Rasheed invites you to be curious and examine your own mental schema and experiences, while flexing into the ability to see and acknowledge the perspective and lived experience of others you lead; the way you develop and engage with professional relationships; and to imagine a way of building and improving communication, trust, and connection though compassion.

As leaders and managers, you may tend think that time is probably your most important resource, but Rasheed gets you to think outside of the leadership box – it is you and it is your people. He helps you creatively develop ways to mindfully make space for, and sustain your energies, physical, mental, emotional, grounding and resourcing yourself as a Soul Leader while helping your team feel visible, valued, motivated, and inspired to achieve.

There is so much value in this course. You pace yourself along 8 steps, each stage offering a unique lens through which to see and experience your leadership. In each chapter Rasheed offers you coaching tools to enact the learning from the course, building on this learning through summaries, actions, learnings, and reflections. The fact that you can go back to each module as a standalone resource when you feel you need to, as well as use the techniques and tools he shares with you coaching yourself and your team, is incredibly empowering.

Rasheed has managed to develop a very holistic, practical, and transformational leadership course which touches not just on the key operational aspects of managing people, of being a catalyst for change and managing change, or even of utilising situational leadership styles – it goes much deeper than that. Rasheed invites you to move past strategy, past the ability to zoom in and zoom out, to a heart-centred place where you can be incredibly present as a leader with a deep and authentic understanding of the people you lead, their team dynamics, personalities, their developmental needs, other stakeholders and what is happening in and impacting the environment you professionally operate in.

The emotional intelligence aspect of leadership is often something just paid lip service to in many leadership development courses because it is often seen as “messy” but – wherever there are people, there are emotions, and the Soul Leader is able to connect with that complexity confidently with authenticity and inspire. If you are a leader or potential leader who wants to add another dimension to your leadership, embarking on this course with Rasheed as your coach can transform how you lead.

Throughout the course Rasheed invites you, as your coach, back to the silent centre where you can drop into yourself, resource yourself and emerge stronger, more knowledgeable with more agency and efficacy as a leader. You can’t lead others until you can lead yourself, and through this Soul Leader course, Rasheed holds the space for you, so you are able to do that, and more.”

I’ve been so privileged to have Rasheed as my coach whilst leading a high performing team in a major publishing house.

Now that I am pursuing an exciting new venture, the online course has allowed me to revisit a vast array of invaluable tools, tips and techniques to further hone my skills as a heart-centered leader and entrepreneur.

This course is incredibly easy to follow and digest at your own pace with a wealth of additional resources and helpful exercises to support your journey.

I can’t recommend it enough for anyone wishing to take a more meaningful and purpose-led approach to life and work.”
