Did you know that over 40% of CEOs and managers fail within 18 months of their appointment? This alarming trend has increased demand for professional help, such as executive leadership coaching programmes. Individuals in a varied city like Abu Dhabi, with over 200 nationalities, seek to move into senior leadership roles amidst a backdrop of a strong economy, diversified career options, and a dynamic lifestyle.
However, the transfer to executive-level positions necessitates a considerable shift in concentration towards leadership, with 80% of a leader’s time spent on strategic thinking. This emphasises the significance of competent assistance.
At Kompass Consultancy, our Arabic executive coaches provide tailored coaching programmes to help you overcome these hurdles and excel in the competitive landscape.
An executive coach provides a professional service that helps executives or high-potential employees develop self-awareness, leadership skills, and other high-level abilities necessary to succeed and achieve the goals related to their corporate positions.
This guidance is action-based, where the leadership coach will focus on altering an individual’s thinking patterns and encourage tangible work and progress - with the ability to navigate change or handle difficult challenges related to their positions.
All in all, our bilingual coach will aim to nurture intelligent, capable, and ambitious employees who are ready to take their place as leaders in the business world.

“Throughout my time in Australia, I had been working on my career in areas that I was good at, not what I was interested in. Working with Gaj on how to best demonstrate my leadership skills and to sell myself, I was able to get promoted within my top tier consulting firm to higher levels to support the Partners on highly strategic projects across the region. ”
“I was lost in my career and frustrated with where I was in my life. I was referred onto Kompass to receive career coaching and over the next 2 months, I managed to build a process for me to find that next role. It helped me to break my old patterns and unhealthy thoughts. I now have the tools to use for the rest of my life!”
“Kompass helped me to get to the job offer stage! I was getting to interviews and just not able to move forward to the acceptance stage. I got to practice my interviews in a safe environment with the help of an interview guide and the feedback given to me was so helpful in modifying my responses. Thank you Kompass!”
