“The workshop attendees found that the program provided a clear understanding of high-performing team, best practices and practical strategies that they can implement at the workplace. The interactive nature of the program engaged attendees to be involved in their own learning experience through various activities from self-reflections to team dynamics.

Through the interaction, attendees were able to internalize the characteristics of the High-Performing Team elaborated in the excellent SCORE™ Framework, enhance critical thinking and disengage what has hitherto been obstacles to be a high performing team.

Thank you again for such a thoughtful and excellent learning experience!”

“I have been formally trained in some of the best institutions in the United States to include US military flight school, whereupon completion I flew over 50 combat missions over Iraq and Afghanistan as a Helicopter Aircraft Commander. Needless to say, I have a high standard in regards to training and Professor Bawany masterfully weaves “VUCA” principles into his deep insight of leadership qualities creating training that far exceeds expectations and is immensely valuable to all leaders who inevitably will be faced with decisions of disruption no matter the industry.

The level and nature of Professor Bawany’s training are exceptional as he continually utilizes concrete exercises, practical examples and provides excellent analysis. His work is some of the most professional training I have ever encountered and as the Executive Director of AIT Extension, I look forward to future engagement and training opportunities from/with Professor Bawany and his Disruptive Leadership Institute.”

Professor Bawany is a warm and entertaining speaker and writer and I would highly recommend this work His presentation gave insight on the timely topic of disruptive leadership.

“I would like to extend our sincere appreciation for your sharing. It is highly relevant, thought-provoking and was well-received by our members, many of whom are professionals and business leaders. The Q&A session was dynamic and intense. I am certain that our members have benefited tremendously from this sharing.

The primary takeaway from the session is how to prepare for a prolonged adjustment to the current COVID-19 pandemic and how leaders can be prepared to make the necessary shift in the manner they are leading and engaging the team in the “new normal” of the post-pandemic workplace. The case studies and examples used during the session were also useful.”

“We would like to express our most sincere appreciation for you taking some of your valuable time in providing the webinar for our Banking and Financial Services Union members.

Your ‘Influence with Authority’ session had benefitted our members immensely. Fresh graduates who have just entered the workforce had provided positive feedback, and even the
more experienced staff had gleaned something valuable from your session. The lessons learned will come in useful during the day-to-day function within their companies!

On behalf of the team, I wish you all the best for your future undertaking and thank you once again for the enriching session for our members.”

“The introduction of multiple critical thinking process tools during the executive leadership program allows our leaders to look at problems comprehensively and make well-thought-out recommended action plans and effective decisions. The participants can use the processes they learned to apply to ongoing business challenges they face in leading their respective teams toward achieving our organisation’s mission, vision, strategic intent, goals, and KPIs. We would highly recommend DLI for organizations that are eager to develop their next generation (nextgen) of leaders in enabling them to be successful in an increasingly fast-paced, hypercompetitive, and VUCA-D (Volatility, Uncertainty, Complexity, and Ambiguity and Digitally-Disruptive) business environment that we are experiencing today!”
