Leaders and teams
Confidential one-to-one coaching and work with a management team: one result, clear metrics, personal commitments.
Discuss coachingCorporate & leadership coaching
From agreed strategy to leadership behaviour.
I help leaders and teams turn decisions into commitments, and commitments into consistent execution. Confidential, practical, in English, Russian and Uzbek.

Where results are lost
The model can be flawless. People still carry out the execution.
Structure, roles and KPIs set the direction, but they do not create accountability or execution discipline. Between a decision and a result sits behaviour: what a leader does on Monday morning, how a team keeps its agreements, what happens when things get hard. That is where I work.
Three stages
- 01
Strategy
Decisions are made; structure, roles and KPIs are agreed, often together with a consulting partner.
- 02
Behaviour
Decisions become personal commitments and practices of specific people. This is my territory.
- 03
Execution
Regular review, honest assessment of results, and escalation of systemic barriers to those who can remove them.
From intent to implementation.
What makes me different
I have seen consulting from the other side of the table.
For many years I worked in large organisations that hired consulting and training companies for leadership programmes, workshops and change. I saw first-hand what remains when the consultant leaves: usually a good report and the same habits. So I do what is most often left out: I carry a decision through to the behaviour of specific people, and I check it with numbers.
The consultant decides what to change. I help people actually do it.
| How it usually goes | How I work |
|---|---|
| The training ends, the habits stay | Seven weeks on a real task of your team, not on classroom cases |
| Success means “it was useful” feedback | Two working metrics agreed before we start |
| Promises of higher engagement | I do not promise it. I check what can be checked: were commitments kept |
| Consultant and coach roles are blurred | Roles are separated in writing: diagnostics stay with the consultant, behaviour is mine |
| A report with names and judgements about people | A report without names. Nothing goes into appraisals, bonuses or dismissals |
- The client’s viewI worked in corporations and international organisations (UNICEF, Quintiles) that hired consultants and trainers
- Professional trainingICF-accredited Level 2 programme, 125 hours (FLOW Coaching Institute), plus 96 hours at Client-Centred Coaching School
- Intensive-care physician12 years of clinical practice: I know how people decide under pressure
I am ready to say “you do not need this”. If no behavioural gap remains after the consultants’ work, the pilot is not needed, and I will say so plainly.

How I can help
Consulting & HR partners
A behavioural implementation module after your diagnostics. Diagnostics, strategy and the client stay with you; I lead behaviour and follow-through.
Discuss a partnershipProfessionals in transition
For UN, NGO and international-organisation professionals: a change of role, leaving an organisation, a new path. Clarity on values, strengths and the next step.
Book a conversationGroup session: the Resonance Method
For a team: breath, rhythm or sound combined with coaching reflection. We begin with one trial session, then decide together.
Discuss a group sessionFees are discussed after a short conversation: they depend on the format and the participants. I work in Russian, Uzbek and English, online and in person in Tashkent.
Signature method
be present before the first word
The Resonance Method
A voluntary group format for teams: breath, movement, rhythm or sound combined with coaching reflection. It helps a group gather, align attention, and reach a conversation that might not otherwise happen. It rests on my medical training (anaesthesia and intensive care) and an understanding of how stress works in the body.
- 1
Tune in
A short practice brings participants back to the body and the present moment.
- 2
Direct attention
Rhythm, sound or movement gathers the group around a shared focus.
- 3
Make sense of it
Coaching reflection turns experience into decisions and agreements.
The method in action
What it sounds and looks like
What it looks like in practice
A seven-week pilot
- 1
Readiness check
The consultant or sponsor confirms that structure, roles, authority and KPIs are in order. If the problem is there, coaching will not help, and I will say so.
- 2
Numbers before we start
We choose one result and two metrics, for example the share of commitments kept on time or the time from problem to decision.
- 3
Seven weeks of practice
A kick-off session, small groups (four 90-minute meetings), optional one-to-one sessions. Up to 40 hours, in Russian, Uzbek or English.
- 4
Measure and decide
The same metrics at the end and after 60–90 days. We decide together: continue, adjust or stop.
Confidentiality: the sponsor receives only agreed work commitments and anonymised themes. What is said in sessions is not shared with third parties.

About
I help leaders carry decisions through complexity.
I am a physician, an anaesthesiologist and intensivist, with 14 years of practice. I then spent 16 years with UNICEF in more than six countries, including Uzbekistan, Sierra Leone, DPR Korea, Türkiye (Syria crisis response), Bangladesh and Ukraine. I built offices and led large programmes and teams where decisions had to work immediately.
Coaching became a natural continuation. What I value most is the moment a person finds their own way to act, and acts.
I am also a musician and songwriter (BahoRim). Rhythm and sound are part of my group work.

What this work is not

- It is not medical or psychological care.
- It does not fix systemic problems such as conflicting KPIs, unclear authority, lack of resources. I hand those back to the sponsor or consulting partner.
