About Zana: Leadership Transformation Expert
Who Is Zana?
Zana is not just a professional speaker - she is a leadership transformation expert cultivating boldness in leaders, teams, and organisational cultures. As the founder of Bold Leadership Culture consultancy, bestselling author of two leadership books, with two decades of experience spanning corporate management and entrepreneurship, she has dedicated her work to helping organisations build bold leadership cultures that perform better.
Zana does two things few speakers can: captivate audiences with complex ideas made brilliantly clear on stage, then create conditions in boardrooms for leaders to feel safe enough to be challenged - and challenged enough to truly change.
Trusted by global organisations across big tech, banking, pharmaceuticals, the Big Four, and engineering, Zana consistently delivers measurable leadership transformation, building deep partner relationships that take organisations well beyond the keynote stage.

What’s Her Background?
Zana brings nearly two decades of experience as both a corporate manager and entrepreneur. Escorted out of a corporate building by security after a decade of service, it felt like the end. It was only the beginning.
That defining moment transformed Zana into a bold leadership authority. She rebuilt herself from the ground up by walking on the edge. Today, she engages C-suite leaders globally with talks and programmes that carry the full wisdom of that journey.
-
What’s Her Focus?
Zana works with senior and C-suite leaders across big tech, banking, pharmaceuticals, the Big Four, engineering, and technology - spanning Europe, the UK, the USA, and APAC. As a keynote speaker, leadership coach, consultant, mentor, and author, she champions one conviction: bold leaders are not born - they are developed.
She believes in building bold leadership cultures where reinvention is a skill, risk-taking is a mindset, and change is the greatest chance to succeed.
