Episode 12: Today, Dr. Omar Ayyash, President and CEO of the World Trade Center Kentucky interviews performance psychologist, Dr. Kozhi Maki.

Meet Dr. Kozhi Makai

Kozhi and his wife spend a lot of time with their young son. As a performance psychologist, he spends the majority of his time working with corporate executives and teams. He also works in the educational space, on a limited basis. His corporate clients are typically those managing global brands, located in the US and abroad. Kozhi helps them to better understand their internal cultures, to develop their interpersonal communication skills and to improve how they leverage agility in a global environment.

Dr. Makai concludes his comments with a focus on consistent improvements. He likens our skills to an axe. He has an old axe in his office. He explains that it represents what happens to our skills if we don’t take the time to sharpen them, on a regular basis. If you neglect this focus, your challenges will seem increasingly more difficult. We need to be working on sharpening our skills. As leaders, this will help us to make a difference in people’s lives.

Dr. Ayyash takes a moment to explain how the World Trade Center Kentucky has a toolbox to help professionals navigate the international marketplace. The WTCKY also has programs designed for universities.
