You’ve been in strategy and consulting for more than 30 years. What originally pulled you into consulting, and at what point did you decide to build 4D Business Consulting instead of staying in a single industry or academic track? 2. When clients come to you at 4DBC, what is the core problem they’re usually struggling with? What patterns do you see across the MENA region that your consulting work is designed to fix? 3. Who are your ideal clients right now, investors, corporates, public institutions, and who are the real decision-makers you need to influence inside those organizations? 4. You operate across consulting, standards, space, and education. In practice, how do most consulting opportunities find you? What has consistently worked to bring qualified clients into your world? 5. Consulting in strategy and investment advisory often involves long sales cycles and multiple layers of approval. What does your sales process look like, and how do you move stakeholders from interest to commitment? 6. Once you’re inside a client organization, what do you personally do to build trust, deliver results, and turn that engagement into a long-term relationship? How do you ensure clients keep coming back to 4DBC? 7. As someone leading several organizations at once, 4DBC, IFGICT, KSF Space, and more, where do you find yourself most stuck right now as a consultant, if at all? 8.
