Professional accomplishments include...
...15年前开始从一个空白的画布, I've led the growth of a thriving network across the MEAI region. This has included delivering hundreds of certification programs, consulting with multiple international organisations and creating space for people to create ripples to support the practice of EQ throughout the region.
...In 2014 we held the first "EQ Cafe" in Dubai and it has been incredibly gratifying to see these community events spread globally, lead today by 100s of Network Leaders. In 2017 we hosted the first EQ Summit in Dubai, attended by people from over 25 countries.
...I am an ICF PCC coach and also the co-author of the Six Seconds' EQ Advanced Facilitator and EQ Consultant pathways, as well as author of the EQ Insights series of programs.
A few past experiences...Prior to joining Six Seconds, I worked in the hospitality sector gaining a wide spectrum of
experience in consulting, and supporting organisational change, service, and building world-class teams throughout the Middle East in addition to Africa, India, UK, Europe, China, Russia and America. In 2004 I founded Dynamic Learning in Dubai and this became the platform from which I joined Six Seconds.
