The CEO Program was nothing like any program on leadership I have attended before. It is unique and has kept me completely rooted. It is so empowering. Sameer and Sheeja balance this so perfectly. Your voices ring in my ears ever so often that it will keep me on track to making the big successful changes in my life. Want to thank Sameer for offering me the opportunity to make changes through practices. Looking forward to this journey of 11 months and beyond with you two.
Feeling very lucky to be part of this fantastic program. It was good on so many points. I really enjoyed it and it was so much more than I expected. I learnt so much. The content was informative and interactive which gave me practice, and examples of what it can do were most important. Am wonderfully inspired again! I also wanted to compliment you Sameer, on your training skills. You never seem to run out of enthusiasm and energy! I have and will talk about this program to everybody.
The CEO program is designed for 11 months, however the pragmatic learning would certainly be lifelong.I am thrilled to have experienced thefirst 3 days of the CEO Program and am already seeing the world with lot of possibilities, to get results for myself and my organization. The CEO Program is ‘An Art to Lead Life’, that empowers you in every situation, and develops you to gain your desired results. I am thankful to life, that I’ve got Coach Sir Sameer, Sheeja Shaju and my learning team, so I that practice each and every element of the 3 days Conference in my life and build my leadership muscles stronger &stronger!
Sameer’s passion of teaching this subject and the way he motivates people in such training sessions, is just amazing. The way the last session on the third daywas conducted, including a group dance and activity at the end, was really mind-blowing and everybody was completely charged-up. I have never experienced that in my life!
Really happy to be a part of the C.E.O (Coaching for Excellence in Organisations) programme – Batch of October 2017. It is incidentally the first of an 11- month Leadership programme–. The programme got off to a flying start with what has been (for me) one of the most immersive 3-day affairs. The whole ambiance was electrifying (yeah there was dance too) along with some serious food for thought provided by the IGL team – Sameer, Sheeja, Geeta and a couple of others. The take away was the set of declarations made by each one of the participants in their area of care on day 3 which will be tracked and mapped against the milestone(s) reached as the programme rolls on…Sameer went to the extent of saying that he and his team is unequivocally invested in each one’s declaration and can be held to account! Now that is some Leadership initiative…
I was in a kind of comfort zone & confused about how to take my business to the next level, I am glad to have taken right decision in joining The CEO Program, it has helped in getting clarity on my priorities and potential to make it big, just 2 weeks into the course and I see myself as a man with unlimited vision, thank you Sameer and Sheeja for giving me this opportunity.”
Sameer is every individual’s inner voice. He very effectively wakes us from our sleep and pulls us out from the dark room we’ve been living in, in our heads. Definitely Sameer is gifted with his ability as a great speaker. Looking forward to broaden my perspectives with him and do full justice with my participation in the 11 month CEO program
I must say Sameer, you have a great way of motivating people and kept the group on our toes all through the three days. Most participants, including me hung on to every word you were saying. You are inspirational and I enjoyed every moment of the Program. I look forward to working with you and my team for the next 11 months. I do believe this Program will help me clear the cobwebs in my head and help me regain my confidence. Sheeja added a wonderful dimension to the Program.
It’s a super programme and I am honoured to be a part of it. Great learning, rich networking and absolutely stunning reflections. I have attended many leadership development programmes but this one beats anything that I have experienced. All this and we’ve just begun.
“We as a management team are currently going through a major change where we need to revise our current strategy in order to maintain our success in the future. Therefore we have done an incredible workshop with Sameer, which opened up the eyes and mindset of everyone of us in a really different and very powerful way. I am absolutely convinced that this workshop will support all organisations and individuals going through important changes to achieve the desired targets.”
“Having worked in the field of education for nearly 30 years and had the opportunity to work with a vast and diverse collection of leaders from the arenas of education and business/industry, I am very excited about the Leadership Coaching program Sameer Dua has developed for current and future leaders. His focus on the need for authenticity and his recognition of the importance of language and context elevate this training program above the others with which I am familiar.
“Congratulations to Sameer Dua – this program is a winner!”
During the course of my work of over 22+ years at various large organizations like Wipro, Microsoft & IBM, I have been a part of many training programs on leadership. However, “The Being of a Leader” program of Sameer Dua Training, intrinsically a Leadership Coaching program, is very different from the other Leadership programs.
This program works on “self transformation” that when applied to your professional or personal life dictates miraculous results.
I can state that the participants of this program can be guaranteed of a change that instills self belief, which is so critical to one’s performance resulting in exceptional success at work or in personal life.
“The Being of a Leader” program nicely combines input with practice and it does something that other programs do not do: it ensures continuity and learning throughout a period of time which allows participants to make self-reflection an inherent part of their individual growth. This concept paired with Sameer’s experience in Leadership Development and the wonderful person I got to know him as, will have a strong impact and will give a new perspective to leaders in making sustainable differences.”
“Sameer Dua has made a profound and a lasting difference in the way I live my life. His coaching continues to provoke me to question my own perceptions; my existing decision making patterns and redefine the way I respond to my circumstances.
