Dr. Mahmoud Salah: Training champion who set new international standards In a world in which the voices are transcended and the ideas compete, the name of Dr. Mahmoud Salah, who was able to establish for himself a high position in the field of training and teaching. Dr. Mahmoud is considered a role model, as he succeeded in moving from the scope of academic education to the leadership of training seminars that affect the lives of thousands. The beginning appeared as an ordinary link, as Dr. Mahmoud took his first steps at the Faculty of Education at Ain Shams University, where his dream was to become a teacher. But the circumstances led him to the Faculty of Foreign Commerce at Helwan University, which was a turning point in his academic career. But he did not give up this transformation, but rather invested everything he learned to refine his skills and develop himself. The course of his life changed radically when he met Dr. Ibrahim Al -Fiqi, one of the most prominent names in the field of human development. From that moment on, Dr. Mahmoud’s journey began to achieve achievements, as he held important positions such as the President of the Youth of Qaliubiya Governorate and a member of the Presidential Council of the Republic Youth Parliament. He also contributed to writing the Egyptian constitution, which increased the elasticity of his passion for leadership and public action. Despite the challenges he faced, including financial difficulties, Dr. Mahmoud did not hesitate to seek his dreams. He worked hard to read religious heritage books, and was able to complete memorizing the Holy Quran. However, he remained out of political and religious affiliations, adhering to his personal values and principles. Dr. Mahmoud won a long time in the field of training, as he obtained many diplomas in management and self -development, in addition to the professional master’s degree in management and leadership, and a doctorate in training and teaching. He contributed to his qualifications and experience in training more than 150,000 trainees until early 2024, which reflects his wide impact. In 2017, he founded the Egyptian Board Academy, which became among the leading academies in the Middle East in the qualification of coaches. Many prominent figures in the field of training and leadership graduated from his hands through more than 9 Arab countries. One of his most prominent achievements worthy of the aforementioned is to set the ISO criteria for the coach, which has received an international approval by the American Authority of Science and Technology. Dr. Mahmoud had a prominent role in developing these standards, which aim to improve the quality of training and increase its effectiveness worldwide. Dr. Mahmoud believes that the big gap in the level of training in educational institutions and companies needs a unified framework. Hence his idea, in which he agreed between the efforts of experts from around the world to form comprehensive and applicable standards that enhance the quality of training and ensure effective results. The goals of the ISO criteria for the coach exceed merely providing a concept framework; It includes modern teaching methods, coaches’ performance evaluation, and training programs that meet the needs of the trainees better. Dr. Mahmoud Salah once again proved that commitment and knowledge can make the difference in people’s lives, and achieve success in various environments. In the end, Dr. Mahmoud Salah remains a symbol of inspiration and innovation in the field of training. His career deserves appreciation, and we hope that it will continue to stimulate hearts and minds to achieve more achievements. By: Raghda Mohammed Younis
