Ina Saltanava

Ina Saltanava’s journey has been anything but conventional. Coming from a small village and growing into a female executive and mother of two while building a career abroad, she faced cultural barriers, social bias, and the challenges of living between worlds. These experiences taught her resilience, adaptability, and the importance of intercultural leadership.

Today, she helps other expat leaders and professionals transform those same challenges into stepping stones for success. She believes true leadership is built on intercultural synergy, the ability to connect, inspire, and lead across cultures with respect, inclusion, and impact. With two decades of first-hand expatriate experience, she understands the realities of building a career and life abroad.

Her clients value that she combines real-world international business expertise with coaching that is practical, empathetic, and results-driven. Executive coaching enhances leadership skills by focusing on areas such as effective communication, leading change, emotional intelligence, strategic thinking, and conflict resolution. She provides expatriates and international leaders with the tools to adapt their leadership style to different cultural contexts, ensuring they can inspire and manage diverse teams successfully.

For global organizations, she is a trusted partner in developing leaders who can thrive in complex, multicultural environments. Her programs are designed to align with corporate goals, strengthen cross-border collaboration, and foster inclusive leadership cultures that drive performance and innovation on an international scale.

For her, success is something everyone strives for, but sustainable success goes beyond short-term achievements. It is about building a resilient self, capable of facing challenges and adapting to change, ensuring long-term growth in both personal and professional life. She strives to create international workplaces that foster sustainable cultures, inspire leaders, and promote positive social impact, contributing to a happier global community.
