Hi, I’m Alicia Daugherty.

Wife, mother, corporate executive and coach.

I have spent the majority of my career in corporate America, most recently as a Vice President at Comcast. Throughout my corporate career, I found that the most rewarding aspect of any job was to work with people to develop their personal and professional potential. But, it’s not always obvious to people what their unique gifts are, or how to realize what impact they are capable of having as professionals.

I learned, over and over, that leadership is about more than a profession or title. Leadership means understanding your personal definition of success, showing up as your authentic self, and then using your strengths to serve others. It is now my passion to help others see themselves more clearly and see what their own brand of leadership really is!

I live in Southern Chester County, Pennsylvania with my husband, Jim. We are enthusiastic and highly competitive homebrewers and, admittedly, marginal golfers. We have two grown children, Jay and Leah. They are lovely humans, busy at building their own lives.

I am a Professional Certified Coach (PCC) recognized by the International Coach Federation (ICF) which sets the global standard for professionalism and ethics in coaching. I have also been designated as a Certified Professional Co-Active Coach (CPCC) by the Co-Active Training Institute (CTI), and a Certified NeuroTransformational Coach (CNTC) by BeAbove Leadership. I am trained in Organization and Relationship Systems Coaching (ORSC) and am a certified AIIR Team Effectiveness Coach. I am also certified in several assessment instruments including:

  • The Hogan Assessments

  • Deeper Signals Core Driver Diagnostic

  • Coaching Mindset Index Assessment

  • AIIR Team Effectiveness Survey

Let’s see your potential!

What People Are Saying

Executive Coaching Clients

Alicia was my first professional coach and our engagement showed me the value of making the coaching investment in myself.  I greatly appreciated Alicia’s dynamism in addressing rapidly changing needs of my career.  In the middle of our engagement we pivoted our conversations to focus on interview prep, securing a new role and setting myself up for a successful internal transition.  Alicia was a trusted advisor and sounding board during this critical time.  Alicia’s candor is also extremely refreshing.  She always provides honest and direct perspective – in many cases challenging my thinking on an existing professional situation.  I’m also grateful for the personal relationship I was able to establish with Alicia.  Her approach in “Coaching the full you” allowed us to have a genuine conversation for every session during our engagement.

— Charles F., Vice President, Financial Services Sector

Working with Alicia has been a wonderful experience for me because she is incredibly patient and supportive, and she is not afraid to push me outside of my comfort zone, which is exactly what I need.  She is helping me see things through someone else's lens, and has helped me acknowledge my fears and the things that are holding me back from being my true authentic self.  I trust Alicia and know she always has my best interests in mind. I have grown so much both personally and professionally and am forever grateful.

— Julie R., Former Telecom Vice President and Founder of J Rohmer Coaching LLC 

I hand-picked Alicia from a large pool of coaches for her presence and the way she engages a client. She understands the importance of staying in the “now,” which enables her to notice when a scenario is more complex than I had originally thought. She has created a safe space where I can discuss sensitive topics without judgment. Her gentle observations and challenges to my limiting beliefs have increased my clarity and led me to release self-judgments in a healing way.

— Johnny G., Former HR & Learning Director and Founder of Refractive

Working with Alicia helped me find clarity with what I wanted and motivated me to devise a plan. Alicia asked me thoughtful questions that really made think hard and take a step back to look at the full picture. I feel empowered to find an opportunity that better suits my personality and skillset

— Sandy T., Director, Program Services

Alicia was first a mentor to me and then a coach. During our coaching sessions, she challenged me to dig deeper into reflections of myself and pushed me out of my comfort zone. She brought valuable insights to our discussions and kept us focused on the goals we set together up front. I would highly recommend Alicia as a coach because she is truly passionate about helping her clients work towards their goals, and she also brings a wealth of professional knowledge and experience to share.

— Stephanie H., Sr Manager, Business Planning & Strategy

I cannot recommend working with Alicia enough! She empathetically challenged the beliefs/false narratives I had about myself; she acts as a partner to you in uncovering and dismantling the thoughts that hold you back.

— Chelsea L., Senior Consultant

Transformational! Working with Alicia has been a very revealing experience. She has helped me move to a deeper level of self-awareness and to use the newly acquired insight to confidently increase my leadership potential and impact. Alicia brings solid executive experience, phenomenal listening skills, and a passion for helping others to get ahead and stay ahead. Many of the strategies I learned from our coaching sessions will continue to play a part in my work and personal life for many years to come.

— Zulma A., Sales Director

Mentor Coaching Clients

Working with Alicia was an invaluable experience on my journey to ICF accreditation. Her exceptional listening skills, deep encouragement, and extensive knowledge provided the foundation I needed to grow as a coach and confidently prepare for the ICF exam. What truly set her apart was her ability to connect with someone like me, who comes from a business background. Having worked in business herself, she intuitively understood how to communicate with and guide individuals accustomed to advisory or leadership roles. This insight made her feedback especially relevant and actionable. Her warm, supportive approach, combined with her expertise, made our sessions both productive and inspiring. I wholeheartedly recommend Alicia to anyone seeking a mentor coach—especially those transitioning from the business world into coaching. She understands the unique challenges and perspectives of business professionals and skillfully bridges the gap to effective coaching.

— Soojin K., Founder & CEO, Talent Peak Advisors LLC

I had the privilege of working with Alicia as my mentor while coach attaining my coaching certification. Throughout our coaching engagement, I found her to be a constant source of inspiration and encouragement, and I am immensely grateful for the transformative impact she has had on my life. Alicia possesses a unique ability to challenge her clients while providing the essential support needed for growth. Her coaching style is rooted in a deep understanding of her clients' needs, and she has an uncanny knack for helping individuals unlock their true potential.  I look forward to continuing our professional relationship as I navigate the exciting journey of entrepreneurship that she helped me embark upon.

— Maria S., Founder of Scarangella Consulting, LLC
