Shaun Thompson is a learning and capability leader based in Dubai, with 17 years of experience spanning the UK and UAE. He currently leads learning strategy, product development, and an entrepreneurship incubation programme at Trusity, where he has built partnerships with major organisations including ENOC, Spinneys, GEMS Education, and the Abdullah Al Ghurair Foundation.
His career sits at the crossroads of learning, technology, and business, having delivered national-scale teacher training programmes for the UAE Ministry of Education, built digital learning platforms for Emirates Schools Establishment, and mentored over 80 entrepreneurs through investor pitches and early-stage growth.
Shaun's approach is rooted in connecting people development to real commercial outcomes, whether that's coaching a founder ahead of a pitch, building a sales enablement programme, or shaping a digital product roadmap. He brings a grounded, person-centred perspective shaped by his early career working with young people with additional needs, an experience he credits as the foundation of how he leads and teaches today.
