Q: What motivated you to join the Qadat program at Strategy&, and what were you hoping to gain from the experience?
A: I was drawn to Qadat for the exposure and accelerated learning that comes with management consulting, and for the chance to build a skillset that is difficult to replicate in other career paths. Strategy& stood out to me in particular because of its strong values, people-first culture, and clear emphasis on mentorship and long-term development.

What truly differentiated the experience, even early on, was the open-door culture and the close, day-to-day exposure to partners and senior partners, demonstrating a genuine sense of support. I was looking for hands-on experience solving complex problems in a high-performing, and collaborative environment that invests in its people, and the program has delivered strongly on that.

Q: How has your experience in the program been so far, especially in your first few weeks?
A: From day one, the experience has been extremely positive. What stood out most in my first few weeks has been the culture. There is a genuine sense of camaraderie, a strong emphasis on mentorship, and an approachability across all levels that makes it easy to ask questions and learn quickly.

As I met more people and started working across teams, it became clear that Strategy& actively prioritizes continuous learning and development. There is a real commitment to helping individuals succeed, and that early experience reinforced that joining the firm was the right decision for me.

Q: Can you tell us about your first project, your role on the team, and an output you are particularly proud of?
A: My first project was in the telecommunications sector, where we delivered a group-wide AI strategy and rapid value realization program for a large telecom organization. The focus was on scaling AI adoption and prioritizing high-impact use cases across the group.

As a business analyst, I was closely involved in developing the executive-level strategy, identifying AI use cases, supporting vendor evaluations, and prioritizing initiatives based on financial impact across the group.

One output I am particularly proud of was the structuring of AI use cases across the group and its OpCos. I supported the research, structuring, and visual development, translating complex inputs into clear, comparable, and executive-ready views that directly informed prioritization decisions.

Q: What new skills did you have to develop quickly during this first project?
A: The pace of the project pushed me to develop a much more focused and efficient way of working. I learned how to prioritize effectively in a fast-moving environment with competing demands, while maintaining high quality.

I also strengthened my ability to receive real-time feedback to iterate quickly and continuously refine my work. Managing multiple projects, while delivering under tight timelines, created a steep learning curve, but an incredibly rewarding one.

Q: What has been a highlight of the program for you so far?
A: One of the biggest highlights has been the opportunity to contribute to, and present work that directly informs decisions made by senior executives. Seeing how the analyses and recommendations we develop are used at the highest levels of leadership has reinforced the scale, responsibility, and real-world impact of the work done at Strategy&, even early in my career.

Q: Looking ahead, what types of projects or industries are you most excited to explore next?
A: I am particularly excited to work on government and public sector engagements. My recent exposure to the scale and real-world impact of public sector work opened my eyes to an area I had not initially considered, but now find highly compelling.

I am also keen to gain experience in private equity and sovereign investment fund-related work. Given my background and the intensity of these engagements, I see them as a strong opportunity to accelerate my learning and build rigor early in my career.

Q: What advice would you give to students considering applying to the Qadat program?
A: My advice would be simple: go for it. The learning curve is steep, the exposure is exceptional, and the skills and experiences you gain stay with you well beyond the program.

The work involved assessing options at both the investment and development levels, with strong financial, operational, and long-term value considerations. I supported the team across research, structuring, and slide development, translating complex real estate and financial inputs into clear, decision-oriented insights for senior-level discussions.

Q: What work are you most proud of so far?
A: Taking ownership of a complex piece of analysis and seeing it meaningfully reflected in the final output. It required structuring ambiguous inputs, applying judgment rather than relying on obvious answers, and communicating conclusions clearly. Knowing that my work helped shape senior-level discussions was especially rewarding.

Q: What new skills or ways of working did you develop?
A: One of the most important shifts for me was always understanding the “why” behind every idea and output. It forced me to be more rigorous in my thinking, anticipate follow-up questions, and build work assuming it would be challenged. Over time, this changed how I approach problems and communicate, helping me be more confident, precise, and trusted in discussions.

Q: What has been a highlight of the program so far?
A: Seeing my contribution reflected in the final output was deeply motivating. Knowing that my work would reach senior leadership so early in my career made me feel trusted as part of the team.

Q: What are you most excited to work on next?
A: I am particularly excited about strategy and growth projects in the telecommunications and government sectors. I enjoy transformation-focused work involving technology enablement and evolving operating models, especially when the problems are not obvious. I want to continue contributing to initiatives with national or sector-wide impact while pushing myself intellectually.

Q: Let’s start with your journey. What were you doing before Strategy&, and what led you to the Qadat program?
A: Before joining Strategy&, I completed my bachelor’s degree in business analytics with a minor in marketing at the University of Denver. While in school, I got a taste of the consulting world through projects, case competitions, and an internship at a Saudi consulting firm, where I applied behavioral science to public-sector initiatives. That experience solidified my interest in making an impact in the region. I first learned about the Qadat program through my professional network, and what stood out was the chance to work on transformative projects with real-world benefits, right from the start.

Q: Once you joined, what kinds of projects did you dive into? And what impact are you seeing from your work?

Another centered on the privatization of government ministries — an effort that’s driving operational efficiency and encouraging innovation across the public sector. Knowing that our work plays a part in national transformation is both humbling and deeply motivating.

Q: What drives your passion for this work?
A: What inspires me most is the meaning behind it all. We’re not just solving business problems, we’re shaping the future of an entire region. I’ll never forget a moment when a client in the health sector told me, “If you ever see any announcement about this project online, just know that you helped make it happen.” That one sentence captured the essence of what we do. It reminded me that we’re building something lasting.

Q: You once described your days at Strategy& as “expect the unexpected.” Can you share what that means for you in practice?
A: That phrase really sums it up! At Strategy&, you’re constantly challenged and constantly surprised, in the best way. Early in my role as a business analyst, I found myself sitting in senior client meetings, representing the firm alongside partners and engaging directly with global vice presidents. Those moments pushed me beyond what I thought was possible at this stage of my career, and they’ve been instrumental in my development.

Q: What do you think drives you to consistently make a positive impact?
A: For me, it comes down to ownership. I approach each project with a mindset of accountability, always looking for ways to contribute meaningfully. Being surrounded by supportive teams and driven by a shared purpose makes it easier to give your best every day. We’re all aligned on creating lasting impact, and that shared mission fuels my motivation.
