About Me
I’m Spela Adamic Malik — a strategic Delivery & Transformation leader with over 20 years of commercial and operational experience, combined with deep somatic and psychotherapeutic training.
I’ve held senior executive roles including Head of Delivery at Entsia, Head of PMO at THE ICONIC (leading their largest transformation program ahead of schedule), and multiple enterprise leadership positions across amaysim, Optus, and international consulting. I’ve delivered measurable commercial outcomes: improving consulting utilisation by 30%, steering portfolios of 400+ projects, driving M&A integrations, and scaling delivery organisations while navigating high-stakes stakeholder environments.
What distinguishes me from classic coaches is this rare combination: I bring sharp commercial strategy, process optimisation, Agile/OKR execution, and large-scale transformation expertise — grounded in real P&L accountability and delivery pressure — together with Certified Embodiment Coaching and ongoing Masters-level training in Psychotherapy & Counselling (ACAP).
This integration allows me to support founders, delivery leaders, and executive teams not just with personal insight, but with practical, business-savvy tools that directly impact performance, retention, profitability, and sustainable growth.
My Approach
I work at the intersection of strategy and the nervous system. Using somatic awareness, neuroscience-informed methods, and trauma-informed relational work, I help high-performers:
- Regulate under pressure and make clearer strategic decisions
- Resolve team and stakeholder dynamics that slow delivery
- Navigate identity shifts during rapid growth or transformation
- Build resilient leadership cultures without sacrificing commercial results
Having migrated from Slovenia to Australia, led global programs, and invested over 15 years in my own personal development and supervision, I bring both lived executive experience and embodied depth to every engagement.
Clients work with me because they want someone who understands the boardroom realities and the human realities — and can translate both into tangible, lasting outcomes.
