Unleash Inner Authenticity

Find your place into your greatest leadership strength.

  • You exist between cultures, feeling disconnected and lacking purpose

  • You face conflicts between cultural expectations and personal aspirations, making survival-based decisions

  • You navigate multiple identities, authentic in none, led by your career instead of you leading it.

About Me

Awa Bernard

I'm Awa Bernard, a Leadership Transformational Coach and Career Consultant with 15+ years in recruitment and headhunting.

I currently serve as a Global Head of Talent while building LeaderShift Explorer.

Born between Senegalese and French cultures, I've experienced firsthand the challenge of belonging everywhere and nowhere simultaneously.

This journey shaped my understanding of identity and transformation.

I help professionals and teams move from "survival mode" (adapting to fit in) to "thriving mode" (embracing authenticity).

My approach combines embodied learning, gamification, self-discovery, and practical strategies.

My work is guided by five values:

  • Spirituality – Connecting with purpose beyond material success

  • Creativity – Creating new possibilities for transformation

  • Excitement – Bringing energy that ignites positive change

  • Wisdom – Making sound decisions while staying open to new perspectives

  • Passion – Approaching my work with deep commitment and joy

Ready to embark on your leadership transformation? Let's connect.
