Where I can help you reach the next level

It’s not about which coaching or consulting format you prefer — it’s about what challenge brought you here. These are the areas where I create the most impact; further down, the concrete ways we can work through them together.

I typically start working with executives at a specific moment: the transition into a role of greater responsibility, leading a transformation process, scaling the organization, or consolidating your own leadership style after several years in the role. If you recognize yourself in any of these moments, here’s where I can help:

Strategic Thinking

When daily operations absorb all your time, the 3-year vision stays on the to-do list. We work to recover the judgment you need to decide with perspective, not just react to what’s urgent — especially during transformation or scaling, when a poor strategic call costs far more than in stable times.

Influence & Persuasion

Reaching a role of greater responsibility doesn’t always come with the formal authority to back it up from day one. We work on your ability to influence the conversations that actually move decisions — with your team, your peers and the leadership committee — without relying solely on your title.

High-Performing Teams

A team that executes well because you’re there is not the same as a team that executes well without you. We work on developing people and structures that sustain results autonomously — especially critical when you’re leading a transformation or scaling the organization faster than you can personally oversee.

Leading Change

Resistance to change isn’t an obstacle to eliminate — it’s information about what’s still unclear or poorly communicated. We work on leading real transformation processes, turning that resistance (yours and your organization’s) into part of the process, not an enemy to defeat.

Priorities & Focus

The greater your responsibility, the more legitimate requests compete for your time — and saying yes to all of them is, in practice, saying no to what matters. We work on a real focus strategy: what to stop doing, what to say no to with judgment, and how to protect the time that actually moves results.

Personal Branding

Consolidating your leadership style after several years in the role often means no longer having to prove your value in every conversation. We work on making your reputation and your way of leading consistently recognized, inside and outside your organization, without constantly having to sell yourself.

Here’s how we can work through any of these areas together:

What clients say about working with me

From VP to manager, the same level of rigor

“Mauro helped me adjust my leadership style to different behaviors and circumstances, being more reflexive than passionate. He taught me to be more generous, assertive, and to listen more than I speak — empathy is better than sympathy.”

José María Odriozola — Vice President, Western Europe, international logistics sector

“Mauro has aided me to work on difficult areas of development by approaching it unjudgementally, favouring an open and deep conversation. I feel I have achieved significant personal and professional growth under his coaching.”

Executive Director — Banking sector

“It was a transformational personal experience. It helped me better understand myself and my professional environment, allowing me to focus on my strengths and priorities, resulting in increased confidence and performance.”

Xavier Urbaneja — Head of Market Segment, Brand Protection

“My coach Mauro Delgado surprised me positively, especially on emotional intelligence. He has helped me a lot on how to deal with problems with resilience and optimism, motivating my team and above all myself with self-control, esteem and positivity.”

Javier Amor — Technical Manager, SICPA Spain SLU

“The coaching pathway with Mauro has been way wider than expected — a journey of self-awareness, reflection, recognition and transformation. The tools we used, focused on communication and people management, made me put learnings into practice in real situations almost every day.”

Andrea Palomino — Regional Sales Manager, pharmaceutical sector

How we work together

A process, not a series of loose conversations

In 6,000 hours of executive coaching, I’ve seen that change which lasts almost always follows the same sequence: first clarity about what truly matters, then impact in how your leadership is perceived and communicated, then the ability to mobilize others in the same direction, and only then results that don’t reverse the following month. I call that sequence the CIMA Method, and it’s the thread running through every coaching process I run.

Frequently asked questions

Before we start

Who are Mauro’s typical clients?

Already successful leaders looking to reach a new level, not just professionally but personally. They’re already good at what they do — the work is helping them become exceptional.

How long do the programs last?

Usually 6 months, following the full arc of the CIMA Method. Other formats are possible on request.

Are sessions online or in-person?

Mostly online, with clients around the world. In-person available in Barcelona or coinciding with travel.

Who is this for — and who isn’t it for?

I work best with leaders who already have proven results and are looking for the next level — not with those looking to put out a one-off fire or who need constant supervision to execute. If your team or business already works and you are the ceiling, we’re likely a fit. If you’re looking for a quick fix without engaging in the process, I’m not the right person.

How do we know if there’s a fit?

In the initial strategic session, at no cost. We talk through your real situation, I give you a useful first perspective whether we move forward or not, and we both decide with real information — no commitment or pressure to continue. If it’s not a fit, I’ll tell you directly and point you toward another option if I can.
