“I recently completed a Women in Communications & Technology career accelerator program, The Pinnacle Project. Over eight inspiring weeks, I connected with women in my "circle," sharing vulnerable experiences, reflecting on my leadership approach, and exploring growth opportunities. The guidance and insights from our facilitator Nabeela (Ixtabalan) Elsayed, MS, ACC, guest speakers, and panel thought leaders were incredibly encouraging. It was time well spent supporting aspiring women leaders."

I look forward to bringing these learnings back to Interac Corp.!

“Nabeela has provided me with invaluable insight, allowing me to identify and optimize my strengths while addressing areas for improvement. Her astute counsel and extensive business background have played a pivotal role in propelling my career forward. Her insight and support not only shaped my professional trajectory but also imparted to me a strategic approach to overcoming challenges. I wholeheartedly endorse her unmatched expertise and the influence of her mentorship."

“Nabeela’s coaching and support have been invaluable. Throughout our coaching sessions, she has effectively listened, questioned, and allowed me to discover solutions. She has a strong ability to remain unbiased while enabling me to determine the root cause, next steps, and resolutions. I am grateful for this partnership and highly recommend Nabeela to others!”

“I'm happy to recommend Nabeela for her outstanding facilitation of The Pinnacle Project, our inaugural career accelerator for women in senior leadership. With a candid and authentic style, Nabeela effectively leveraged her extensive leadership experience to mentor and guide participants. She skillfully moved the group towards actionable goals through targeted coaching while injecting pragmatic thought leadership into the curriculum to enhance learning. 

Nabeela's facilitation fostered a collaborative environment through peer coaching and insightful sense-making sessions, encouraging knowledge sharing and mutual support among participants.  

Perhaps most poignantly, Nabeela cultivated a safe and supportive space where growth and development flourished, significantly impacting the professional journeys of the women involved. Her dedication and expertise were instrumental in the program's success, demonstrating her exceptional ability to empower senior women leaders. 

Thank you, Nabeela, for your incredible leadership!"

“As a coach and mentor, Nabeela is among the upper echelon. Over several years, she transformed my perspective of what it means to be a leader and how to successfully set boundaries in a work setting. To extend further, her expertise helped form me into a better human. Her coaching is not in the abstract and out of reach, yet rather she brings a toolbox of ready-to-implement tools, strategies and tactics to transform your work, leadership and life. Perhaps the single most transformative life-shift.

Nabeela guided me through is “how will you radically prioritize to preserve and protect your mental health.” This was just one of dozens of tactics that Nabeela introduced, guided, supported and challenged me with. No matter the topic I brought to our sessions, she was armed with a reflection, homework, or tactic to propel me forward. Balancing both an empathetic and caring approach with a direct and challenging one was key to moving me through challenges; Nabeela is an expert at knowing who needs which, and when.

To say Nabeela changed many aspects of my total life is not an understatement. I enthusiastically, without reservation and with deep and life-long gratitude, recommend Nabeela as a coach and mentor.”
