Meet Dr. Nadya Zhexembayeva

A scientist, author, speaker, executive in the global mining sector, and founder of Reinvention Academy, Dr. Nadya Zhexembayeva is one of the pioneering voices turning reinvention into a practical discipline for leaders and organizations.

For more than 25 years, she has helped leaders, consultants, and organizations build reinvention as a system — not a one-time transformation project.

She has trained 22,000+ leaders, consultants, and changemakers worldwide in the practice of reinvention, and her Reinvention Method™ is now used by certified professionals across 51 countries and 32 industries.

A former Coca-Cola Chaired Professor of Sustainable Development, 4× TEDx speaker, contributor to Harvard Business Review, Forbes, Financial Times, and other leading global publications. Dr. Nadya combines academic depth, executive experience, and practical reinvention work across industries.

Her work gives practitioners and leaders the language, tools, and confidence to help themselves, their clients, and their organizations reinvent before disruption makes the decision for them.
