Company: EXCELSA C³® Academia Excelsa en Experiencias CX
Designation: Founder, Consultant, Trainer & International Speaker
Country: Dominican Republic
Arlette Almánzar Burgos is the Founder of EXCELSA C³®, a strategic model focused on Quality, Culture, and Human Capital, and a global consultant, trainer, and speaker from the Dominican Republic. She represents a new generation of global leaders shaping the future through human-centered transformation, conscious leadership, and purpose-driven learning. A Dominican consultant, trainer, and international speaker, she brings more than two decades of experience in competency-based learning, service leadership, and cultural transformation. Over the course of her career, she has trained more than 100,000 professionals across public and private institutions, military organizations, and growing businesses, helping individuals and teams reconnect with learning as a meaningful and transformative experience.
At the core of her work is EXCELSA C³®, a strategic consulting and transformation model she developed to address organizational growth at both structural and human levels. More than a methodology, EXCELSA® functions as a professional standard grounded in three essential pillars: Quality, Culture, and Human Capital. Through this framework, she works closely with leaders, executives, and business owners who seek deeper transformation, often those whose organizations expanded rapidly without the time to build strong systems, values, or people-centered cultures, or those ready to evolve into a more conscious and purpose-aligned phase of leadership.
Her approach emphasizes transformation from the mindset outward, helping leaders gain clarity, awareness, and direction in how they lead, serve, and build teams. EXCELSA C³® provides the structure organizations need to grow sustainably while preserving their humanity, ensuring that operational excellence does not come at the expense of meaning or connection.
To bring this transformation to life, she integrates DIVINA®, a proprietary methodology designed to create emotional, experiential, and practical learning experiences. Rooted in six principles, Dynamic, Inverted, Experiential, Innovative, Natural, and Authentic, DIVINA® blends spiritual wisdom, emotional intelligence, neuroeducation, and creativity. The result is transformational education that reshapes how individuals think, feel, and act, bridging intellectual understanding with emotional engagement.
Within this framework, she also developed ENAMORAR FORMANDO®, a specialized model for trainers and facilitators. This methodology equips educators to connect deeply with participants through storytelling, ritual, gamification, and emotional presence, turning each learning session into a meaningful and memorable experience rather than a transactional exchange of information.
Together, EXCELSA C³® DIVINA®, and ENAMORAR FORMANDO® form an integrated ecosystem for consulting, leadership development, and human transformation. Arlette’s work is strategic, emotional, and ethical, focused on helping organizations build strong structures without losing their soul and guiding individuals back to their sense of purpose and inner greatness.
Recognized as a LinkedIn Top Voice in Latin America in areas such as Customer Experience, Teaching, and Motivation, she values impact over accolades. For her, true success lies in witnessing transformation, from burnout to clarity, from disconnection to purpose. As she continues to guide the next generation of soul-driven professionals, her vision remains clear: learning should never be a transaction, but a sacred experience that inspires meaningful change in people, organizations, and the world. For Arlette, learning is sacred. It's a soulful encounter where transformation becomes inevitable, one leader, one organization, one story at a time.
