GCC Business Resilience Advisor

Build the resilience
your business demands.

I have spent two decades turning complex operational environments into high-performing systems β€” eliminating ICU infections, redesigning hospital operations under COVID-19, and leading high-stakes analytical work for Fortune 500 companies at KPMG. Now I build the resilience infrastructure GCC business leaders need to survive disruption and lead the recovery. PhD. ex-KPMG. New York and GCC.

Operational resilience advisory for GCC business leaders.

The GCC operating environment demands a different kind of resilience infrastructure. Conflict, geopolitical disruption, supply chain fragility, and rapid market shifts are not hypothetical risks β€” they are operating conditions.

My work is grounded in two decades of applied operational transformation: eliminating ICU bloodstream infections from 72 to zero, redesigning 33 operating rooms to generate $84K in monthly savings, leading the redeployment of 488 staff during COVID-19, and auditing $1.5 billion in government grants at KPMG. The frameworks I teach are not theoretical β€” they have been tested under real institutional pressure.

I work with founders, managing directors, and senior leadership teams across the UAE, Saudi Arabia, and Qatar to build the systems, frameworks, and management tools that allow their businesses to operate through disruption and capture the growth that follows.
