Ruqaya Ibrahim

Ruqaya is an organisational psychologist and ICF Professional Certified Coach who helps senior leaders strengthen their presence, navigate complex relationships and lead with greater confidence through change.

Her career spans architecture, project management, organisational development and leadership coaching. This combination gives her a practical understanding of delivering change alongside insight into the human dynamics that shape decisions, relationships and team performance.

With over a decade of experience, Ruqaya has supported leaders and teams internationally, including at Aramco, L'Oréal, Disney+ and the World Food Programme. She holds a Master's degree in Social-Organizational Psychology from Columbia University and works in both Arabic and English.

Ruqaya brings warmth, curiosity and a sense of playfulness to her coaching, balanced with thoughtful challenge. She helps clients question assumptions, recognise unhelpful patterns and explore different perspectives, while keeping sight of their leadership goals.

Moving between specific situations and the bigger picture, she explores how leaders respond to challenges and affect those around them. She uses assessments, Positive Intelligence and experiential exercises to help clients recognise habitual reactions and develop greater choice in how they respond under pressure.

Clients can expect space to think openly, support to explore uncomfortable questions and encouragement to experiment. Ruqaya helps clients turn insight into practical changes in how they lead, make decisions and influence those around them.
