Testimonials
"Had an amazing coaching session with Meherun Hamid - yesterday. As leaders, sometimes we are so busy dealing with everyone else’s problems, that it was good to share my problem with someone else. Meherun listened and reassured me, but also redirected my focus back to the positives. Then my problem didn’t really seem like a problem! Feeling very positive again. I would highly recommend a session."
"Your approach in questioning created a safe and calm space to discuss challenges faced in the past. I was easily able to reflect back on situations that had an impact on my career and also where I want to be. I feel as though I am more aware now of the action steps required in order to get there."
"I would highly recommend Meherun. She is an outstanding coach. She asks the right questions to really explore issues that you haven’t thought of. Meherun guides you and supports you make important changes to better your life. She is a very experienced coach, she doesn’t dictate to you. The decisions are yours. She helps you define a clear path for your future and then puts together a plan with you, to achieve those goals."
