Tanveer Naseer

Hi, my name is Tanveer Naseer, and I'm an internationally-acclaimed keynote speaker and award-winning leadership writer. I'm also the Founder and CEO of Tanveer Naseer Leadership, a leadership corporate training and consulting firm that works with executives and managers to help them develop practical leadership and team-building competencies to drive organizational growth and development.

My work and writings have been featured in Forbes, Fast Company, Inc Magazine,The Globe and Mail, The Economist, CBC Radio Daybreak, Global News, and the Ritz-Carlton Leadership Center.

I'm the recipient of several awards and recognitions as one of the world's top thinkers in the leadership sphere, including being recognized by Inc.Magazine as one of the Top 100 Leadership and Management Experts.

I've been very active on speaking circuit, giving keynote speeches and talks across Canada, United States, Europe, and the Middle East in a wide range of industries in both private and public sectors, as well as the military.

My keynotes and corporate training sessions have received rave reviews from clients including Boehringer Ingelheim, Capital One Canada, Henkel, TJX Canada, Canadian Armed Forces, Blinkist, Boston Children's Hospital, Canadian Broadcasting Corporation (CBC), Dematic, CMHC, Tomlinson Group, ERAC, Project Management Institute (PMI), McGill University, Lonza Group, VIPAR, Boehringer Ingelheim Canada, NAED, and the Government of Canada. I've even given a TED talk titled “Forget Passion – Purpose is the Real Spice of Life”.

My engaging and thought-provoking style and content has lead to my recognition by Inc. Magazine as one of today’s “100 Great Leadership Speakers”.

I'm also the host of the popular and long-running "Leadership Biz Cafe" podcast, which has been ranked among the top 2.5% of podcasts globally, and which Inc Magazine has described as feeling "like you're sitting down for a cup of coffee with two leadership experts to learn about how to become that leader our employees need us to be."

My book, "Leadership Vertigo" has received rave reviews and endorsements by many of today's top leadership thinkers and practitioners.

I earned my Master of Science degree in Pathology from the Faculty of Medicine at McGill University and currently live in Montreal, Canada with my wife and our three beautiful daughters.
