A Mindful Escape partners up with Gulf Formations for team wellbeing and productivity
In today’s fast-paced business environment, young and growing companies often face challenges in maintaining structure, clarity, and effective time management. Gulf Formations, a leading business setup consultancy in the UAE, partnered with A Mindful Escape to equip their team with the tools they need to set clear goals, increase productivity, and create sustainable work habits.
This case study explores how we worked with Gulf Formations’ team of ten professionals to build a foundation of structure, focus, and efficiency that will support their long-term success.

Clarity in Goal Setting – Helping a young team define and align personal and professional goals.

As a fast-growing business with a youthful team, Gulf Formations wanted to develop stronger internal structures that would allow them to scale effectively while maintaining motivation and balance.
