MY STORY
ON A PERSONAL NOTE
Born into a large family with diverse personalities, being sociable and curious was something I inherited. My desire to understand the world pushed me to ask questions and attempt to understand how people think, feel, and behave. The more questions I posed, the more apparent it became that every single individual – regardless of whether in the same household or not – could have vastly different perspectives and ways of doing things.
And me – I’m a contrarian at heart who finds joy in challenging the norm and the status quo. As I matured and interacted with a wide range of people from all over the world, I realized that beauty truly radiates in the presence of diversity.
While many struggle to conform, I’ve come to deeply appreciate those who stand out. The curious child within me continues to thrive, always eager to meet new people and engage in thought-provoking discussions. So, I have one question for you: How do you plan to stand out today?
ON A PROFESSIONAL NOTE
I am an accomplished strategist and coach with a passion for guiding both individuals and organizations towards their aspirations. My journey began with a Business degree from the American University of Beirut, setting the stage for over a decade of enriching experiences in the world of strategy and leadership.Throughout my tenure at esteemed organizations such as Deloitte & Touche (M.E.) and NEMA Holding, I spearheaded complex multi-stakeholder strategy projects across the MENA region. My collaboration with reputable clients not only sharpened my critical thinking but also introduced me to diverse industries, cultivating adaptability in navigating a variety of work cultures and environments. As a leader, my philosophy centers on fostering a nurturing and synergistic atmosphere that drives team members towards excellence.
Amidst the corporate whirlwind, I faced bouts of anxiety, stress, and an imbalanced lifestyle. I sacrificed personal moments and celebrations, consumed by my hunger for knowledge and hard work. Soon enough, I realized that proficiency alone does not bring fulfillment. This led me on a journey of self-discovery where I found my true calling: partnering up with my clients to help them embrace change and triumph over obstacles encountered along the way.
Today, I proudly stand as a devoted strategist and coach who is wholeheartedly committed to empowering business professionals, executives, and organizations to realize their aspirations.
Are you ready to join me on an exciting journey of exploration, growth, and achievement?
My VALUES
Trust
A great coaching relationship is one that is built on trust. Clients confide in me with personal details, which I do not take for granted. Confidentiality and trust are key to building an open and collaborative partnership.
Empathy
I actively listen to my clients with genuine interest and without judgment. Gaining insight into a client's thoughts and sentiments is the first step towards change.
Integrity
I maintain the highest ethical standards while working with clients. I interact with my clients with honesty and transparency, ensuring that my intentions align with their best interests.
Responsibility
I acknowledge the responsibility I have towards my clients and the impact I may have on their overall journey. It is a two-way street where both the client and I share responsibility towards your team's goals.
Curiosity
We cannot change what we don't know, and it takes courage to be curious and delve into the various layers within ourselves. I accompany my clients on a journey of self-discovery towards personal growth.