The expanded results that I have created through this coaching program have greatly elevated the quality of my life”
In my experience of 24 years in Finance Industry, across the Globe, I have been observing the need for a programme which not only develops leadership at work-place but also creates better individuals at home. In these times of cut-throat competition it is important to take up challenges at work-place, motivate the staff, meet dead-lines etc. All this invariably causes stress, leading at times to down-fall in inter-personal relations at work-place and homes. My search ended with the Generative Leadership Programme by Sameer Dua. I can assertively say that, this Programme brought in dynamic change in the outlook, performance and vision of my Senior Management. They are today, substantially enriched with skill sets to fix and achieve goals and motivate their staff. They have a deeper understanding of inter-personal communications which has promoted their professional and personal relations creating stress-free atmosphere at home and work-place. Their entire perception towards challenges has changed towards positivity, redefining their approach towards problem-solving. Sameer Dua has not only created superior professionals but far better human beings too! I would definitely endorse this programme to small as well as large organisations alike who intend to enrich their personnel with better understanding of Life.
“When we evaluated Leadership needs for the current times and the years to come a few unusual competencies stood out. Acting courageously as Leaders was one of them. As I began work on this subject it dint take me long to realize there is no one in India who can deliver this subject at the depth I’d hoped to find. As the India SSA head for Leadership Development at John Deere my hunt for the elusive faculty began fervently but in dismay as well. While there was no dearth of contacts spread across continents, most calls ended with the exasperation of having to explain the fulcrum of courage, the design of the mind and the voice that speaks but suppliers and vendors couldn’t fathom the concepts nor the direction. Sameer Dua was a reference met outside of calendar and what was to be a 20mts meeting turned into 1.5 hours of debate and brain stimulating discussion. He was already where we hoped to go. His concepts and ideas from Generative Leadership were driving us right home. I knew then we had finally found our external lead for this esteemed program. The content work spread across two months which were the most intellectually stimulating experience I had so far and the end result was a splendid 3 days intervention that had all participants Thinking, Introspecting, Recognizing and Checking their behaviors. The program has been the best seller of 2014 for us. Sameer hit the group of leaders right between the eyebrows and woke up each individual to commence a long journey where he would not lead us anymore, but allow our newly accepted realities and corrections to bring change in our personal and professional worlds. Sameer is rare talent- glad we found him.”
It was a pleasure to attend your session. We learned a lot and also understood realities of life when it comes to work and this will be a learning for life. The teams truly enjoyed the powerful session delivered by you. We are looking forward to work with you.
The program content and delivery is powerful and has the potential to make a change in one’s life.
It was a great pleasure to meet you and I also feel proud that I could attend this session. The presentations as well as training materials were well defined and your coaching was too good. I shall definitely recommend more people to attend this in future.
I wanted to say ‘Thank You’ to you for delivering a impactful session and today I went through the complete slide deck you had shared for the team. This was a good reiteration and I will keep on referring it at regular intervals till this is in my blood. Thanks again.
It was wonderful attending the lecture given by Sameer Dua yet another time…… Such a powerful motivator ……. Bravo ! Sameer Dua is very impressive and approachable …..an honour to be a part of the listening audience which ,for me ,translates into a Thinking Deepashry.
“This is not just a leadership training program, but a life changing one.”
“This program is a must for everyone. Especially those who are just starting their careers, business persons who want to grow and go from one phase to another and everybody else who has a fire in the belly to excel in life.”
“Be coachable to see the difference this course can make to the way you think. Identify the patterns you are living in to break them and start a new beginning. You will be coached by someone who is extremely sincere in his efforts to create a powerful world for you. This course aims at holistic growth (both professional and personal), and must be experienced.”
“The Leadership dimensions being addressed in this program are different and the sessions are thought provoking. The input sizes are small but profound. The theory is backed by enough time for practice and experiential learning. Good process of support being followed through group calls. Do not miss the opportunity of doing this program”
“The earlier this program is done, the better will be the person and the personality”
“The Leadership Practices are very well designed and I am able to correlate the exercise given with my daily work life and personal life. I feel the leadership practices is like a running diary – because we are living it every second of our lives!!! I am happy with the design, structure and follow up of this program. I now know the difference between learning through a training program and “coaching”. I feel there is so much to do and so little time to do it in – I have wasted a good number of years already!!!”
In a business world where we are always caught up with our regular challenges, often times we forget to take a step back and reflect on the big picture. Without the zoom out, each of us misses out on the broader aspect of why we do what we do. It is this missing piece that makes us behave in a routine fashion which we attribute to the system in which each one of us function. Sameer Dua conducted a wonderful program for our organization with the entire management team. He triggered the thought of creating a more powerful world when we look at life from a distance. He implored the team to deliver more powerful results by changing the way we look at ourselves, in other words our capabilities are much beyond than what we believe they are. Sameer created a sense of purpose in the entire team by forcing us to think deeply in finding the compelling reason behind our drive. His energetic session created a profound feeling of finding oneself, thus creating a powerful world around her / him. I can’t thank Sameer Dua enough for the wonderful session.
“Please attend the program to live an empowered life. You will start feeling good about yourself the way you are rather than being concerned over other’s opinions about you. Life is to be lived on your terms.”
“This program has helped me restructure my business and in setting priorities in my life. As a parent also, I would encourage participants to take up this program at an early age.”
