As a strategic and result-driven people leader with over 25 years of business and management experience across multiple markets and industries, I have a proven track record of delivering operational strength in complex growth or turnaround situations. A persuasive communication style and deep commercial acumen enable me to drive operational efficiency and subsequently shareholder value leveraging both my past failures and successes.Having spent 19+ years in the GCC, I possess an in-depth understanding of Middle Eastern & African markets and I am skilled in nurturing corporate growth through managing M&A, corporate investments, or greenfield developments within the TMT, Telecoms, Fintech, E-Commerce, and Retail sectors. I'm equipped with a broad digital & technical know-how and I thrive in crisis management situations, where applying innovation, organizational and financial dexterity are key to implementing positive change.In addition to a few senior roles with corporate giants, I am the founder of a digital agency in 2001, a management consulting firm in 2013, a Fintech startup currently in build mode, and the co-founder of a Corporate Venture Builder in 2018, I understand user experience design, product-market fit rational, business modeling, and all the drivers of value creation. Whether leading or advising start-ups or turning around mature businesses, I always pursue ROI performance to fulfill the KPIs of either the P/L or the valuation games.I love to lead by example and as a consensus-builder, I manage and motivate technical, administrative, or creative teams across multiple cultures, languages, and functions with ease and confidence. Overall, I'm passionate about driving growth, creating value, and achieving operational excellence in all my endeavors.C suites, board members or clients alike can think of me as an agent of change for managing complex Digital Transformation projects or driving with confidence their innovation and investment agenda.Specialties: Change Management & Transformation / Product Design & Information Architecture / Fintech / Telecoms / e-Commerce / P&L and Performance Improvement / Deal Structuring & Negotiation / Venture Capital & Investment Management / Venture Building
