What others are saying about me
I am privileged to have a number of long-time clients that trusted my expertise, experience and knowledge. I am thankful for their gifts of publicly stating their appreciation of my work.

"Khurshida is a recognized expert in the organizational design and development and has numerous testimonials of clients and organizations whom she has helped as a consultant. I could not agree more when she states that “trust forms the foundation of healthy and thriving workplaces. It lies at the heart of a functioning, cohesive team. Without trust, teamwork is all but impossible.” Having attended her workshop before and seen her in action, I can attest that she is an engaged speaker and an expert in her field and you can learn a lot from her. Check out her course “Trust in the Workplace." In addition to live webinars you will get one-on-one sessions, a personalized development plan, assessment tools, trust-building strategies and access to peer learning and networking. Highly recommended!"

“I learned many tools that I can action in my role as a consultant. Really appreciated your sharing of knowledge and real life experiences. Also, appreciated your facilitation approach (and organization from confirmation email, to workbook, to language, tone and pace of the day). I would absolutely recommend Khurshida to others who need an organizational diagnostic, build a resilient culture or make an impact. I would also enjoy a possible future collaboration. Thank you for an awesome day.”

"I know Khurshida from her assignment as the Head of ICRC frontline office. She was responsible for a number of files: from human resources management and administration, communication with local authorities, military and media and cooperation with the Azerbaijani Red Crescent Society. I was impressed by her input into collection of data and analysis related to situation of civilians living along the Nagorny Karabakh frontline. Khurshida confirmed her adaptability, initiative and great capacity to work independently."

"I found very valuable Khurshida’s systems thinking approach to the organizational diagnostic. Her cause-effect analysis and ultimate findings were insightful. I also appreciated her personal qualities: high integrity, high emotional intelligence, patience and consistency. I would recommend Khurshida to others who need an evaluation or workplace restoration consultation."

Check it out, ask her if there’s any burning question, and register! This is all about knowing what it takes to trust yourself, create a culture that fosters it, and many other key insights."

"This would be such a great workshop to take. "Trust in the workplace" is essential for everyone who works with a team. The last workshop that I took with Khurshida Mambetova was “Diagnostic Thinking.” It was so informative, well thought out and organized. I took away a great deal of skills that serve me till this day. Keep up the good work!"

"Khurshida helped most people I interacted with to get some closure in a highly emotional and tensed organizational phase. Sharing an external perspective and encouraging us to use a ‘beginner’s mindset’ were helpful elements in our workplace restoration process."
