For nearly 25 years, learning and development has been the main focus of Dr Shaheem’s career in a deep and deliberate manner, through the application of psychological and adult educational principles and practices. The intertwined nature of multiple roles throughout her career (such as a Learning & Development consultant, university professor, leadership roles in public and private organisations and entrepreneur) are inseparable and constantly leveraged to engage in purposeful work to make a positive impact.
So when Dr Shaheem works as a consultant or coach, her comprehensive and broad academic background colours and frames both the process and outcome of that engagement. Similarly, as a university professor, Dr Shaheem’s consulting projects breathe life and relevance into her learning sessions. As Dean and Executive Director of Graduate Programs of an international business school, Dr Shaheem merged and managed the kaleidoscope of her experiences in order to inspire, educate and transform countless lives by helping both staff and students progress towards their potential.
