My Philosophy

R.E.A.L.I.S.T

Rather than looking at everything as a half-empty glass or half-full water, I see it as what it truly is and how to utilize it effectively. Everything that I do, including my coaching sessions, is based on the R.E.A.L.I.S.T philosophy; "R" stands for Redefiner; "E" stands for Expander; "A" stands for Authentic; "L" stands for Lively; "I" stands for I10%, "S" stands for Steadfast, and "T" stands for Truthful. In every area of my life, I bring that philosophy into play.

Teuku Muda Nanta

Iqbal has a very unique coaching style which made me feel relaxed, comfortable and open from the first time I was coached by him. It’s a mixture of utmost respect, active listening, humour and challenging. My sessions with him brought a lot of lightness and positivity because of the way he gently but very confidently supported me in the journey of self exploration. He saw a person in me rather than just a corporate employee with an issue… I guess this makes a big difference

A great motivator to anyone who needs to get things done.

The thing that makes a great coach is how they can find you, your own solution without showing any form of judgement — and Coach Iqbal is one of them. I’m amazed of how easy it js to talk to him and be open about all my issues. You can also tell that he’s (very) experienced by the way he cracks all the problems layer by layer and showing you how its all actually connected. Thank you, coach!

Bismillah. Known Iqbal for couple of years, a persistent and istiqamah person of what he does. He possess the necessary skills and knowledge while he was coaching me in regards to Dannie’s Kitchen and Kedai Makan Bareng business strategy. His patience in explaining things will put you at ease and make you feel comfortable. Share insightful ideas and able to put himself in your shoes by looking at client’s background.

Iqbal says that “Right now what you see that dust is just dust, nothing special. But if you keep ikhtiar, hard work, determination and trust Allah – He will give it to you at the right time, even only dust can become of ideas you’ll never think of. Just enjoy the process and remember all things are possible for those who believe.”

Well done! You finally enjoying the fruits of your hard work. Barakallah!.

Mr. Noor is good at coaching people as a person. With one coaching session with him, he let me see where are my strengths – trust, connection, commitment, fairness, and how I can use these strengths to build my business, where are the gap from my present state to my desired state, and what I will be my first few actions.

His coaching style is really a conversational, energized, and inspired me to explore my topic deeper and unlash my potential.

I got to know Iqbal as part of a Global Peer Coaching initiative recently. I was more than happy to be coached by him. Iqbal comes across as thorough in his process of coaching – a great listener and asks very strategic questions that helps a coachee reflect and go deeper into the subject. I appreciate Iqbal for his ability to smile, break down difficult situations , display his vulnerability and comes across with depth, intuition and a great sense of humor. In the very short span that I got to know Iqbal he came across to be with utter transparency and held a mirror infront of me. If you are looking out for coach to help you reach your next potential, I would not hesitate to recommend Iqbal to you. I wish Iqbal the very best in his coaching journey ahead.
