You have reached the summit of your career. Now, the challenge isn’t climbing higher, it is leading deeper. Move beyond standard business advice and unlock sustainable performance through evidence-based psychology.
— Carl Jung
Most executives I work with are already successful. They are VPs, Directors, and C-Suite leaders who have mastered operational excellence. Yet, they often hit a “psychological ceiling.”
The strategies that got you to this level, working harder, driving faster, and relying on intellect alone are rarely the tools that will sustain you at the top.
As an Executive Coach in Dubai & Abu Dhabi, I often see leaders facing:
True executive leadership coaching is not about teaching you business strategy; you already know that. It is about upgrading your internal operating system to handle the complexity of your role.
Many coaches offer accountability checklists. My practice offers transformation.
To be an effective Executive Coach, one must go beyond the surface. My methodology integrates Executive Coaching with Clinical Psychology, Neuroscience, and NLP. We do not just look at what you are doing; we look at who you are being.
We explore the “Immunity to Change” the hidden, competing commitments that keep you stuck in old patterns despite your desire to grow. By bringing these to the surface, we clear the path for genuine, sustainable behavioural change.

A structured yet flexible pathway to high performance.
Phase 1: Diagnostic & Discovery
We begin by establishing a baseline. Using tools like the Leadership Circle Profile (LCP) or EQ-i 2.0, we gather data on how you view yourself versus how you are perceived by the system around you. We identify the gap between your current impact and your desired legacy.
Phase 2: The Deep Work (Recoding)
This is the core of the engagement. As your Executive Coach, I act as both a mirror and a challenger. We use techniques from NLP and adult development theory to:
Integration & Sustainability
Insight without action is merely interesting. We focus on integrating these new behaviours into your daily leadership reality. We test, refine, and cement these changes so they become your natural state, not a forced effort.
Investments at this level must yield returns. Clients who engage in this deep work typically report:
Organisational Impact: A trickle-down effect where your improved leadership creates a culture of psychological safety and performance in your team.
If you are ready to explore the psychology of your own performance,I invite you to a preliminary conversation. Let us discuss if we are the right partners for this phase of your career.
A mentor typically provides answers based on their own specific industry experience (“Here is what I did”). An Executive Coach is an expert in the process of human performance. I do not tell you how to run your P&L; I help you remove the internal interference that stops you from running it effectively.
The world’s top athletes all have coaches, not because they are failing, but because they are competing at a level where small margins matter. If you are looking for an Executive Coach in Abu Dhabi or Dubai, it is likely because you know that “good enough” is a threat to your continued growth. Coaching protects your asset, your mind, against stagnation.
Absolute confidentiality is the cornerstone of my practice. Whether the engagement is self-funded or sponsored by your organisation, the content of our sessions remains strictly between us. This provides the psychological safety required to address the real issues.
Yes. While I am physically based as in Dubai, a significant portion of my practice serves clients across the GCC and internationally via video conferencing. The methodology remains equally effective in a virtual setting.
This is distinctly Executive Coaching, focused on future performance and professional impact. However, I use clinical tools because standard coaching often fails to address the root cause of behaviour. While therapy focuses on healing the past, my work focuses on “recoding” the past to unlock your future capacity as a leader. We do not dwell on history; we use it to understand your current “operating system.”
Business decisions are rarely purely logical; they are driven by subconscious patterns. NLP (Neuro-Linguistic Programming) and hypnotherapy allow us to access the 95% of brain activity that runs on autopilot. For a C-Suite leader, this might look like removing a deep-seated fear of conflict or “imposter syndrome” that no amount of logical strategising has fixed. It is about efficiency and changing the neural pathway rather than just fighting it.
Lack of time is often a symptom of the very issue we need to solve: the inability to detach, delegate, or enforce boundaries. My sessions are designed to be high-impact intermissions in your week, a space to slow down so you can speed up. Most clients find that the hour spent coaching recovers multiple hours of lost productivity caused by reactive decision-making.
Deep behavioural change does not happen overnight. While single sessions can provide clarity, shifting a “Leadership Operating System” typically requires a 6 to 12-month partnership. This allows us time to identify the “Immunity to Change,” test new behaviours in high-stakes environments, and cement them into your natural leadership style.
Absolutely. There is a documented “trickle-down” effect in Executive Leadership Coaching. When a senior leader evolves, becoming less reactive, more visionary, and psychologically safe, the culture of their entire division shifts. We often see retention rates rise and team conflict drop solely because the leader at the helm has changed their internal state.
I am an expert in human performance, not your specific technical field. Whether you are in Finance, Tech, or Construction, the psychological challenges of leadership, loneliness, decision fatigue, and stakeholder influence are universal. In fact, having an objective partner outside your industry often provides the clearest perspective, unclouded by technical jargon.
It is important to distinguish between a Business Coach and an Executive Coach. A business coach might advise you on what to do with your strategy. I focus on the person executing that strategy. I help you clear the cognitive bias, fear, or rigidity that prevents you from seeing the right strategy yourself. I trust you to know your business; I help you trust yourself to lead it.
This is the most common sentiment among the high-performing leaders I work with. External success (title, salary, reputation) often outpaces internal growth, creating a “meaning gap.” We work to realign your external achievements with your internal values, moving you from a place of “striving” to a place of “alignment” and sustainable energy.
We ground the intangible in data. Using the Leadership Circle Profile (LCP) or EQ-i 2.0, we measure your leadership competencies at the start and end of the engagement. We also rely on qualitative feedback from your peers and direct reports. You will know it is working when the same stressful situations no longer trigger the same stress response.
Many coaches work on the “surface structure” giving you scripts for difficult conversations or time management hacks. I work on the “deep structure” the subconscious identity and beliefs that generate those behaviours. If you are looking for a quick fix, I am likely not the right fit. If you are looking for the Best Executive Coach to facilitate a permanent upgrade in who you are as a leader, then we are aligned.
