Recentering People Development
Curios Development was founded on the principle of "presence-first". We want to focus on vertical development and putting the "people" back into "people development".
Rather than starting with capability and skill first, we start with the individuals and unlock what they have to offer.
Because once you can unlock potential, the sky is the limit.
Our Values
PRESENCE
Where are you right now? And where is your mind?
​
In a world of noise, aligning these two elements is crucial to both our wellbeing and our productivity.
PERSPECTIVE
When is the last time you checked what your "defaults" were?
Growing means understanding what we are carrying with us. Then understanding what we need to let go of and what we can keep.
POSSIBILITY
What is the world's trajectory? What is yours?
​
Presence and perspective unlock our ability to shape our trajectory and influence the trajectory of the world around us.
My name is Khalid.
For more information about who I am and why I founded Curios Development, check out this blog post.
​
In terms of what I've done, I come from a background in Physics research. During my years in academia, I fine-tuned my aptitude for analysis and methodology, while holding fast to interpersonal skills in my discretionary efforts. Scattered amongst my time in the lab were talks and workshops on science communication, mental health and inclusion.
​
As a consultant, I was able to embrace this side of myself more fully. I worked with graduates to senior executives, across industries and globally, in pursuit of executing strategy, leadership development, embedding innovation as a culture, and more.
​
I am also accredited in Mental Health First Aid and certified in the Intercultural Development Inventory assessment.
