Establishing your own company can be a little intimidating at times. 

Shifting to a new country is often challenging.

Isn't it?

Naheed dealt with all of it and is now a Transformational Learning and Development Consultant and a Co-Founder of Futurwits.

She started her journey way back in 2004 as a Sales Trainee Manager at Bajaj Life Insurances.

And eventually moved to SBI as a Training Manager, where she started applying NLP concepts even before being certified as an NLP practitioner.

Soon after, she and her husband shifted to Dubai and registered their company.

While re-establishing themselves in a new country, they faced many challenges.

In all the challenging times she focused upon 3 simple rules, which were:

  • Be conscious of the words that you use.
  • Think about the outcome and not the path.
  • Be present in your present moment.

She works on aligning your purpose with your job and limiting the barriers to accepting change.

With less than 3 years under her belt, her business has expanded to 16 countries, won 5 awards, and been a finalist at the Gulf Capital SME Awards. 

It was a combination of giving and networking offline and online across different platforms, such as Linkedin, Coffee Mug, and Lunch Club, that allowed her to expand so much.

In this episode of Empowering Indian Expats, you will learn about

  • Aligning with the purpose
  • Adding value to your vision
  • Networking
  • Focusing on the goal, not the path
  • Finding your vision
  • Importance of getting a coach
  • Some concepts of NLP
