Elise Boggs is a certified Emotional Intelligence coach, Professor of Leadership, and a leadership coach and consultant. Over the last 15 years, I’ve supported the development of thousands of leaders across many different industries including the military (working with U.S. Navy Seals), medicine, law enforcement, engineering, technology, education, and entertainment – and I’ve seen incredible results.

I started my career in the non-profit sector where I oversaw an unpaid staff of over 300 volunteers. This was my “lab” for learning what drives people to engage and perform at high levels. I tested out different leadership approaches and when my volunteers began to outperform the paid staff, I knew I was on to something!  

Since then, I’ve made it my mission to help bridge the gap in knowledge for intelligent, competent, high-achieving leaders – leaders who are feeling stuck and frustrated because they are not getting the results they know they are capable of from their teams.  No matter your industry, becoming a skilled leader will profoundly impact the team you are able to create and the results you can achieve.

I hold a Masters Degree in Organizational Leadership and Development and am a certified coach in: Emotional Intelligence, SDI (Strengths Deployment Inventory) and Appreciative Inquiry.  

I reside in sunny San Diego with my husband Hector.
