Z. Ebrahim, CEO
I write this feeling so empowered and supported, as a business owner. In fact I see myself more as a leader now, after my coaching sessions with Marwaan.
​
I feel it is important for other CEO's and business owners to know that this very unique and empowering service is out there and available, and all you need to do is to be open to it.
​
Marwaan has a very unique approach and ability, as well as deep insight into people’s behaviour and what makes them tick. His approach is to understand the reason behind each individuals behaviour as he believes to inspire and motivate change in others you need to speak to their reason and not your own, nor should you speak to their behaviour alone. So his approach is to understand their fears and desires and build from that. I wish I could do what he does in terms of understanding people on such a deep and profound level but I guess that’s why I see him as gifted in what he does. I have never experienced someone that is so intuitively aligned to understanding others. So when it comes to managing a team, with so much diversity, not only in culture and background, but in their personality too, it can be quite overwhelming and draining.
With his help, the task at hand has become so much easier. As you talk to each person’s reasons and in that way guide them to be the best they can be, to not only benefitting themselves but also the business as a whole. My level of emotional intelligence towards my team and employees has improved tremendously. Simply because I can see where others are coming from. His knowledge and insight has allowed me to predict an individuals behaviour when addressing sensitive issues I may have encountered with certain staff. This has allowed me to prepare in the best possible way when addressing any staff related issues with my team.
With his understanding of business and its people, this has also allowed me to progress faster, make decisions with much more insight and conviction. The result is me being much more confident, when it comes to my management style, my team and the business as a whole. His insight into leadership and what makes a great leader has been invaluable. I have improved in many aspects in terms of leadership. Though the aspect which I feel has improved the most is the manner in which I communicate to my team. Marwaan puts great emphasis on being empathetic and has taught me various techniques of how to communicate to the staff in a much more uplifting and positive way. Being a leader can be lonely, having to make tough calls, so having someone in your corner, supporting and guiding you, makes such a difference as you navigate your business to the healthiest place possible. I feel deeply inspired knowing it’s all possible and we are on our way there.
​
The coaching sessions have been invaluable and I would highly recommend other business owners and entrepreneurs to give it a go. You have so much to gain and nothing to lose, well that’s been my experience.
We owe it to ourselves to be the best we can be, build strong businesses and empower ourselves and others, boosting the economy and in turn the world.

Y. Johaar, Chemist
The skill set and tools that Marwaan has helped me with, has not only allowed
me to excel as a leader/manager in my career as a Production Chemist at Faizyme Laboratories but has also assisted me in my role as School Governing Body Chairperson at my children’s school, as well as in my duty as a leader in my local community.
My journey with Marwaan has allowed me to become a better leader, one that is more assertive, but at the same time has the emotional maturity to get the most out of people, to guide and motivate them and influence them in a positive manner, of which ultimately, can only be beneficial when working in a group or team. Further to this, I have also observed an improvement in my social relationships with friends, family etc. Marwaan has taught me the importance of communication and body language not only in social and work circles but also with my teenage son!
Thanks Marwaan
