"You will immediately feel her energy" - D.L., Long time client
For more than 20 years, Farnia has worked with international clients on strategic issues related to transformation and change. As a senior leader at several Fortune 100 and boutique consulting firms, she led, trained, and coached teams in more than 33 countries. A global citizen framed by the first-gen experience, she understands intersectionality and the impacts of cultural nuances. Lived experiences combined with learning at Penn Engineering, NYU Stern, UN Worldview Institute, Co-Active Training Institute, and HPI have collectively informed her work as an Executive & Leadership Coach and entrepreneur of 10 years. She specializes as a resilience and Certified High-Performance Coach and facilitator where she’s helped
-
individuals and small business leaders to trust their instincts,
-
“first” and “only” leaders to acknowledge their value, celebrate their whole selves, and take ownership for their impact, and
-
newly formed teams and businesses to accelerate past false justifications for “why” they can not so that they can experience the “why not”.
Farnia is the Founder and President of The Lenserf Group (TLG), a certified woman and minority owned leadership development training, coaching, and management consulting firm. The Lenserf Group is a 2022 Comcast Rise award recipient. TLG is also one of two firms partnering to build leadership capacity and improve resilience for the City of Philadelphia through an inclusive and accessible emerging leaders’ program. She also serves as an advisory board member of people strategy for WeGlobal, a EuropeAid consultancy and Firekeeper (Mastery program faculty) for Positive Intelligence, an Inc 5000 ranked mental fitness training company.
Grounded in passion and purpose, Farnia enjoys distance running, hiking, and volunteer work in her communities. She was a 2023 Penn Forward Philadelphia event Host Committee member. Currently she is a member of the Career Committee for the Trustees Council of Penn Women, lead of the ICF Philadelphia Center City Community of Coaches, Board Representative for the transition/succession committee at her church, and volunteer at a food pantry.
