Angel City announced today its partnership with The Grand, a group coaching platform and community enabling leaders to gain confidence and clarity as they navigate work and life. As the team’s Official Leadership Coaching Partner and Supporting Level Partner, The Grand will offer group coaching to Angel City players, staff and non-profit partners.

Additionally, The Grand will also offer coaching to help players and staff build confidence to better navigate major career and life transitions.
“The Grand and Angel City are mission aligned, and we see this partnership as an opportunity to create a collective movement. As a mom of two young girls, I was especially drawn to the organization and am excited that we can work towards creating a world where no one has to walk alone in work and life,” said Co-Founder and CEO Anita Hossain Choudhry. “We believe that every person should have the chance to live up to their true potential and have a deep sense of purpose and belonging.”
As a part of the club's Angel City Sponsorship Model, where 10% of each sponsorship is reallocated back into the community, The Grand will also provide coaching services and workshops to Angel City’s network of nonprofit partners.
“Professional and personal growth is a really important piece of building a team and a culture, particularly at a start-up like Angel City that is growing rapidly,” said Alex Mallen, Angel City’s Director of Partnerships. “It is really important to our leadership to provide growth opportunities to both the front office and our players.The Grand is doing important work to create more access to professional coaching beyond senior-level professionals, which is so needed, particularly as industries and professionals reinvent what it looks like to be a productive and well-supported employee and team member.”
