Just joined the Wirtschaftsjunioren – Young Leaders UAE Kick-Off Event tonight at SLS Dubai.

Dubai is full of ambitious minds, but it’s rare to find a space where business leaders, entrepreneurs and young professionals come together not to talk titles but to talk growth, collaboration and real impact.

That’s exactly what this community stands for.

Grateful to be part of a network that believes in building the future of leadership not individually, but collectively.

P.S: If we met yesterday, drop me a message and I’d love to stay connected beyond the room

Hard work is not a career strategy.
It’s a personality trait.
And confusing the two is why so many high-achievers burn out before they break through.

A strategy is a plan to get from A to B.

“Working hard” is not a plan. 

It’s just pedaling faster on a stationary bike.

You feel the burn, but you’re not going anywhere.

Strategy is what turns effort into recognition. 
Strategy is what turns your technical expertise into executive presence. Strategy is what turns your silent execution into visible value.

Here’s the brutal truth:
No one is going to give you a medal for your exhaustion.

Your overflowing inbox and back-to-back meetings are not a proxy for your value.

They are a sign of a broken system.
Your system.

Stop wearing burnout as a badge of honor.
Start treating your career with the same strategic intent you give your most important projects.

What if the one thing holding you back isn’t your ability, but your addiction to being busy?

How to Speak Up in Meetings Without Hesitation: 

1.     Stop self-censorship

Don’t miss the opportunity to share your views by over thinking, jump in there and share your thoughts and ideas. You see that you‘ll soon automatically speak up more often. 

2.     Don’t forget to prepare

Review the agenda before, collect your thoughts in advance, think about the possible questions you will be asked.

3.     Ask Questions (But Clever Questions!)

Be an active participant by simply asking questions. “Where is that coming from?”
Don’t be afraid to leverage your knowledge.

4.     Use the Language of Declaration

Instead of opening up with “I think”, instead say “Here’s what I know…” or “My experience tells me…”

5.     Say the first thing that comes to mind. (Sometimes!)

Along with preparing to discuss a specific topic, commit to expressing one thought that comes to mind during the meeting. Do this at least once per meeting so that speaking without censorship becomes a habit.

Use these points in every meeting and observe the impact you create.

Summary 

1.No Self-Censorship
2.Be prepared
3.Leverage the Power of Questions
4.Use the Language of Declaration
5.Practise saying the first thing that comes to mind at least one time.

Hello, confidence.

Goodbye, hesitation.

I thought visibility meant louder.
Turns out, it meant smarter.
Here are the lessons that changed everything.

When I wanted that Marketing Leadership role: 
↳ I didn't just work harder and hope for the best 
↳ I mapped out the key stakeholders who mattered 
↳ I started communicating my strategic thinking, not just my results

When I left my corporate career to start coaching: 
↳ I didn't try to help "everyone with everything" 
↳ I focused on the specific problem I knew best: invisible expertise 
↳ And built my entire methodology around that one challenge

When I started building my presence on LinkedIn: 
↳ I didn't chase viral content or generic motivation 
↳ I shared real insights from my coaching sessions 
↳ And ignored the "post daily at all costs" advice


When I developed my coaching programs: 
↳ I didn't copy what other coaches were doing 
↳ I spent months understanding my clients' real struggles 
↳ And created frameworks that solved their actual problems

It's tempting to spray and pray rather than focus. 

It's easier to choose visibility over strategy.

But when you choose strategic precision 
Because you're willing to do the deep work, You create real impact.

And while that may feel slower, It's actually far more effective, long term.

Focused is fast. 
So go use strategic thinking. 

It's harder. It'll feel deliberate. 
But it gets the recognition you've been working for.

If you had to pick one thing to focus on right now for visibility and what would it be?

#executivecoaching #visibility  #becomeuphuman

P.S. Trust me, I've messed up plenty along the way. But when it mattered most, I finally got strategic about my visibility. Ready to do the same?
Check the comments below for more.

“Hard work pays off.”
It’s a half-truth. 
And half-truths are more dangerous than lies.

