A Next-Generation Leadership Consultant. Researcher of Wholeness, Maturity and Transformation. A Partner in Deep Change.
For leaders who have already achieved success yet find themselves facing challenges more complex than ever before, Inessa acts as a partner in navigating the transition to a new way of thinking, acting and being. She accompanies those ready to look deeper — into the very place where decisions are born that transform not only business, but life itself.
Inessa is a consultant in personal and organisational transformation, and a specialist in ecosystemic, holistic and mature leadership. She is the founder of the ID Institute — a space where radical transformation of leaders and organisations unfolds through profound educational and coaching programmes. She works with business owners, CEOs and executive teams, helping them shift from the old paradigm of management to post-heroic, conscious leadership rooted in wholeness, maturity and service to life.
With nineteen years in business and distinguished international certifications (INSEAD, CIIS, Erickson University), what truly distinguishes Inessa is her ability to see the essence. She has an exceptional capacity to identify the real source of stagnation, reveal the unseen knot, and — with the precision and sensitivity of a masterful guide — support her clients in walking the path of transformation.
Clients say:
“With Inessa, it hurts — but gently, like an IV drip. She diagnoses the essence of the problem and creates a space where magic happens.”
“Inessa is a coach with a whip — but in a pleasant way.”
“It hurts, but she always hits the mark.”
“If Inessa leads a project, you can be sure — it will be deep, high-quality and truly transformative.”
“My mission is to facilitate the radical transformation of leaders and organisations. I envision a community of whole, free and mature individuals who live in harmony with themselves and create positive change in the world.”

How to Work with Inessa
Inessa Golubova designs and leads transformational programmes that combine intellectual depth with aesthetic precision. Her work creates immersive environments where senior leaders explore the dynamics of power and vulnerability, light and shadow — learning to integrate them into a more authentic and mature form of leadership.
She facilitates executive and team development processes and is the author of several flagship programmes, including Re:think, Mastery of Transformational Leadership, Path of the Hero, and Creative Thinking. She is a strategic partner of the Family Business Association of Ukraine and co-founder of BoardWisers — an advisory firm advancing corporate governance and helping organisations build high-performing boards — Inessa also curates and facilitates Shadow Work retreats in collaboration with senior trainers from the United Kingdom, pioneers of this method in Europe.
In her work, Inessa combines psychodynamic methods, coaching, systems thinking and the philosophy of regenerative leadership. She helps leaders not merely change their actions but evolve their way of thinking — creating business from an integrated, whole-state perspective and rediscovering deep meaning in their personal and professional paths.
If you are a leader seeking not superficial motivation but profound transformation — if the time has come to see yourself and your business in a new light — book an introductory call with Inessa.
She will become your thinking partner and help you see further, deeper, and clearer.
Upcoming Programmes
Leadership begins at the moment we pause to think and feel — Who am I becoming as the world around me changes? Inessa invites you to join her upcoming programmes — deep, bold and transformative journeys created for those ready to think and live in new ways.
Re:think — an individual coaching programme for personal strategy. Designed for leaders navigating transitions and seeking clarity, new direction and inner grounding. The programme helps participants redefine themselves, complete past chapters, recognise their resources and shape a vision for the future. Together with Inessa, participants move through four sequential phases: analysing past experience and roles, discovering their personal mission, building a trajectory of transition, and practising new ways of action. It is a deep, individual journey where what emerges is not merely a strategy — but a new level of maturity from which authentic leadership is born.
Shadow Work — a profound transformational programme for leaders ready to meet their shadow — those hidden parts of the self that influence decisions, relationships and leadership from the depths of the unconscious. Throughout the process, participants explore their own archetypes — the Warrior, Lover, Magician and King — learning to recognise how their light and shadow sides manifest in life and business, and how integrating these aspects leads to genuine maturity. The programme is led by British Shadow Work trainers, founders of the method in Europe, with Inessa Golubova serving as facilitator and organiser of this unique transformational space. It is a deeply personal experience of meeting oneself — after which leaders return to the world with greater clarity, strength and the capacity to act with wholeness and integrity.
