Sharif Khan

Sharif Khan is President and founder of Diamond Mind Enterprises, an organization devoted to transforming coal minds into diamond minds through the applied pressure of higher knowledge, wellness education and leadership training. His vision is "to inspire the world with hope, faith, love, respect, excellence and the courage to dream".

Sharif has dedicated over ten years of research in the field of human potential development and studying great leaders. He is a very dynamic, highly engaging and much sought after public speaker who lectures about topics on what makes great leaders, the winning qualities of leadership, success and what makes a hero, to a wide range of audiences from university students to associations to the corporate world.

Having had the opportunity to live abroad in Pakistan, Saudi Arabia and American and experience world travel, Sharif was exposed to people of different faiths at a very early age. In his travels, he saw the shared humanity and divinity within every soul. Yet, he also saw the hatred in people towards those of a different creed or colour. Having been a victim of racial hatred himself, Sharif has embarked on a lifetime quest to understand and share how one overcomes adversity, how one maintains a positive concept of self and how world leaders triumph over the bonds of ignorance.

The author now also serves as a book consultant specializing in helping people successfully produce, sell and market their information products. After finishing his Bachelors in Psychology at York University, he went on to successfully manage and operate a Bestsellers Franchise for over five years selling, marketing and promoting books and various multi-media.
