Danish Sheikh is a charisma coach and entrepreneur based out of London, UK.[1][2][3][4][5][6] He is credited with starting the trend of charisma coaching in India and the Middle East, before expanding to the UK. He predominantly works with CXO executives, entrepreneurs, Bollywood celebrities and the members of a Middle-Eastern Royal family.[7][8][9][10][11]

Early life

Danish was born and raised in Indore, India, and attended St. Paul’s High School. He was an introverted, bullied kid and was not particularly academically minded.[2] He has said his life took a turn at the age of 16, when he read Dale Carnegie’s book How to Win Friends and Influence People, which put him on the path of self improvement in the coming years.[2][7][8]

Career

Danish began his professional career at the early age of 18, soon after finishing his school education in 2003. He managed to get a job at a leading IT company, Webdunia.com without relevant educational qualification and prior work experience, while competing against more experienced candidates twice his age.[8] In the following 10 years, he worked with Lionbridge, Microsoft, The Nielsen Company and Yahoo!.[2][7] Danish is considered to be the youngest International Product Manager in Yahoo’s history.[2][7] In 2013, Danish began his own work as a charisma coach, and later founded a leadership consulting company, ‘Charismatrix Ltd’, with presence in Mumbai, London and Dubai.[10][2][9][12]
