The right mix of passion and talent.

Dr. Zephorah Weru

Founder, CEO
LinkedIn Profile

By nature, I am an optimistic problem-solver, who is inspired by the innate potential of each individual to continually grow, learn, thrive and realize new horizons. As a coach, mentor and facilitator, I work with professionals on career progression, leadership coaching and managing transitions.

My experience spans over 25 years working with the United Nations, leading Human Resources Teams in different offices and continents culminating in a global leadership of the HR function within the United Nations Framework of Climate Change (UNFCCC), Bonn – Germany. The consistent thread of my interactions across the different levels of responsibility that I have held, has been my passion for people-centric leadership. The positive results of tens of individuals whom I have had the opportunity to work with and see them grow in their chosen career paths, have continually fueled my motivation to inspire others to rise above their current perceived limitations.
