Dr Behrooz Behbod, the Founder of The Entrepreneur’s Doctor, has introduced a new initiative designed to assist health entrepreneurs in navigating critical decision-making processes with ease and clarity. Since its inception in November 2020, Dr Behbod’s venture has harnessed his extensive experience as a Harvard and Oxford-trained public health physician, boasting over 25 years of international expertise. Based in Cardiff, Dr Behbod merges his knowledge of public health with entrepreneurship to support professionals in managing the complexities of their field.
Dr Behbod’s journey into the world of entrepreneurship was sparked during his time at Harvard, where he witnessed the profound impact that business can have on global health. His career has included significant roles such as a fellowship at the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and providing public health consultancy for the NHS since 2018. Throughout his career, he has been a trusted advisor and mentor to health founders and wellbeing professionals, equipping them with the tools needed to thrive in challenging environments.
The Entrepreneur’s Doctor specialises in leadership coaching for entrepreneurs in the health, wellness, and wellbeing sectors, particularly those undergoing significant professional transitions. Dr Behbod’s unique approach, known as The Bamboo Effect, empowers clients to transform their leadership style and flourish during times of change, without being overwhelmed by complex decision-making. He offers personalised coaching to tackle both business challenges and personal emotional barriers, fostering resilience and long-term success.
Dr Behbod’s dedication to personal development is evident in his numerous qualifications, including a professional coaching certification accredited by the International Coaching Federation, alongside extensive training in business, marketing, sales, and personal growth. This commitment led to the creation of ‘One Insight Away’, the core of The Bamboo Effect, which integrates insight-driven and evidence-based decision-making to help health entrepreneurs steer their ventures with confidence, clarity, and creativity.
Burnout poses a significant threat to health leaders, a reality Dr Behbod is intimately familiar with through both his personal experiences and professional observations. He highlights the widespread issues of suicide, substance abuse, and stress within the sector, which have been exacerbated by the COVID-19 pandemic. His own journey from burnout to clarity serves as the foundation for his coaching practice, offering clients practical strategies to thrive while achieving their professional ambitions.
Dr Behbod has made substantial investments in his personal growth, spending over six figures on training and development. His self-published audiobook, “A Happy Life – Have We Got It All Wrong About Work, Health, and Love?” shares his insights on thriving amidst life’s challenges. His innovative approach has received positive feedback from clients, colleagues, and peers, reinforcing his status as a leading authority in health entrepreneurship coaching.
