Our Team

Ally Weiser Ally Wieser Hernandez, CLC, MCC, CCT
Founder & President, WCI Coach Training School
Board Certified Coach

Coach Ally Wieser Hernandez is responsible for the strategic management and direction of WCI. Her work has always been about thinking differently, building, exploring, expanding, and creating business and life strategies to help others grow themselves and their businesses. For over a decade she lived and worked in NYC and London creating strategies and marketing offerings for both ad agencies and as a consultant to solopreneurs and small to medium size businesses, delivering double and triple digit increases in revenue time and time again. An adrenal collapse encouraged her to obtain further education in nutritional therapy and coaching. This opportunity enabled her to transition her consulting business into a coaching business.  While training at a few coaching schools, teaching at another and leaving a partnership as COO with another she realized that there was a gap in the marketplace for a coach training program that taught both high quality coaching skills AND how to actually make money doing this for a career. So, she launched World Coach Institute, the first school to offer Niche Coach Training and Coach Business Development Mentoring. Her coaching practice focuses in the areas of career, business development, life, wellness and enlightened living. She was also voted Best Life Coach, 2008 by the Miami Sun Post, studied Pre-Med Psychology and holds a BA in Finance from Loyola University New Orleans.


“Thanks to the Team WCI for making this happen. There is a lot of work that is put in to making a great organization and in WCI it shows. The teachers, curriculum and materials are awesome. ”

Kim Gray Kim Gray, ICF ACC, CPC, CMAC
Instructor

As an Introvert herself, Kim loves working with Introvert Coaches who shy away from marketing and networking because of having 'monsters' under the bed. She helps tackle the 'monsters' keeping your business standing still with custom marketing strategies, fun networking techniques, and a plan for getting things done. Since 2007, she has worked with coach clients to slay their fears around networking in big groups, boost their confidence to connect with prospects, and show up online with savvy and skill so they convert prospects into clients almost overnight. It's not uncommon for coaches to welcome their first paying premium client within weeks of starting their coaching relationship with me and for them to celebrate how fun and easy it was to get the mission accomplished systematically. 

She remembers when she went through her coach training at WCI and how excited she was to learn how to coach the right way. Before WCI, she thought she was coaching when she was really consulting. That aha moment was the game changer for her. She wants to be there when you get your aha moment in her class. She so loved her WCI coach training journey that she was thrilled to accept WCI’s invitation to be an instructor. There is no greater joy to her than to be able to give back when the opportunity presents itself. Thus, it will be her honor to accompany you on your coach training journey with WCI.