Hard work pays off… but only if people see the impact.

Otherwise, it’s just burnout with a different name.

For years, you’ve been running on an outdated operating system:
Effort → Results → ??? → Reward

That question mark is where careers go to die.

Here’s the new operating system. It’s not about working more; it’s about being strategic with your impact.

There are only 3 levers that matter:

1. Strategic Priorities: Are you working on the things that the business actually values, or are you just busy?

2. Strategic Visibility: Do the people who make decisions know what you’re working on and the impact it’s having?

3. Strategic Advocacy: Is there someone in a position of power who is telling your story when you’re not in the room?

Stop measuring your worth by the hours you put in.
Start measuring it by the strategic impact you create.

Which of these three levers have you been neglecting the most?

People-pleasing is not a soft skill.
It’s a form of self-sabotage disguised as helpfulness.

In the corporate world, it’s an epidemic.
And it’s killing the careers of the most talented people.

Because the person who always says “yes”...
↳ Is the person whose own priorities are always last. 
↳ Is the person who gets saddled with non-promotable work. 
↳ Is the person who is seen as a reliable “doer,” not a strategic “leader.”

Saying “no” is a strategic skill.

Protecting your time is a leadership move.

Having boundaries is a sign of self-respect that signals to others how you expect to be treated.

When you say “no” to the wrong things, you create the space to say “yes” to the right things.

• The strategic project that will get you noticed.
• The networking opportunity that will open new doors.
• The deep work that will actually move the needle.

Your goal is not to be liked. Your goal is to be respected.
And respect is a consequence of valuing your own time and expertise.

Stop trying to please everyone. 
Start serving your own ambition.

What’s one “yes” you regret from this past month?

#LeadershipMindset #Productivity #CareerGrowth #Boundaries

You're answering their questions perfectly, and you're still not getting the job.
It's because you're being likable, not memorable.
You're delivering facts, not chemistry.

After coaching hundreds of leaders for high-stakes roles, I see the same mistake repeatedly.

High-achievers think the interview is a test of their memory.
So they give perfect, factual, and utterly forgettable answers.

"I managed a team and we hit our targets."

That's not a story. 
It's a status update.

And it makes you invisible.

Winning the role isn't about having the right answers. 
It's about creating a connection that makes you the only choice.

Here's how you shift from being a candidate to being a strategic partner in the room:

1. Stop asking subordinate questions. Start asking strategic ones.
↳ Instead of: "What is the culture like?"
↳ Ask: "What are the biggest opportunities you see for this role in the next 12 months?"

One makes you a job seeker. The other makes you a leader.

2. Stop recalling facts. Start telling stories.
People don't remember data. They remember stories.

Your "greatest hits"...
Those 4-5 powerful stories of challenge, leadership, and results...
They are your most valuable currency.

They are data with a soul.

Your resume gets you in the room.
Your stories are what make them remember you when you leave.

So, let me ask you this:

Is your interview strategy designed to be forgotten, or designed to be remembered?

P.S. Watch the full breakdown in the video above. 
I show you exactly how to craft stories that make you unforgettable. 👆

Skip the 10-year wait. Start designing like a senior now.

Here’s exactly how to level up your work fast. 👇

Most designers think they need years of experience to look senior.
But the truth is simple: your thinking makes you senior,  not your title.

Here are the 8 habits that make your design feel junior 

(and how to fix them):

1️⃣ Your content isn’t clear
Stop using fancy words.
Make your message simple.
Guide the user clearly to the next step.

2️⃣ You design first, think later
Plan the message before you open Figma.
Good design starts with clarity, not layouts.

3️⃣ You don’t write with empathy
Design for your users, not for yourself.
Answer their questions before they ask.

4️⃣ Your designs don’t drive action
Vague buttons = confused users.
Clear actions = smooth flow.

5️⃣ You add more instead of removing noise
Senior designers simplify.
Remove clutter, remove friction, remove confusion.

6️⃣ Your microcopy isn’t helping
Error messages, tooltips, labels, they must guide.
Cool words don’t convert. Clear words do.

