"The process transformed my understanding of leadership, my expectations and my communication style.  It has proven essential to my development to be able to work with a coach who could provide flexible and responsive space to examine long and mid-term strategy, day-to-day tactics, and even life-work balance.  Amina's ability to bring warmth, insight and multifaceted experience to the process makes her a uniquely-abled and strong coach.  I have incorporated her words of wisdom and thoughtful advice into my ongoing practice and I give her my high and unconditional recommendation."

"An organization is only as strong as its leadership. Amina, through her coaching, has made me a stronger leader. She comes to the table with an open mind and helps you find your strengths, your voice and helps to guide you in the best direction. There is no hidden agenda. She comes with a rich history that allows her to see things with a different lens. She empowered me to be a better leader and better boss and a better visionary for the organization.  Amina is very skilled at bringing the thing you don’t see about yourself, your organizations, and your leadership out of the dark."
