“I am so pleased that such high quaility executive education program is offered in Madinah. I have found the Program for Advanced Leadership and Managment to be a very enriching and unique experience that addressed intlectual, spritual, emotional and physical aspects of leadership development”
“I am very pleased to join this course, have learned a lot and found this course very interesting. The quality of the global speakers, participants and the interaction with them was a great help for me to learn more. The mix of program activities, case studies and Q&A has helped me in the arena of leadership and decision making . Having a great education in a great place like Madinah is the best one can hope for.”
“I found PALM participants to be a truly high caliber group, similar to the executives we teach at Harvard, Wharton and INSEAD. They have shown great willingness to engage in high intellectual levels of discussion. It was a great opportunity for me to participate as a speaker.”
“The team of leadership development consultants and facilitators led by Prof Sattar Bawany has successfully sent across to our team the importance of leadership effectiveness on organizational success and taught the team how to develop their emotional and social intelligence skills, which is also in line with our internal training on the importance of emotional intelligence (EI) as a crucial element to deliver the best service to our guests. The break-out sessions and the personal follow-ups have been highly effective. The team’s commitment to the objectives originally set has translated into an engaging and positive course that has had an impact on the team. I have only received positive feedback from the team; it was a great learning experience for all of them. Thank you once again for the excellent dedication, flexibility, tactful approach, and passion in the communication of this course.”
“There is no doubt in my mind that this leadership development program would not have been as successful without the benefit of Prof Sattar Bawany’s excellent facilitation and delivery skills. Our leadership team was a bit hesitant at the initial mention of “consultants,” but they soon discovered that he did not tell us what to do; rather, he led our senior leadership team and me through a process of learning and analysis, helping us to develop a sense of self-awareness in each of us. Most importantly, because of the impactful program content, we have learned how to effectively lead, develop, and coach our people and ensure that our workforce is aligned with the company’s direction. As a result, we were better equipped to handle the tough market challenges that followed and are in a better position for greater sustained growth in the future.”
“The ‘Leadership That Gets Results’ program begins with a focus on self-awareness and the fundamentals of how leaders and organizations operate. It includes a powerful framework for understanding the leaders’ role in sustaining organizational performance and productivity, as well as introducing ways to intervene in and improve two fundamental types of company results that are critical for operating a successful company. The program uniquely puts into words many of the concepts that my senior leadership team across Asia Pacific deeply knows to be true. Now, having these concepts (including Emotional Intelligence Frameworks) in the forefront of my mind, I am a much more confident and careful communicator and in leading and engaging my leadership team towards achieving organizational results.”
“From my observations, having attended the various sessions and most importantly from the participants’ feedback, Prof Sattar Bawany is a terrifically engaging, knowledgeable, and inspiring Master Facilitator and High-Performance Sales Coach. His approach to personalizing sales, business development, and relationship-building activities, paired with the easy-to-digest and contemporary, practical, and highly workable solutions, has resonated well with the participants whose success is reliant on establishing trust with their clients and future business partners. The highly proven leadership development framework and tools will add value and bring about creative insights to any strategic business situation. I would strongly recommend Prof Bawany as the Facilitator and Executive Coach to any organization that requires sales training or a managerial leadership development program.”
“I am pleased to share that we have received very positive feedback from the participants for the 2 workshops for our Singapore Management Team. Generous amounts of information were shared, as well as dialogues for brainstorming sessions. Everyone had a refreshed outlook at different leadership styles and there was a lot more collaboration. In terms of delivery style, they felt that the facilitator was engaging and the programme was well structured. It also provided relevant tools and knowledge that can be applied in their respective business and professional situations scientifically and practically. Overall, the programme exceeded their expectations. Thank you for contributing to the development of our team and I look forward to future collaboration with you in terms of our learning needs.”
“All of a sudden, a deadly pandemic is at the centre of unprecedented worldwide disruptions. Inadvertently, the Covid‐19 has left organisations with little or no choice but to take the big leap towards digitalization. Prof. Sattar Bawany’s latest book on ‘Leadership in Disruptive Times’ is a timely sequel to his first publication, ‘Transforming the Next Generation of Leaders: Developing Future Leaders for a Disruptive, Digital‐Driven Era of the Fourth Industrial Revolution (Industry 4.0)’. In his latest offering, Prof. Bawany recognised the need for organisations to include digital leadership competencies for them to successfully implement transformative initiatives in a highly disruptive environment. He also examines the attributes and competencies of disruptive leadership as they maneuver through the disruptions caused by the Covid‐19 and the post-pandemic digital transformation in meeting the needs of the new normal. In developing successful organizational leadership in the new world order, this book provides valuable guidance and direction on the future way forward.”
“My congratulations to Professor Bawany for his new books, Leadership in Disruptive Times. This is a significant book, and its theme is overdue, particularly when severe disruptions are brought about by the recent Covid-19 pandemic. When times are good, solutions often come easy and straightforward. However, when rapid changes brought about by unexpected disruption, it is not clear if a solution even exists, let alone a good one. It takes an exceptional leader who has experienced disruptive times before to offer us insights and visions to move forward, and quality to be an effective leader. Readers will benefit enormously from Professor Bawany’s new book, and it is my firm belief that this pioneering book will be acknowledged as classic textbook/reference in leadership in disruptive times.”
