Mentoring & Coaching

Gianna is a never-ending source of fresh thinking. She guides you to see a scenario from unconsidered angles, and in doing so unlocks unimagined solutions. A conversation with her is always energizing, inspiring and reassuring. London White Collar Associate

Coaching has helped me tremendously with managing professional and personal anxieties, developing career goals and managing my workload. Gianna’s excellent listening skills, empathetic and caring nature, trustworthiness, and background in the law all contribute to her coaching being extremely helpful. Coaching serves as a great resource that the firm provides and very much helps lawyers become the best they can be. Philadelphia FRE Associate

I have been attending coaching for more than a year now and it has been the sturdiest of anchors through some turbulent waters for me. It’s a designated space where I can share without inhibitions, self-reflect without judgment, and get advice that prioritizes me as a human being above all else. Gianna elevates this to an artform. She is empathetic, astute, professional and thinks deeply about issues rather than rattling off generic advice. London Trial, Investigations, and Securities Associate

Coaching helped me figure out what I really wanted out of my professional career at Dechert, and gave me the tools to forge the path to get there. Gianna is understanding and insightful, and I never doubted that what we discussed would stay between us. Thanks to coaching, I was able to successfully make a key change in my career path, and am significantly happier and more satisfied for it, both professionally and personally.
