With A Tailored Approach
That Benefits An Entire Organisation
Coming from the heart of startups, I know what is required to support the success of organisations. My solutions provide a competitive advantage and strategic way forward so that you can scale your organisation with confidence.
I understand that every business is unique, and each has their own definition of success. I dig deep to understand the organisation as a whole, identify needs that may not be obvious, and tailor my approach to achieve what is required for success.
Empowering leaders with the necessary tools and skills to succeed creates a positive flow-on effect to every member of the team. While my focus is to empower you as the leader, I find reward in your success and the difference we make for the organisation as a whole.

What Clients Say
“Yasmeen (Yaz), was engaged by us to assist a new portfolio company better understand the value and power that can be created through clear and aligned culture translated into values and behaviours that drive daily decision making. Yaz took the senior leadership team through a series of assisted workshops that contributed meaningfully to better understanding each other, the organisational DNA, and in turn helping shape our 5 year strategic growth plan. Yaz’s style and approach was very informed, organised, thoughtful and actionable. I have no hesitation in recommending her to any commercial organisation.”
– Shaf Dewani, Principal at Edison Partners | Investor
“Yasmeen’s session was incredibly engaging, pitched at just the right level for the participants and included a lot of really actionable insights based on real-world examples that people could take away and use tomorrow.”
– Hugh Stephens, General Partner at Galileo Ventures | Investor
“Our experience with Yasmeen was first class. After receiving investment we worked with her to define the company culture that had been organically developed over the years but was not written. Evolving from a family mindset to a sophisticating and high growth business required the definition of “what was important” to the founders of the business. Yasmeen took the founders and then the wider team on a journey that has resulted with a defined Vision and Core Values that the company live by. By having these written and getting team buy-in we have specific hiring criteria as we know what attitudes are front of mind, and through an increased hiring period, the company has been able to get new team members onboarded to the culture within the first week.
The journey Yasmeen took us on was extremely impactful to our business and I would recommend to anyone.”
– Guy Nappa, COO at Oz Hair and Beauty | Client
“My coaching sessions with Yasmeen were eye-opening. Her guidance enabled me to enhance my confidence and executive presence. She offered personalized support and was an invaluable sounding board. I wholeheartedly recommend her coaching services to anyone looking for someone to go above and beyond for them, and to elevate their professional presence.”
– Kaleen Baker, People Operations at Vercel | Client
