Tina Mathas

Fractional COO and Executive Coach

About Me

Tina Mathas is a Fractional COO, executive coach, and strategic operator who helps founders, executives, and growing businesses turn complexity into clarity, momentum, and sustainable growth. With more than 30 years of leadership experience across startups, scale-ups, Fortune 500 companies, financial services, technology, innovation, and professional services, Tina brings both the strategic altitude and operational depth needed to help organizations move from vision to execution. As a Fractional COO, Tina partners with business owners and leadership teams to strengthen operating systems, clarify priorities, improve decision-making, align teams, and build the structure required for growth. She is often brought in when a business has outgrown its current way of working and needs stronger execution, cleaner accountability, better rhythms, and a more scalable operating model. As an executive coach, Tina works with leaders who are carrying significant responsibility, complexity, and pressure. Her coaching blends practical business experience with a deep understanding of human behaviour, neuroscience, leadership dynamics, and power. She helps leaders increase self-awareness, strengthen their decision-making, navigate difficult relationships, and lead with more clarity, confidence, and humanity. Tina’s approach is grounded, direct, and deeply human. She has led from inside the pressure, built teams, navigated transformation, scaled businesses, and supported leaders through the messy middle of growth. Her work is especially valuable for founders, CEOs, COOs, and senior leaders who know the business is ready for its next stage but need the operating discipline, leadership capacity, and trusted partnership to get there. At the heart of Tina’s work is a simple belief: businesses grow when people, systems, and leadership are aligned. She helps leaders see what is really happening beneath the surface, make better choices, and build organizations that can grow without becoming heavier, harder, or more chaotic.

Co-FounderThe Power Shift Inc.
2026 - Present

The Power Shift™ exists to give leaders the ability to see how power actually operates in their organizations, not how it's supposed to work. We bring together people who are navigating the same reality: systems shaped by fear, survival patterns that work until they don't, and the daily choice between integrity and staying employed. We put the right leaders, with the right tools, in the right rooms, to stop surviving and start seeing.
