Hi,

I am very thrilled to facilitate the Embark Leadership Development Program. I am a founder (N-BAC LLC), speaker, and trainer who aspires to enable organizational growth and transformation through learning and leadership development. A continuous learner myself, I love to spark passion for learning and help people unlock their potential. 


My experience as a manager and as a corporate trainer has thought me that success as a leader/manager requires shift in mindset and new skills in self-leadership, leading and inspiring teams, and delivering results. I believe this course, specifically designed and curated for middle managers and leaders, can transform the way you lead yourself and others, and can set you up for success in your leadership journey and your career. 


It's a course I wish existed when I first transitioned into a leadership role :) and now I am very thrilled to present it to you.


I look forward to having you in this transformative experience!
