Who we are

Hi! I’m Belma McCaffrey - Founder, Executive Coach, and Leadership Program Developer

I work with leaders to help them master decision-making under pressure, build emotionally intelligent teams, and foster resilient, high-performance cultures.

I’ve supported dozens of brands with leadership development, team effectiveness and wellbeing, including organizations in luxury fashion, media, food, and finance, such as Owyn, Oath, Burberry and The Financial Times.

I’ve also coached hundreds of individuals at all levels - from the C-suite to individual contributors.

Prior to building Work Bigger, I spent 13+ years working in business development and strategy roles at companies like the Associated Press, GroupM, and Conde Nast.

I bring a unique blend of business rigor and people development to every engagement.

I have an MBA from Baruch College, and a BA from Syracuse University. I also hold a Certificate in Human Resources Strategy from Cornell University, and hold multiple coaching and facilitation certifications from the NeuroLeadership Institute and COR.

On a personal note, I’m a refugee born in Albania. I moved to the U.S. when I was 8 years old, and I live in NJ with my husband and two kids.

Kristin Chasky

Career Coach

After 10+ years in sales, marketing and product development within startups and multi-million dollar corporations, Kristin reached a level of “success” only to find herself still in the viscous cycle of burnout.

Eventually, Kristin found Belma and signed up for private coaching. Her life was transformed. Using the tools and techniques she developed in coaching, she has created a life and career she loves.

Kristin decided to become a coach so she can share her knowledge and experience to help others create a life and career that they love. She is certified in Brain-Based coaching with the Neuroleadership Institute and is a trained meditation teacher.
