Our Founder
Tanya Gomez Reifarth, Founder & Principal Consultant
Tanya Gomez Reifarth is the Founder and Principal Consultant of TISOMO Consulting Group, a boutique leadership and organizational advisory firm focused on building leadership capacity and organizational capability in complex environments.
With over two decades of experience spanning executive leadership, operations, human resources, organizational development, and coaching, Tanya brings a rare combination of strategic rigor, operational fluency, and human-centered discernment to her work. She partners with leaders and organizations navigating growth, transition, and increased complexity.
Her work is grounded in a simple but demanding belief: leadership effectiveness is shaped not only by what leaders know, but by how they think, decide, and relate under pressure.
A Practitioner’s Lens
Before founding TISOMO, Tanya built her leadership foundation in the private sector, holding senior roles with direct responsibility for operations, people strategy, and execution. Since founding TISOMO, she has partnered with organizations across healthcare, education, government, and the private sector—often working concurrently within complex systems while consulting alongside executive teams.
These experiences shaped her conviction that many challenges labeled as “people issues” are, in fact, failures of leadership clarity and system design. Tanya works at the intersection of strategy, behavior, and culture, helping leaders examine how decisions ripple through teams, systems, and outcomes.
Clients describe her presence as thoughtful, grounded, and direct. She creates space for clarity without minimizing complexity and challenges leaders to expand perspective while remaining accountable to real-world results.
An Evidence-Based, Systems-Aware Approach
Tanya’s practice is informed by evidence-based coaching, organizational research, and systems thinking. She draws from established leadership and organizational scholarship while remaining firmly anchored in practical application.
Her work reflects a deep respect for leadership maturity, psychological safety, decision quality, and the realities leaders face when theory meets execution. Rather than offering prescriptive solutions, Tanya works with leaders to strengthen their capacity to think more clearly, navigate tension more effectively, and lead with intention across complexity.
A Founder’s Commitment
TISOMO reflects Tanya’s conviction that leadership carries responsibility—not only for results, but for how decisions shape people, culture, and long-term outcomes.
Her role in each engagement is intentional. She remains closely involved in direction, discernment, and decision quality—ensuring the work delivered under the TISOMO name reflects the rigor, ethics, and discipline she expects of herself.
Education, Credentials, and Professional Commitment
Tanya holds an MBA and a Master of Arts in Executive Leadership, along with advanced training in evidence-based coaching and organizational development. She is both a Board Certified Coach (BCC) and Professional Certified Coach (PCC), and holds senior-level HR and project leadership credentials, including SHRM-SCP and PMP.
Beyond client work, Tanya contributes to the broader leadership ecosystem through professional service, mentoring, and thought leadership—reflecting her belief that leadership carries responsibility not only to organizations, but to the people and systems they influence.
Why TISOMO Consulting Group
TISOMO partners with leaders who understand that leadership is not a role to perform, but a capacity to be developed—over time, with intention, and in service of stronger organizations and systems.
A Note from the Founder
Leadership is rarely simple, especially when the stakes are high and the context is complex. My work is about partnering with leaders to pause long enough to see clearly, decide deliberately, and lead in ways that strengthen both people and systems.
That is the work of TISOMO.