7️⃣ Your design isn’t easy to scan
No hierarchy = lost users.
Make the path obvious.

8️⃣ You’re not consistent across screens
Inconsistent labels increase cognitive load.
Match patterns, reduce friction, build trust.
Save this so you don’t forget these senior-level habits.

P.S. Share this with a designer who wants to level up.

AI is eliminating the bad ones, but the real question is,

Which category are you in?

Let’s get real for a second.

People have been saying
“AI will replace designers”
for three years.

It hasn’t happened, and it won’t.

What is happening is a brutal market divide.

Designers who only do pixels?
Those roles are disappearing.

Designers who think strategically?
Their value just doubled.

Here is the actual shift:

Before AI
60 percent execution
40 percent thinking

After AI
10 percent execution
90 percent thinking

There is no mediocre designer economy anymore.
You are either strategic or obsolete.

The three types of designers emerging:

1️⃣ Execution Designers
“I build pixel-perfect designs.”
AI does it better, faster, cheaper
Salary trend: ↓

2️⃣ Tool Users
“I use AI to speed up my work.”
Good, but not enough
Salary trend: →

3️⃣ Strategic Thinkers
“I define what should be built, AI helps me execute.”
AI enables them, it does not replace them
Salary trend: ↑↑↑

What to do starting today:

→ Identify three boring tasks you do every day.
→ Give them to AI.
→ Use that freed time for strategy.
→ Ask better questions.
→ Measure the impact.

In ninety days, you will be worth twice what you were.

P.S. Which category are you in?
Execution | Tool User | Strategic Thinker 👇

Redesigns don’t fail because of design.
They fail because teams redesign the wrong thing, here's why 👇

Most designers just change the colors.
Move a few buttons.
Add nicer visuals.

But that’s not what your redesign required!

So your design is; 
→ Not clearer.
→ Not faster.
→ Not better for users.

Real redesigns do one thing:
They fix the experience.

Because users don’t drop off.
They leave when things feel hard.

Real UX teams:
✓ Don’t decorate. They simplify.
✓ Don’t guess. They remove friction.
✓ Don’t add features. They give control.

If your product feels messy or confusing, 
this one’s for you.

4 website redesign tips

Most designers want higher pay and better roles…
But they are stuck doing the same things all day!!

Let’s be real,

Changing buttons.
Fixing spacing.
Cleaning screens.
Tweaking text.

These tasks make your design “look good,”
But they don’t make you grow.

If you want a senior role, 
You need to start thinking like 
“a senior product designer”
not a “UI fixer.”

Here’s the simple truth:

Short-term work helps today.
Systems help tomorrow.
Future thinking shapes the whole product.

Senior designers don’t just design, 

→ They plan ahead.
→ They solve bigger problems.
→ They think beyond the screen.

And this is the mindset that gets you:

✔ better jobs
✔ higher salary
✔ bigger ownership
✔ real career growth

Grow your thinking → grow your value → grow your income.

REPOST and start practicing senior thinking today! 

P.S. DON’T FORGET TO SEE THE 📌 PIN COMMENTS DOWN BELOW. 
You’ll need it soon.

Stop expecting high checks 

I don’t fire weak designers.

But for the habits they refuse to change….

TBH, talent alone isn’t the problem
Habits are!

In the beginner years
I used to think these were what designers needed:

→ more tools,
→ more hours,
→ more courses…

I WAS WRONG.

It isn’t about capabilities
Rather, it’s a habit they repeat even when they know it!

Here are the habits that push the designers towards the exit!

1️⃣ Taking too long on unnecessary polishing
If you’re tweaking things no one asked for…
You’re not improving the work.
You’re wasting time and hurting your reputation.

2️⃣ “Design-only” thinking
If you can’t link your work to adoption or revenue…
You’re not designing for the business.
You’re just making screens.

3️⃣ Tool obsession
Ten tools won’t make you better.
One clear strategy will.
The best designers know this.

The top performers I’ve hired?
They focus on the problem.

Not the polish.
Not the tools.
Not the noise.

They broke these habits 
and that’s what made them indispensable.

