Maliek van Laar, PMP, CMP, CSM
Founder
I'm Maliek van Laar, Founder of Whole Power Living, where I help businesses, associations, nonprofits, healthcare organizations, and mission-driven organizations turn complex projects and events into seamless, successful experiences.
With more than 20 years of experience in project management, event strategy, and operations, I partner with organizations to bring clarity, structure, and confidence to every stage of a project—from initial planning to flawless execution.
My approach is guided by The Power Method™, a strategic framework I developed to help organizations align their vision, streamline operations, and execute with purpose. Whether managing a national conference, leading a strategic initiative, or improving operational processes, my focus is always the same: creating practical solutions that deliver meaningful results.
I hold the Project Management Professional (PMP), Certified Meeting Professional (CMP), and Certified ScrumMaster (CSM) certifications, along with a Certificate in Women's Entrepreneurship from Cornell University. More importantly, I believe in building trusted partnerships and creating calm, organized leadership for every client I serve.
When I'm not leading projects, you'll find me traveling, exploring museums, discovering local restaurants, or creating resources that help professionals and organizations work with greater clarity and intention.
Let's bring your next project to life—with strategy, purpose, and confidence.
