Marwa Karoura

Co-Founder & Managing Director, KTalk | Executive Coach & HR/Culture Strategist | Org Design, Leadership Pipelines & People Ops | MENA & Europe

As an HR and culture strategist, executive coach, and co-founder of KTalk, Marwa Karoura supports leaders and organizations to grow sustainably where performance is grounded in clarity, care, and sound operating rhythms. Her work spans the full people lifecycle: organization design, role architecture, capability building, leadership pipelines, performance and feedback systems, employee experience and engagement, and change governance.

Marwa’s approach is pragmatic and people-first. She starts by clarifying strategy and operating principles, then designs lean, human-centered processes that leaders can actually use. In practice, this looks like: role and team redesigns that reduce friction; leadership frameworks connected to real behaviors; performance and feedback rituals that improve accountability; meeting hygiene and decision rules that speed execution; and learning experiences that stick because they’re embedded into work.

An ICF Master Certified Coach (MCC), Marwa partners one-to-one with founders and senior leaders on presence, communication, decision hygiene, boundaries, conflict navigation, and leading through uncertainty. With teams, she facilitates trust-building, feedback, and alignment sessions that result in clearer agreements, simpler cadences, and measurable behavior change.
