FOUNDED BY
Dr. Fabiana Pereira Hotz
FOUNDER & CEO. AUTHOR, THE CLARISTRAT METHOD™
Claristrat was founded by Dr. Fabiana Pereira Hotz — an executive coach and senior advisor to Fortune 500 boards, founders, and C-suites. Over a 25-year career spanning Accenture, Deloitte, and high-growth scale-ups, Fabiana led more than $200M in transformation programs across finance, healthcare, technology, public sector, and consumer industries.
She built the Claristrat Method™ as a single architecture from the core concepts of systems thinking, depth psychology, adult development theory, and applied neuroscience. The result is a sustained effort to integrate what each intellectual tradition gets right into a single coherent architecture designed from the ground up for the realities of senior leadership.
"For most of my career, I was exceptional at producing results and genuinely poor at being present to the people around me. I understood professional competence deeply and personal integration barely at all. I built this method because I needed it. Going through that work myself showed me what is possible on the other side of it."

LEARNING PHILOSOPHY
How development
actually works.
Despite wishful-thinking.
MOST COACHING PROGRAMS
Assume development through linear knowledge acquisition and duty-based commitment.
THE CLARISTRAT METHOD™
Enables embodied leadership through an iterative, experience-based process.
The cycle is lived, not studied
Students move through Intentional Awareness, Dynamic Meaning, and Iterative Transformation — on themselves, with real stakes — before they hold the process for clients. You cannot teach what you have not inhabited. Each program is an actual growth experience.
+
Every session reflects the whole arc
The three-phase cycle operates at every scale simultaneously — the program, the engagement, the single session. Each session is a complete developmental loop. The client rehearses the process in every conversation — building the muscle until they can run it without the coach.
+
The cohort is a living system
Each cohort is a co-regulated learning environment, not a classroom. Faculty model the presence, inquiry, and feedback they are teaching. Psychological safety and developmental stretch are held simultaneously. The admission gate is required because the quality of the cohort is a core part of the learning.
+
Insight becomes capacity, not content
The goal is not graduates who know the method. It is practitioners who think systemically, act ethically, and serve generatively in environments of increasing complexity. The method becomes muscle memory, not reference material.
