While 360-degree feedback is a powerful tool to develop Leadership competencies in an organization, the data gathered and analyzed through the 360-degree survey process across management levels and the organization is too valuable to be ignored. We have launched the first phase of SelfStir Business Group Analytics (applicable to SelfStir Corporate plan only) to help […]
We’d also like to introduce Yasmine Noueihed as our latest addition to the SelfStir family. She is an amazingly talented software developer and an even more wonderful human being. She is now part of SelfStir’s DNA.
We can’t expect from people what we aren’t willing to give. We expect transparency and openness from our leaders and politicians, our families, our coworkers and members of our community, but if we aren’t willing to be open with them, we can’t expect transparency in return.

They provide skills that help you live your life with honor and dignity, and provide you with the […]
