Riyaz has been inspirational, helping me to find a way forward by looking within and exploring emotional intelligence.

Andy Gallimore FCIPD

I had the pleasure of working alongside Riyaz to develop, deliver and embed a leadership development programme. Riyaz is extremely engaging, energetic and knowledgeable. Riyaz quickly connects to people, understands things from there perspective, and develops an infectious learning environment that people want to be part of. His approach is memorable, fun, engaging and practical. I can highly recommend Riyaz for your development needs, he will interpret your requirements in a practical way and deliver.
