Amina Mezghenni Ellouze<\/h5>

\"I support leaders in their thinking, developing, and push them towards achieving their goals.\"
\nFirst, as an executive coach, I have supported leaders and management teams for ten years, helping them to develop their emotional intelligence and resilience, fill their roles with success, and transcend the complexities of their contexts. My clients are leaders and managers at all levels whose goal is to contribute the success of their organizations, and they are also organizations that want to improve their performance and results by holding their teams together through collective intelligence and developing employee personal brands.
\nSecond: As a teacher at the University of Tunis-Dauphin, I offer courses in public discourse, leadership and communication for master\u2019s students and also participate in the creation of an innovative training program called \u201cTrajectoire\" that accompanies students throughout their studies through training workshops to know themselves better and find a better way to communicate with others and the whole world. In addition to the above, I also accompany a politician to train him to clarify his vision, project, campaign axes, or communication axes in general. My role is to ask inspiring questions, which in turn push politics towards the awareness that is necessary to its developing.
\nFinally my credo is to know how to be together to know how to work together.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/section>
