Bio
Kirk-Dale E. McDowall-Rose
Without hesitation one of the most professional consultants I’ve had the good fortunate to work with in my career. Mounir was hired to troubleshoot a problem project. His delivery, conflict resolution and problem solving skills are truly world-class; in every paradigm he over delivered. The most valuable aspect of Mounir’s portfolio is however his ethics and drive to do the right thing in the interests of the best outcome. In this regard he not only over delivered but he was a delight to work with. Having worked alongside Mounir for many difficult months, I am proud to not only count him as a colleague but also a friend. If you are looking for a transformational leader with a keen intellect, passion, energy and a hint of comedy – Mounir is your man! Without any doubt I would hire him again.

Mounir is a pleasure to know professionally and also personally, he is a true gentleman and scholar. I first met him in his professional capacity as Executive Consultant, Organization and Management at the King Faisal Specialist Hospital & Research Centre (KFSH&RC) in Riyadh, when he was initiating a 'Project Management Centre of Excellence' and was interviewing prospective specialized consulting companies. During my association with Mounir, he demonstrated knowledge and dynamism in applying the latest Project Management best practices across the organization, and later introduced a hospital wide project management capacity building training program in order for the hospital to execute a large number of mission critical strategic projects. Mounir is a master strategist who is sensitive to the Change Management issues arising out of business process improvement in large complex multi-cultural regional/global organizations. I found Mounir to be a thought leader in his field and it was clear how his vision had positively impacted the business operations at KFSH&RC, even long after his departure. Mounir is an asset to any organization seeking an efficient path to real, quantifiable improvements in operations. He has my highest regard."

I have konwn Mr. Mounir for only one year but it was good enough for me to see his excellent contribution to the hospital. I have been working in King Faisal Hospital for 20 years and I have seen many consultants in the hospital but Mr. Mounir was an outstanding and unique consultant who added real value to the committee or groups he joins. Besides working as a senior consultant to the hospital management, he also worked as the director of the amalgamation project of Riyadh and Jeddah branches. Mounir has clear mind and vision and courage for the change. I believe that our hospital will always need someone like Mounir in order to alway be in the top of healthcare organizations in the region.