Because growth doesn’t come from working harder.
It comes from breaking the habits that hold you back.

What’s one habit you had to break to accelerate your career?
P.S. Let’s have a chat in the pin comments!

Most designers will never become senior.

But the question is… are you among them?

If you want to step into a senior UX role,
you need more than talent.

You need skills most people skip.
Skills that actually move you forward.

So I put together a simple guide.
A friendly walkthrough of what really matters.

Inside the post, you will see:

→ Strategic thinking.
→ Product sense.
→ Deep user understanding.
→ Leadership.
→ Systems thinking.

And a bonus, you don’t wanna miss

Each one explained in a way you can apply today.

“Am I ready for that senior title?”

5 Skills to be a Sr. UX designer

You’ve been taught the UX process wrong.
There. I’ve said it.

The truth?

You can follow the
 R → D → I → D → T
 framework perfectly…

…and still end up building something
users don’t actually want.

Why?

Because the UX process only works
When you understand the purpose
behind each step.

Not just the steps themselves.
Most beginners memorize the sequence.
But they never learn the meaning.

They follow the method.
But ignore the mindset.

And that’s exactly where
good ideas go to die.

In this guide, I’m breaking down
the 5 essential stages 

and the rookie mistakes
that quietly sabotage
good design at every level.

If you’re learning UX

This is the version
you should be using.

5 Simple Steps to Turn Your Design into Code
(You won’t believe it’s that easy) 👇🏼

I believe you have seen most design-to-code tools
Those look powerful at first, but…
These secretly destroy a coder’s focus

Too many pop-ups.
Too many things are shouting for attention.

Among this chaos
The flow somehow gets lost...

So we designed that experience from zero
Here is how we built a faster design-to-code flow. 👇

1️⃣Start with focus

We didn’t start with features, but, 
We asked one question. 
“What makes a coder lose focus?”

The answer was simple
visual noise and mental overload.
So we removed the extras
Yes, we focused on the main ux problem

2️⃣ Build visual rhythm

Our focus is on how coders can scan text easily. 
Kept the dark mode, balanced spacing, and
Easy-to-read fonts

This way, the design looks steady 
And coders can focus without getting distracted

3️⃣ Add motion that teaches

We believe every animation has a purpose

So we kept the animation gentle and smooth
As a result, it won’t distract

Small cues, smooth transitions 
It feels alive without the busyness

4️⃣ Make collaboration feel natural

Coders rarely work alone.
So we built shared spaces that feel simple and calm.

Real-time edits. Quiet updates.
No chaos, no stress.

5️⃣Test with real creators

We watched developers use it in real time.
When they paused, we asked why.

When something felt easy, we kept it.
When something broke the flow, it was removed.

If you’re designing for complex tools, 
Remember: Flow is the real feature.

P.S. What’s one thing you’d change about today’s design-to-code tools?

How to build dashboards, users understand in 6 steps

(save this for your next project)

Most people think great dashboards are about more data!
Let me correct that: 

They’re not.

A good dashboard is about less confusion
Doesn't matter what the platform is

We built Electra, an EV charging dashboard.

Our goal was simple:
Turn complex EV data into solid information
So users can make fast decisions 

We planned to save time and make it simple

Here’s the 6-step approach we followed 👇

1️⃣ Start with real user behavior, 

Let’s make things easier
We mapped every action EV owners take daily

2️⃣ Make the battery and range the hero.

Show what matters first.
Range. Time. Battery.
One glance should answer everything.

3️⃣ Simplify discovery.

Nearby charging stations show to 
Help you decide now! 

4️⃣ Test clarity, not just usability.

We didn’t ask, “Can users use it?”
We asked, “Can users breathe while using it?”

5️⃣ Use visual hierarchy with purpose

Highlight priority.
Soften the rest.
Typography, color, and spacing guide the eyes.

6️⃣ Reveal depth only when needed

Show essentials first.
Details come later.
Right info, right moment.


A great EV dashboard doesn’t show everything.
It shows what matters most, when it matters most.

P.S. Got a dashboard you’re designing right now?
