Vision & Values

I envision a world where people like me—who hold multiple identities—can lean into our hyphenated backgrounds to achieve a profound connection to our personal why as we navigate our careers.

My work is fueled by the core beliefs that:

  • Stories are a powerful tool to connect the human experience.

  • Leadership is a teachable and intentional skill that thrives on celebrating individual identities for a common goal.

  • Strong leaders bring out the best in people and organizations through storytelling to achieve a shared and mutually beneficial outcome.

Values

Values aren’t just words and ideas that sit in an employee handbook. Values are living, breathing guiding principles that help people and organizations make decisions. Our values at NIYAH Leadership help us decide who we work with, how we work with them, and why.

 
 

  • The namesake of our program, "NIYAH," means "intention" in Urdu. Rooted in intentionality, the NIYAH Toolkit guides leaders to be deliberate in their decisions, communication, and time management with the goal of aligning intention and impact.

  • NIYAH Leadership partners with people-first leaders who want to champion human connection through products and services that inspire and foster a culture of storytelling and empathy.

  • NIYAH Leadership is committed to working with leaders who prioritize honesty, transparency, and ethical decision-making to create positive business and social outcomes.

  • Niyah Leadership strives to ignite leaders who embrace discomfort with an insatiable curiosity, inspiring dynamics where tough conversations lead to transformative learning & growth.

  • NIYAH Leadership is committed to amplifying the aspirations of individuals with hyphenated identities. We believe that the unique points of view (POVs) of leaders with hyphenated identities are an unbeatable strength that empowers you to identify and solve big problems.
