Emma Noguchi is passionate about unleashing potential in leaders so they can bring their teams to the next level of performance, engagement, and wellbeing.

Starting her career in Japan, Emma worked in large advertising and communication agencies to create impactful media campaigns for her clients. She then moved to Singapore for a regional role but soon found herself reinventing her career. She became a Coach and a Management Consultant to focus on People and Culture in organisations. With her mixed cultural background, she focuses her coaching around DEIB topics (Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, Belonging) especially as teams are increasingly hybrid, multicultural, diverse, and dispersed geographically.

Her latest venture is a Coaching Institute to train and certify professional managers in coaching skills.

She has worked with a wider range of organisations across Asia and Europe in both public and private sectors. Some of her clients include Google, Meta, WHO, European Commission, UNICEF, BGC, Microsoft, Prudential, Shiseido, Suntory, etc.

She’s known to be very versatile, very caring and committed to supporting her clients to get to the truth of what really matters for them.


When not working, Emma loves travelling, hiking, and playing in the metaverse virtual reality. She wants to bring the magic of coaching there too!
