Manisha Pratapsinh, a determined entrepreneur from Mozambique, has become a source of inspiration for women in business. From Mozambique to Portugal, France, and now Madrid, Manisha’s journey reflects her unwavering commitment to overcoming challenges in industries typically dominated by men.

In Mozambique, she founded a successful civil construction machinery company, inspired by her personal experience building her own home. Recently, she expanded her horizons by launching a bus company, driven by the pressing need for improved public transportation in her home country.

Manisha Pratapsinh is a prominent figure in industries where female representation is limited. Her success in civil construction and transportation demonstrates her tenacity and strategic acumen, challenging traditional gender norms and inspiring aspiring female entrepreneurs globally.

Establishing a bus company involves navigating logistical complexities, regulatory hurdles, and effective personnel management. When asked about her strategy to address these challenges, Manisha highlighted the significance of market research. “One strategy I’ve used is studying the market to identify areas with the greatest scarcity of such services,” she shared.

Manisha’s approach involves a thorough analysis of the market landscape. By pinpointing regions with insufficient public transportation, she strategically positions her company to address the unmet needs of the community. This careful planning ensures the viability of her business while contributing to the overall development of the regions she serves.

For Manisha, success transcends personal achievement; it signifies that individuals can rise to any height, irrespective of their country of origin, ethnicity, or physical appearance. She is passionate about spreading this message and encouraging others to pursue their dreams relentlessly.

Manisha Pratapsinh is proving that diversity and determination are integral to success.

World-renowned coach Bernard Hiller unlocks the secrets of business success at this weekend’s Dubai Transformational Workshop

No matter how highly accomplished, business people feel blocked sometimes. That’s why business wizard and acting coach to the stars, Bernard Hiller, is running a special Business Transformation Workshop in Dubai on 4-5 May.

Bernard is an expert in helping people achieve their goals in a unique way, teaching them how to become stars in their own career and life. Bernard has been in showbusiness and working with top CEOs for the past 35 years. He trains superstars and uses his methods and techniques to coach CEOs and business executives around the world. He guides the people he works with to overcome their blocks, fears and anything else that is holding them back from the career and life they’ve always dreamed of.

We asked him what people should expect from the workshop:

Why should people come to the Business Transformation Workshop?

“My unique methods and techniques have had unprecedented results. You don’t need more information, you need transformation – and this is the ultimate transformational class. When you invest in yourself, others will invest in you!”

“Only when you’re authentic will you be able to live your true life.”

“How will you know when you’re living authentically? You’ll be optimistic about your future, you’ll feel powerful, you’ll listen to your heart’s advice, and your soul will be visible to the world.”

Why is it so important to be your authentic self in business?

“If you are disconnected or afraid to be the real, authentic you, that is the main reason your career or life is not moving forward. You will not be able to reach your goals or dreams without accessing your highest self. We live in a world where we are not encouraged to be our authentic selves, but I will help you overcome everything that is stopping and blocking you.”

Bernard’s four behaviors that kill authenticity:

1. “Being a people-pleaser. There’s nothing wrong with pleasing people, or making them feel good with your humour, energy or positivity. However, the problem of being a people-pleaser is that you start to feel that this is the only way you are going to be loved.

“A people-pleaser neglects their own needs and therefore never becomes the person they need to be to succeed.”

2. “If you’re living in your past or afraid to change, you will not be authentic. Changing yourself reveals authenticity. You’re either the champion of change or you become a victim of change.”

3. “If you have a controlling personality. Controlling personalities do not allow anyone or anything in, and as a result you block yourself from those miracles that could turn your dreams and goals into reality.”

4. “Striving to be a perfectionist. Perfectionism is not about self-improvement. Perfectionism is, at its core, trying to earn the approval and acceptance of others.
