Director IT Strategy•Colleague

I know Adel since January 2008 and worked together with him on various occasions. Our collaboration intensified during the last two years when I signed responsible the global IT Strategy practice at SABIC. IT People Development, led by Adel, was one of my main stakeholders during the set-up and execution of SABIC's global IT strategy. Here Adel gave valuable input and brought in his strong track record and in-depth knowledge across multiple IT disciplines. He combines exceptional analytic skills with a healthy "can-do" attitude and a realistic instinct for what is achievable. His environment recognizes him as a valuable team member, a trusted advisor and a respected manager. I wish Adel all the best for his future and I am positive that his proven capabilities shall take him and anybody he is working for far.

Adel is one of few people that I worked with that have very strong analytical skills which can fit in any role. Adel can use his skills to adapt to the organizational changes. He was able to build the IT career development and competences framework and took the lead in this.
