Working with Women

Perihan Inci

Board Member of Inci Holding

I met Mrs. Ilbas in 2012, when I was getting ready to take over the post of Chairman of İnci Holding Board of Directors. 

In addition to my other responsibilities at that time, I was also about to take on the responsibility of reputation management of an important organization. 

Mrs. Ilbas' vast experience in communication and relationship management, and the work we did together made my life easier throughout my tenure. 

During our sessions on communication, relationship, and perception management, besides technical learning (preparation for presentations, rhetoric, way of speaking, creating content, concentration skills, etc.), I learned how to use my own potential more effectively, as well as how to identify my own shortcomings to foresee and overcome possible problems. 

If you need a communication  coach, choose Mrs. Ilbas without hesitation.

During her college years at Richmond, the American International University in London, my daughter Melisa Tapan was in need of professional guidance, communication training, and mentoring. 

Working with Mrs. Ilbas has tremendously improved my daughter's confidence and her ability to articulate herself. She became much more self-aware, poised, and improved her presentation skills. 

Mrs. Ilbas not only inspired Melisa, she made herself available in a continuous basis which provided my daughter with a sounding board whenever she needed one.

 I have worked with Muriel Omur Ilbas in two different stages. 

The first was when I was working on a specific project with a planned workout plan, my first public talk. 

The second time, we worked on a prolonged career mentorship program focusing on communication, analysis and management skills. 

In addition to adding analytical skills to my repertoire, her honest and genuine guidance has supported me in enabling my potential.

In IMCD Turkey, between 2010-2018, my team of managers and I had the chance of having one on one coaching sessions and besides, all team members had group coaching sessions with dear M. Omur Ilbas. 

We also had management skills trainings for managers and presentation skills trainings for all sales team from her. 

She always inspired us with her deep experience, real business life stories, her talent in art of public speaking and keeping us fully focused from the beginning till the end of the trainings with her charm and positive energy. Prior to each coaching session, I recall myself being overeager given the absolute relief and relaxation that I used to feel in the end.

Head of External Communications Operations Europe of TEREOS 

Muriel Omur Ilbas is one of the greatest professionals I've ever met. 

She is totally committed to her mission and her wide range of skills and experience is an incredible added value to any organization. 

Her thoroughness coupled with her ability to think out of the box, bring the projects to a whole level. 

We worked together at Groupama, and I hope I'll have the opportunity to work with her again.

Product Marketing Manager at Google

I had a chance to receive  coaching and mentoring services from Mrs. Ilbas.

Her professionalism and expertise helped me a lot to improve myself in especially senior stakeholder management. 

Without her consultancy, I would be an amateur professional in terms of communication skills and at disadvantage point in my career for sure. 

She was there for me, day and night, with her professionalism, sincere support and her learnings from private

sector for years.
