Hi, I’m Nadja El Fertasi
Â
I’m the founder of Thrive with EQ, and this isn’t just another leadership program—it’s my life’s work.
For nearly two decades at NATO, I worked in high-stakes environments where I witnessed firsthand the impact of stress, burnout, and uncertainty on leaders and teams. I led cross-cultural collaboration with stakeholders from over 40 nations, navigating crises and driving transformations in some of the most challenging circumstances.
But my journey didn’t stop there. After experiencing burnout myself, I realized the critical need for leaders to build resilience—not just for their teams, but for themselves. I pursued certifications in Emotional Intelligence, NLP Life Coaching, and Character Strengths to combine cutting-edge research with practical solutions that truly work.
At Thrive with EQ, I’ve made it my mission to help leaders like you bridge the gap between humanity and technology. We can’t thrive in a world of AI-driven change by overinvesting in technology and underinvesting in people.
Let’s create a future where your organization maximizes its human potential while leading fearlessly in the digital age.
