Founder & CEO
A decade-strong consultant and trainer on Leadership, Enterprise and Technology.
Umair Jaliawala founded Torque in Karachi in 2008 as a corporate outlet for budding trainers like himself, and has spent seventeen years building it into a tribe. He is a decade-strong consultant and trainer on Leadership, Enterprise and Technology — the LET frame that runs through most of his work.
He co-founded the School of Leadership Foundation, which scaled to a nationwide NGO reaching over one million young people across 110 cities and villages in partnership with 150+ NGOs and CBOs, and co-led delivery of the British Council DICE Fellowship across 14 cities.
He has staged more than a hundred Dastaan storytelling sessions across Pakistan, and works on entrepreneurship and social entrepreneurship, community participation, and the inclusion of minorities, persons with disabilities and other genders.

It was truly worth having him over, and we look forward to future opportunities to learn and collaborate.”
“Thank you Umair Jaliawala and the Torque team for your hard work and passion for this project.
