About Me
Dr Farnaaz Sharief MBE | BCAh, MBChB, MRCGP | Senior Fellow Faculty of Medical Leadership and Management
Multi-award-winning Resilience Trainer I International Speaker I Clinician I Consultant I Executive Coach I NLP Practitioner I NHS Clinical Entrepreneur
My aspiration is to engage, enable and empower individuals, teams and organisations.
- I am an experienced Medical Director and DISC certified coach with extensive experience in working across organisational boundaries to empower individuals.
- A GP by background, I have over 15 years of experience working with multidisciplinary teams across primary and secondary care. Throughout my extensive career I have gained an in depth understanding of the challenges faced by clinical leaders and developed a multi-award-winning resilience programme that has seen people improve their psychological well-being, build confidence and enhance fulfilment in their job roles. This saw me feature on the Queen’s birthday honours list in 2018 and receive a British Citizens Award for healthcare at the House of Lords the year before.
- I create safe reflective spaces, using robust coaching methodologies, such as the GROW model to inform my approach. I encourage people to think differently, recognise their strengths and bring about meaningful change to their personal and professional lives. My facilitated sessions are a balance of gentle humour, constructive challenge, grounding mindfulness and interactive discussion that enhance individual strengths and enable purposeful engagement. By using DISC assessments, I help individuals improve their understanding of themselves by giving them more insight into how they make tough decisions, deal with negative feedback, improve relationships and gain more influence.
- My clinical acumen, leadership style and solution focused approach has strengthened clinical teams across health and care partnerships and established placed based clinical collaboratives built on mutual trust and respect. As a senior clinical leader, I have led numerous high performing teams, encouraging them to think creatively and deliver new models of care that improve patients’ experience and health outcomes.
