I Built This Practice to Break a Pattern.
Most workplace training in the GCC follows the same script: fly in a facilitator, run a half-day workshop, collect the feedback forms, file them away. I built my practice to break that pattern.
I'm Mohammed Younus — a Dubai-based corporate trainer, ICF-accredited executive coach, and Certified Happiness Trainer under Dr. Tal Ben-Shahar. For 18+ years I've been designing and delivering programmes that actually shift behaviour — across UAE, KSA, Qatar, and India.
I specialise in the challenges that define modern GCC workplaces: multicultural teams spanning 40+ nationalities, leadership gaps in fast-scaling organisations, and the quiet cost of disengagement and burnout. My programmes don't just improve feedback scores — they produce measurable changes in team behaviour, retention, and culture.
I work in-person, deliver personally, and stay accountable to outcomes — not just to the invoice.
What I Stand for
Altruism
Giving without keeping score. Every programs is built around what your people actually need.
Compassion
People first, always. Behind every KPI is a person who deserves to enjoy their work.
Joy
Happiness is a professional discipline. I bring it to every room I walk into.
From Bangalore to Dubai — 18 Years Later
Started in HR, discovered training was the calling, built a practice, relocated to Dubai to serve the GCC market directly.
18 Years. One Obsession
Content: HR Directors, L&D Managers, and CHROs in mid-to-large GCC organisations — teams of 15 to 500+ across UAE, KSA, Qatar, and India. The common thread is always the same: a people challenge that a generic off-the-shelf programme hasn’t solved.
Content: Yes. When you brief me, I show up — not a junior associate, not a subcontracted trainer. This is the single most common complaint I hear from organisations who’ve used large training companies: the proposal was sold by a senior person and delivered by someone they’d never met. That doesn’t happen here.
Content: Pre- and post-assessments on knowledge and behaviour. Manager feedback at 30 and 60 days post-programme. Cohort check-ins for multi-month journeys. I build measurement into the programme design from day one — not as an afterthought.
Content: A 20-minute discovery call — no pitch, no deck, just a conversation. You tell me what your team is dealing with, I tell you honestly whether I can help. If there’s a fit, I’ll send a proposal within 48 hours. Book directly via the Calendly link in the navigation.

Who I Do My Best Work With
You work in HR or L&D in a GCC organisation. You've run training before and it didn't move the needle. You're dealing with a disengaged team, a leadership gap, or a culture that needs work — and you need someone who actually understands this region.
