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.
“Perfectionism symptoms prevent you from taking the risks and making the mistakes you need to make to become extraordinary.”
“To be human is to be imperfect, and when you embrace those qualities within yourself, you can soar.”

Mark Hollenstein: The Art of Intentional Tension
Mark Hollenstein doesn’t make art to decorate a space—he transforms it.
At first glance, his work feels controlled and deliberate, almost architectural in its precision. Every element appears carefully placed, every line measured. Yet the longer you look, the more that composure begins to vibrate. Beneath the structure lives tension, wit, and a distinctly human push against boundaries.

Hollenstein works in dualities. Discipline meets instinct. Restraint meets emotion. His compositions are clean but never cold; refined yet alive. Each mark carries intention. Nothing is arbitrary. Nothing exists merely to fill space. The result is work that feels purposeful—earned rather than assembled.

Like a strategist surveying a chessboard, Hollenstein studies form not only for what belongs, but for what can be removed. Through reduction and reconstruction, he creates pieces that feel unmistakably contemporary while remaining free from the gravity of trends.

There is also an understated sense of play. His art resists over-explanation. It invites pause. Spend time with a piece and it begins to unfold—layer by layer, perspective by perspective. He trusts the viewer to engage, to discover, to meet the work halfway.

That quiet confidence sets him apart. Even in abstraction, his work is grounded. It doesn’t clamor for attention. It doesn’t chase approval. It simply stands—self-assured and exact.

In a culture that equates excess with impact, Mark Hollenstein reminds us that clarity can be the most powerful statement of all.
