In today’s episode of Discover Fresh Perspectives, host David Gouthro sits down with Reza Rahmani, an accomplished coach with a unique journey from engineering to leadership development. Reza shares his story of navigating well-defined career paths as the child of immigrant parents, how his curiosity and drive for impact led him from clean energy engineering into HR, and ultimately into the world of coaching. 

David and Reza dive into the art and science of coaching—exploring how leaders can bridge analytical thinking with emotional intelligence, find their footing through major transitions, and uncover the deeper values and blind spots shaping their professional journeys. Along the way, they reflect on the differences between coaching and counselling, the power of self-reflection, and why embracing our inner game (with a little help from tennis analogies) can make all the difference. 

Whether you’re considering working with a coach or simply interested in new perspectives on leadership, this conversation promises thoughtful insights and a few laughs along the way. Press play!

Reza's Brief Bio

Reza Rahmani began his career working on clean energy projects, aiming to make a positive impact on the world. Driven to expand his influence, he explored various engineering roles, as well as positions in procurement and supply chain management, seeking work that connected him more closely with people. 

Still searching for deeper fulfillment, Reza’s path took an unexpected turn into Human Resources after developing a strong rapport with his company’s head of HR—a certified coach. Inspired by this mentor and his own passion for personal growth, Reza embraced coach training, merging his interest in self-improvement with a new purpose: empowering others to achieve their best through meaningful human connection.
