Finding the Imagination Edge 

A Leadership Podcast with Omar Khan, Founder of Sensei International

Omar Khan

Omar Khan has lived in Pakistan, Germany, the US, UK, Kuwait, Saudi Arabia, the Netherlands, Japan, Dubai, Singapore and Sri Lanka. His father was an Ambassador for Pakistan, and he was educated both at Oxford University and then Stanford Law School.  In our far ranging 26 minute interview, Omar addresses topics as diverse as Viet Nam, Dubai, negotiation, and how to guard your passion.
Omar was one of the early pioneers of Transformational Learning in the US and worked with some of the original research team that developed Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP). Omar founded Sensei International, which focuses on improving the quality of business through leadership.

"Because there are always people able to produce cheaper, more efficiently, with better scale, we're having to find the imagination edge, the value-added edge.

"Because learning experiences are in such abundance here in the US, we almost treat learning experiences like doughnuts, as a series of sugar highs we can get."

Omar's vision is to make leadership 'possibility' REAL. Sensei operates in the Americas, the UK, Asia Pacific, South Asia and the Middle East. Sensei's clients include 3M, Motorola, Unilever, Microsoft, The Ritz-Carlton, Singapore Airlines, Standard Chartered Bank, Johnson&Johnson, KLM, Nestle, BusinessWeek, American Express and many others. Omar was rated by the Young President's Organization (YPO) as an 'All Star', their highest rating. He has shared the stage at international symposia with former President Bush, former PM John Major, former Aussie PM Bob Hawke, WTO Secretary General Dr. Supachai, and many others.
