Amr Hijazi
Lawyer Leadership Coach
Driven by my innate passion for empowering people and helping them grow their capabilities and potential, I transitioned to coaching and counseling after being an international corporate lawyer for 10 years. Now I help lawyers learn how to manage their stress, avoid a burnout, raise their productivity and profitability, and become more fulfilled in their personal and professional lives.

Ever since I was young, I’ve always been curious about the world around me and always enjoyed challenging and growing my abilities. That led me to study law, get my LLB, work as an international corporate lawyer for 10 years between Jordan, the UAE, and the UK, and gain an invaluable wealth of knowledge and expertise during that period about myself and others, including how to appreciate our uniqueness and similarities, how to handle ‘change’ and tough times, and how to keep balance in my life.
Despite a demanding profession, curiosity and growth-seeking always motivated me to explore different skills, sports, and interests, and caused me to grow a particular passion towards martial arts, practices of spirituality, and travel.
In 2019, curiosity and growth-seeking prompted me to relocate to Canada and transition my career to a new path that allowed me to honor my innate passion to connect with people on a fundamental level, and help empower them to become the best versions of themselves. That is when I enrolled with the Co-Active Training Institute to start my professional training, and started my journey as a leadership coach.
Along the way, I recognized that if I had known during my legal career how to manage myself as I now know, I would have been more effective at my work and more fulfilled in life. That is when I decided that my mission will be to help other lawyers raise the self-awareness and self-management they need to become more effective and get more fulfilled in their lives, or otherwise assist them in taking brave decisions and transitioning to where they need to be at.
Since then, I’ve been leaning on my knowledge, my expertise, and my professional coaching skills to support, inspire, and push my clients to take charge, make meaningful changes in their lives, and unleash their fullest potential.
Now my dream is a world where everyone realizes their fullest potential and there is universal care, cooperation, and support amongst people.
