Building World-Class teams with simple secrets from Psychology: the science of why people do what they do, how people grow into leaders, what differentiates survivors from victims and what heroes do to achieve extraordinary success!

​

I am an expert in the behavioral sciences and lend my expertise to individuals and organizations. Life is a creative work of art and it is our gift to paint the masterpiece we desire. The life of an organization/team is its people and it is my craftmanship to groom these individuals into masterpieces and unify them together in a coherent jigsaw puzzle of a high performance organization.

 

If you have been disappointed by "feel good" programs and "motivational" gurus, you have come to the right place. Band-Aid solutions are not my cup of tea. As a registered psychologist and scientist, my practice must evidently be grounded in good science and data. Trending today and tanking tomorrow is not cool! The people insights and organization practices I champion are definitively evidence-based.

​

Courageous dialogue and authentic conversations are integral in my consulting approach to diagnosing the root of the problem. Addressing the cause rather than just the symptoms. Both individual diagnosis and organizational diagnosis take this same hallmark approach.

​

Everyone walks their own path to greatness and it is not for us to judge their personal journey. While there are no absolute rights or wrongs, there are well studied practices to ensure you reach your destination.

​

Reach out to me and I'd be delighted to lend my expertise to your personal or organization's journey.

Every successful leader in history was once raw metal, crafted in the burning hot fire, made into a sharpened sword. They went through trials and tribulations, and this shaped their leadership practice.

​

Leadership is not a title, it is not an authority - Leadership is a practice, it is what you do!

​

Leadership is not about being in charge, leadership is caring for those who are in our charge!

Business Presentation

CEO & Board Advisory

CEOs and MDs are truly peerless in their roles. It is tough to climb to the top and even tougher to keep your game at the top and this is where I come in to support you. I help aspiring candidates to transition to the top. I counsel and advise you in your tenure to excel in your role, guide you in leading through crisis and leading through large scale transformation. The stress is real and the echo chamber may be deafening at the top, I help as your sounding board, making sense of the chaos. The typical tenure of a C-suite today has drastically shortened to about 5 years as compared to when 10 years was the norm, and so the runway has drastically shortened and C-suites are incredibly pressured to perform. I will coach you to leave a lasting legacy in an expedited time frame.

Talent Management

There is an established science to talent management and this is where I separate the wheat from the chaff. There is tremendous noise in the talent management space and few have established validity, reliability and impact. I help your organization build a system of Attracting, Assessing, Selecting and Developing the very best talent. I am an expert in psychometric design and building multi-modal assessment centers. There is no question that well-designed assessment centers are predictive of on-the-job performance as well as future performance. I am careful to design assessments that avoids adverse impact.

Executive Coaching

Leaders aren't born, they are made. How do you grow from simply effectiveness to greatness? The Hero's Journey encapsulates the metamorphosis of an every day man or woman into a leader, and the emergence of a hero who rises above the fires of tribulations. Most people derail in their journey: I support you through expert coaching, as a compass who keeps you to your True North in your leadership journey. As we progress to more advanced coaching, you learn how to make extraordinary things happen in organizations and how to unleash greatness in others.

Association Game

Personality Profiling

"Who am I?" - the age old question we find ourselves asking. Our personality have a critical impact in our personal and professional lives. There are 2 dimensions to our personality: the part in which we see ourselves and the part in which others sees us. In each of us, exists a bright side and a dark side to our personality. Our personality can cause us a lot of pain and setbacks in our lives, yet they can also bring us success and relationships. All of us have a chance to shape our personality but in the study of personality plasticity, data shows that our predominant personality becomes stable at around the age of 30. So while we cannot change our personality in adulthood, we can change the way in which our personality interacts with the environment and our behaviors. I provide you with this insight. The personality assessment I deliver is a psychometric and legally defensible: completely different from the many free tests in the market. Power over your life comes from insight into your personality, putting you in control.

Psychotherapy Session

Psychotherapy

We live in a world where trauma is part and parcel of our everyday lives. We experience traumas both micro and macro, directly and indirectly. Wars, regional conflicts, pandemics, economic recessions, retrenchments, workplace accidents, bullying, divorces, unhappy relationships, violence, toxic social media etc. Therapy is not just for the mentally ill but for people who are trying to survive or succeed in this world. Psychotherapy helps us access the fragmented part of our selves, the repressed memories and feelings, and the two different parts of our minds: the conscious and unconscious minds. Psychotherapy can help us unchain and discard the baggages that we have been carrying with us hampering our success and full potential in life. Therapy can also help us to find more effective ways to cope, relate and behave. It helps us to overcome the anxieties that are plaguing us in our lives. Psychotherapy is highly effective in helping individuals build self-esteem and confidence.

Career and Life Coaching

Life is a creative work of art and you deserve to paint the masterpiece you want. You deserve it and you can own it. The question is how? The approach begins with personal insight that is developed from awareness, followed by acceptance and a call to action. I provide the insight and awareness to you through the results of a series of assessments such as the Career Leader tool. I validate the results with you and then coach you to execute the plan. Setting goals does not actually get you to your goals! There is a deeper psyche to what motivates and drives people. I approach coaching from all 4 levels of (i) Cognition, (ii) Emotion, (iii) Behaviors, and (iv) Systems - anchored in neuroscience. In executing your masterpiece, you will be faced with challenges, and your resilience matters. We live in a VUCA world: volatile, uncertain, complex and ambiguous. Without resilience, we cannot traverse this journey to our ultimate destination. Your resilience is a result of your DNA: personality, values, beliefs, mental models, physiology and social-economic conditions. I can reveal your DNA and help you build the requisite resilience for your success.
