Meet Uma

I’m Uma, the creator and founder of Up-Psyche. With over 25 years of experience in business management, finance, and organizational psychology, I’ve worked with diverse teams around the globe. My journey has taken me from vibrant cities like Singapore to the Middle East, West Africa, and Europe, each experience shaping my understanding of leadership and the importance of maintaining balance in life and work.
But my journey hasn’t been without its challenges. Like so many, I once faced the pressure of constant deadlines and the drive for excellence that led to burnout. In that moment, I asked myself: What does true leadership look like, and how can leaders empower others without losing themselves in the process?
Determined to find answers, I pursued my studies in Behavioral and Organizational Psychology, deepening my understanding of emotional intelligence, resilience, and how they intersect with leadership. These insights became the foundation of Up-Psyche. I realized that leadership thrives when well-being is prioritized, not just for the leader, but for the entire team and organization. Sustainable success isn’t about pushing harder; it’s about leading with intention and heart.
I sincerely hope that you find my insights useful. Please feel to contact me if you would like me to discuss other topics.
