Hi,
I'm Adela

Social Entrepreneur

Certified Coach

Home: About Me

I'm an accidental social entrepreneur, an intentional product manager, and a coach by nature.

 

For over a decade, I've worked with multinational teams across India, China, Taiwan, and Europe, navigating cultures, functions, and building products and services that matter. Communication and facilitation are my second nature, whether I'm aligning stakeholders in a healthtech startup or coaching a founder through burnout.

 

My thirst for impact led me to India, where I co-founded Chezuba, a social enterprise featured in Forbes 30 Under 30 Asia. We built an online volunteering platform from 0→100,000 users, facilitating 140,000+ volunteering hours globally.

 

After years of leading product and operations, I realised what energised me most was helping teams work better together. Setting up the systems that create clarity. Coaching people through transitions. Bringing order to chaos while keeping teams energised to do their best work.

 

So I became a coach. AC-accredited, trained in therapeutic coaching, and deeply curious about psychology, behaviour change, and mental well-being. Now I combine both worlds: the analytical rigor of product management with the human-centred approach of coaching.

Product Management Consultant & Personal Coach

As a certified coach, I help individuals to navigate personal and professional transitions with balance.
I also work with startups in the area of product management and leadership coaching. I identify gaps and design tailored solutions to improve product management processes, team collaboration, efficiency, and ways of working.

"There is a safety in the midst of danger.
What would life be if we had no courage to attempt anything?"
