Meet Hisham Elsaied
Hisham has spent most of his career in environments where leadership is not a concept.
He has held senior HR roles in large, complex organisations, including Fortune 500 environments, where decisions move quickly into practice.
He is a CIPD Trainer and Facilitator as well as a certified ACC ICF Coach. He was the first CIPD Mentor in the region, and a contributor to HBR Arabia, writing on leadership in the context of AI and human-centred transformation.
That combination of formal grounding and lived experience shapes how he works.
His focus stays close to how leaders operate in complex environments, particularly when they move from operational control to broader, less defined responsibility.
This is just one thing that makes him a relatable coach.
