“Leadership is not measured by what you do behind closed doors—it’s assessed the moment you enter the room. Executive presence and self-image determine who is trusted and taken seriously at the top.” — Karima Labrini, Founder & CEO
Karima Labrini, a leading executive advisor specializing in executive presence, strategic leadership, and self-image branding, announces the expansion of her advisory services for senior executives, founders, and high-net-worth investors in Dubai and the Middle East. Her mission: equip leaders with the tools, frameworks, and confidence to command authority, make strategic decisions, and create lasting influence in high-stakes environments.
Karima’s advisory firm empowers leaders to align their personal identity with professional impact. She works with CEOs, C-suite executives, and founders across finance, luxury, technology, and professional services to project credibility, cultivate trust, and strengthen influence across investor and business networks.
“Leaders today are evaluated not just by results but by how they are perceived,” says Karima Labrini. “Our approach ensures executive presence, strategic clarity, and operational efficiency work together to build long-term trust and influence.”
