S. Michele Nevarez

Michele Nevarez brings 25+ years of executive leadership and 32+ years of Tibetan Buddhist practice to her pioneering work in Embodied Emotional Intelligence. Author of Beyond Emotional Intelligence: A Guide to Accessing Your Full Potential and Founder of Beyond EI, a coaching and training firm, she translates ancient contemplative wisdom into science-based practices introducing people to what they have direct agency over within themselves.

Michele Nevarez, SPHR has spent 25+ years in organizational development and senior leadership roles working with Fortune 500 companies in investment management, healthcare, manufacturing, and management consulting. A founding member of Rangjung Yeshe Institute, a university based in Nepal, Michele has served on the Boards of Directors of non-profit organizations ever since and has been practicing Tibetan Buddhism for the last 32 years.

Michele founded Beyond EI, a coaching and training firm, to address what traditional approaches to leadership and emotional intelligence often miss, the integration of embodied practices with an approach towards habit change that creates opportunities to put theory into practice. As an author and thought leader, she has pioneered frameworks to help leaders understand the hidden mechanics of perception—where they’re on autopilot and where they have emotional agency.

Her work includes the Awareness Matrix, the Mindbody Map, and the 12 Self-Discoveries, methods for practicing awareness and sense-making. Michele has spent her life attempting to bridge ancient wisdom practices with science and leadership theory to provide secular yet powerful ways for people to embody their own wisdom and follow their inner guidance system.
