Why is it important?

If you do not develop yourself as a leader, there may be several consequences for you and those around you...

1. You will face stagnation in your career, finding it difficult to advance or take on new challenges.

2. You will suffer from lack of influence, you might struggle implementing your ideas.

3. You will miss opportunities for personal and professional growth, because of lack of clarity in your vision.

4. You may have difficulty in managing your team, resulting in decreased productivity and increase in conflicts.

5. You will suffer from low stakeholder engagement, everyone, who is attached to you could be a resource for meaning and progress, but you will find difficulty in capitalizing on your relationships.

What do I have to offer?

Through One-on-One, small group sessions, or relatively longer courses, I can work with you as a teacher, mentor or coach to help you deal with one or more of your challenges related to your pesonal and professional life.

One-on-One Leadership Excellence

A value based, action focused approach

I have been spending some one-on-one time with Dr Yahya Noori, as we frequently travel home together. I believe that discussions during these meetings have helped me significantly improve myself. They brought clarity to my vision, and synchronicity to my actions. With his deep insights and intriguing question, I was able to focus my efforts on my personal and professional development, while ignoring and detaching from what irrelevant happens around. His approach is value based and action focused and it helps you make the right choices at crucial times...

12 Steps to leadership excellence is an online course run in collaboration with CorTeach.  We have had two cycles of the course and have received an excellent feedback from our participants.

A life changing course...

“I had never expected how wonderful it would be to take an online experience; I just thought it would be a simple session which would be forgotten over a period of few days once it ends. But it was an exceptional blend of such outstanding, humble and refined masterminds who designed this module with perfection. This module offered hands on, immersive experience that allowed me to apply leadership principles in real-world scenarios.”

Throughout this process, Prof. Noori’s contributions have been remarkable. His conversations with the students on such diverse topics such as emotional intelligence and strategic thinking were extremely effective. He provided unmitigated access for mentorship to students and routinely shared with them relevant information to enhance their learning experience.  I personally learned a lot from Prof. Noori and always looked forward to his valuable feedback about this program.

A life changing experience

ابتدا یہ تھی کہ میں تھا اور دعوی علم کا

انتہا یہ ہے کہ اس دعوی پے شرمایا بہت

Today we had our last class. 

Before joining this journey I had only one thing in my mind and that is to just add another degree to my resume so that I l be prefered over others in an organization where i am working right now or where I l go in the future.

Thank you Sir for changing this limited mind set. When I was speaking to the audience today I had only one thing in my mind. I l teach others whatever I have learned in these sessions.

I have spoken to the COO of my organization and asked her to give me one session a week for atleast 5 weeks where I l be teaching organizational behavior to the managers, doctors and nursing staffs. The last will be a guest speaker's session. Insha Allah.

Dr. Faisal Mahmood
