Who I Work With
Financial institutions, technology companies, and consulting firms seeking to strengthen leadership capability across all levels of the organization—from emerging leaders and mid-level managers to senior executives and the C-suite.
What I Deliver
- Leadership Development Programs: Tailored 1- to 3-day tracks built around your organization's business priorities, leadership challenges, and workplace realities.
-
Strategic Leadership Advisory: Engagements that diagnose systemic leadership capability gaps and design practical strategies to execute change and build long-term agility.
-
Executive Coaching: Individual and team coaching that helps leaders navigate greater responsibility, organizational transitions, and complex market uncertainty.
-
Speaking: Keynotes, executive forums, and conference workshops focused on leadership disciplines, complexity, and the future of executive leadership.
How I Work
Every engagement begins with deep discovery. Before recommending a solution, I work with clients to perform systemic diagnostics on their business priorities, underlying capability gaps, team dynamics, and organizational context. Leadership development programs are then tailored strictly around those findings.
Pre-program assessments ensure the content directly reflects participants' real workplace challenges—such as digital transformations, scaling friction, or structural market changes—while post-program evaluations measure actual behavioral shifts.
Where additional support is needed, individual or cohort executive coaching helps leaders step onto the balcony and translate these new disciplines into sustained workplace performance.
What We Offer
Strategic Leadership Advisory
We partner with financial institutions, technology, and consulting firms to assess core capabilities, identify systemic adaptive, transformative, and change leadership gaps, and design practical solutions aligned with business priorities, M&As, digital overhauls, and long-term strategic growth.

What Makes Innovation Bazar Different
Diagnosis Before Design
Every engagement begins with understanding your organization's leadership context before recommending a solution. Through discovery, leadership assessments, and stakeholder conversations, we identify the adaptive, transformative, and change leadership capabilities that will have the greatest impact on your leaders and teams.
Bridging the Strategy-Agility Gap
If Change Leadership answers “How do we structure and execute a major enterprise initiative?”, Adaptive Leadership answers “How do we lead when the path forward is completely unclear?” We deliberately combine both. We provide the structured, linear execution models needed for massive transformations (M&A, digital overhaul, restructuring) while building the deep emotional and psychological agility required to navigate market uncertainty.
Practitioner Experience
Innovation Bazar is led by Maryam Daryabegi, whose two decades of experience across financial institutions, technology, consulting, and executive education shape every client engagement. Having led, advised, and coached organizations across North America, Europe, the Middle East, Asia, and Latin America, she designs leadership development experiences grounded in the realities of how global organizations operate.
Our Leadership Framework
Technical expertise alone is no longer enough. Organizations need leaders who can navigate complexity, expand how they lead, and guide others through change. Every engagement is built around three interconnected leadership disciplines that address the Why, Who, and What of organizational evolution:
-
Transformative Leadership (The Why & Where): The visionary mindset used to inspire people, move beyond transactional exchanges, and define the future culture. We focus on expanding executive mindsets, raising moral alignment, and elevating motivation so teams pursue a mission larger than individual self-interest.
-
Adaptive Leadership (The Who & How): The psychological framework used to help people navigate the messy, uncertain middle and overcome resistance to change. We teach leaders to distinguish between technical problems and adaptive challenges, safely "get on the balcony" to diagnose systems, and regulate organizational pressure.
-
Change Leadership (The What & When): The structured, step-by-step execution model (like Kotter’s 8 steps) used to safely land the initiative. We transition teams from simply managing logistics to leading transformation by building a guiding coalition, establishing urgency, driving early wins, and anchoring new behaviors into the permanent corporate culture.
Together, these three disciplines form a complete ecosystem that helps leaders and teams achieve higher productivity, higher performance, and sustained growth.
Truly Global
