The Foundation

Three Decades of Academic Excellence

Luz Coaching was founded by Nélia Viveiros, EdD, LLB, to address the human and systemic dimensions of organizational challenges. With over 30 years of experience in higher education administration and policy development, she provides the unique dual perspective of a legal expert and a dedicated academic leader.

Even the deepest institutional conflicts can be transformed into a clear pathway toward sustainable growth.

— Nélia Viveiros, EdD, LLB

"I originally worked with Nelia as my executive coach and then brought her in for organizational coaching for the whole unit. I am so glad I worked with Nelia on both fronts. Not only have I become the best leader I could be, organizationally, Nelia has helped my unit recognize that our culture needed attention. She has brought us a wealth of sound business practices that have helped us to create lasting and positive cultural habits."

Client Testimonials

"Nelia's work with us has been an invaluable resource. Because of it, we were able to create an important sounding board allowing long-standing staff and faculty to disagree or miscommunicate over time without escalation and damage to any individual."

-Jill

"I personally appreciate Nelia's fair consideration of the situation which allowed the team to grow. Over time, I suspect without safe discourse similar issues may have led to significant dissatisfaction and distrust."
