Riyadh — Field notes, 2026

What to expect

01

Diagnose. Design. Deploy.
Then measure the impact.

No theatre. No framework for the folder. I sit with your leadership team, find the one constraint actually holding the organization back, design the change around it — and stay until it ships and the numbers move.

Expertise

02
E.01

Innovation strategy & governance

Structuring innovation programs that survive contact with the budget. Roadmaps, governance, and portfolio logic that map to Saudi Vision 2030 — and to the P&L.

E.02

Design thinking, done for real

Senior facilitator for human-centred innovation: empathy, problem definition, ideation, prototyping, testing — run as working sessions, not slide decks.

E.03

Knowledge & IP management

Turning what an organization already knows into a competitive asset — structured knowledge systems and intellectual-property strategy that compound.

E.04

AI-powered innovation

Where AI fits the workflow — and where it doesn't. Practical, team-level adoption frameworks tested against real operating constraints.
