Melba is an experienced facilitator of behavior-change programs that use goal setting to drive results and is certified by Mastery Systems Inc. and Leadership Management, Inc.
She has an exceptional ability to listen to the client’s total message and make it easier for the client to become clear about their goals and highly motivated internally to take action on their plans. Melba works with her business partner and husband, Edwards Holliday, but her true passion is bridled most of the time when working with her other coaching partner, a 1000-pound horse.
Melba is an Equine Facilitated Leadership Coach and she helps professional clients learn about their leadership and management style through interactions on the ground with a horse. A horse will mirror your energy, attitude and behavior. They react immediately to your emotions. Since they are herd animals, they make great learning partners for developing leadership and management skills.

Melba has been a Partner of Atlantic Leadership Group since 1994. Melba holds a B.A. Degree in Health Services Administration from Florida International University.
