Maryam Daryabegi

Founder & CEO, Innovation Bazar
Leadership Consulting, Training & Coaching for Financial Services
Executive Coaching & Advisory | Senior Lecturer | Forbes & HBR Advisory Council Member

I partner with banks to build leadership capability in client-facing roles—supporting bankers and leaders as they align teams, navigate change, and perform consistently in complex, regulated environments.

​

My career bridges three environments that shape how I work today: managing high-net-worth client portfolios, leading enterprise leadership and change initiatives at IBM, and building leadership capability through Innovation Bazar. This combination of operating experience and enterprise-scale advisory work allows me to support leaders who are accountable for outcomes in real work—not just strategy.

​

Through Innovation Bazar, I work across consulting, leadership development, and executive coaching to strengthen leadership capability for client-facing bankers and leaders navigating growth, change, or strategic reset.

​

I’ve worked across levels and contexts—from managing investment portfolios to advising senior leaders on complex change, and teaching leadership at Columbia University and MIT Sloan School of Management. I focus on what holds up under pressure: clear thinking, aligned teams, and leadership that consistently shows up in how work gets done and how clients are served.
