What Masters Legacy Co. does

Masters Legacy Co. is a privately held consulting and training firm headquartered in Manama, Bahrain, that operates as the exclusive Middle East and North Africa partner for the Birkman Method, a behavioral and occupational assessment originally developed by psychologist Dr. Roger Birkman in 1951. The company delivers individual consultations, training and development programs, and a Birkman Certification Course through a network of more than 500 certified Birkman consultants, supported by exclusive in-country distribution partners — Management Systems Solutions Co. in Saudi Arabia and Maximize Center for Training in Qatar — and a strategic alliance with DL Consulting for organizational structuring and executive coaching work.

The core product is the Birkman behavioral assessment, used by the company for career guidance, leadership development, HR management, and organizational design, with the certification course accredited by the International Coaching Federation (up to 28 learning hours) and the Society for Human Resource Management (up to 22 learning hours). Service delivery is conducted primarily through one-on-one consultant sessions rather than a software platform, and the company operates across twelve MENA countries plus Pakistan.

The business model is professional services, quote-based, with three revenue streams: Birkman Assessment Consultations, Training and Development Programs, and the Birkman Certification Course. Customer segments span Saudi government ministries, large Saudi enterprises in banking, telecommunications, and oil and gas (including Aramco, Al Rajhi Bank, STC, Zain, Mobily, and Bank Albilad), educational institutions such as King Saud University and Princess Nourah bint Abdulrahman University, and individual professionals. Marketing relies on a bilingual Arabic/English website, an email newsletter with a 15% new-subscriber promotion, and direct engagement through the certified consultant network.
