Testimonials
Alex Classen, CEO, Coutts International
Homy worked for me for a year on delivering on our key strategic priorities, including the sale of our non-strategic business. I was very pleased with his approach to managing diverse groups of internal and external stakeholders through all stages of the transaction. Homy's ability to focus on strategic priorities, clearly communicating these to the team and engaging with external buyers helped us successfully deliver on our priorities. I look forward to working with Homy again as he was an extremely valuable asset to my team.

Senior government executive
I found Homy’s work quite effective in boosting my confidence in truly understanding the value and wealth of experience I bring to the table. His professional approach and technique guided me through that realisation that impacted how I restructured my CV and Bio and has led to more speaking engagements and shortlisting for more high profile senior executive roles then I anticipated. I found his method of listening and asking the right questions to guide you to realisation very powerful. It changed my outlook on my approach in pursuit of career transition. I am truly grateful.
Les Matheson, CEO, RBS Retail Bank
Homy is an extremely professional, action oriented individual. He worked with me for a number of months in very difficult circumstance but did not let the challenges distract him from getting the job done well. He was able to work across a large and complex organisation and despite not having worked for long in the company, he was able to convince senior managers to go along with his plans. Homy is a thoroughly reliable and professional manager.

Executive, entertainment industry
Mr. Dayani-Fard has been instrumental in my journey to find my true purpose in my professional life, and along the way, guiding me as a person to find the confidence and conviction I needed to be able to take a rather large leap of faith in myself. When I was introduced to Mr. Dayani-Fard I felt disconnected with my work, and knew that I was cut out to be in a completely different industry. His methods force one to answer the most crucial questions and yet to do so in a way that feels organic and breaks through all the clutter and complexities we tend to indulge in. Mr. Dayani-Fard does not judge, and in doing so, he taught me not to judge anyone, including myself. All the work we have done together has allowed me to switch careers, start my own company in this new career and enjoy the process of it all!
Ranjit Khanna, CEO, UBP Singapore
I have had the opportunity to work extensively with Homayoun over the past 12 months at Coutts and Co. He has been an excellent business partner and colleague with unique strategic insights into the Private Banking Industry in the UK, Switzerland and Asia.
Collectively we developed an execution oriented business strategy for the Asian Private banking market. Homayoun's capabilities for deductive reasoning as well as a delivery-oriented approach has helped us articulate a well thought through strategy.
I sincerely look forward to working continually with Homayoun as he is a true asset to have on our team.
