meaningful success.
My commitment as a certified coach is to take you on a journey to raise your level of self-awareness, guide you to reposition yourself and make the necessary adjustments until the best YOU emerges.
I’m your strategic thinking partner that gets you from point A to B especially in the midst of transition or disruption.
