From start to finish, Adi’s leadership cultivated a culture of collaboration and accountability, and the framework he developed became the cornerstone of our success. Thanks to his expertise, we achieved a seamless transformation and built a robust foundation for long-term growth and resilience. I highly recommend Adi for any high-stakes transformation.

I have had the great pleasure of working with Adi as part of an Enterprise Risk Management Group. I have found him a thought leader whose insights and knowledge have proven valuable to advancing our own program. I have attended many venues where Adi has spoken. His enthusiasm and presentation of complex topics have shown him to be an industry leader.
I have enjoyed working closely with Adi and collaborating on several business transformation projects. One of our most notable projects involved transitioning the services of a major business asset. Several complexities were involved as live transactions were to be moved from one futures exchange to another, along with the underlying commodities, which were to be moved to a different clearing house. Adi’s dedication to excellence, along with being an exceptional team leader, always ready to lend a helping hand, was instrumental in the success of this complex project. His ability to drive impactful change significantly contributed to a successful business transformation. I know that Adi’s skills and expertise will be a tremendous asset in any endeavor he undertakes, and I strongly recommend him for business strategy and transformation leadership.
I’ve known Adi for more than 10 years and have always been impressed by his clarity of thought and intellect. In the professional context, we had a complex acquisition that we were trying to integrate when previous management unexpectedly departed. Adi was available to jump in and take the lead on the integration, stabilizing the organization and delivering on all key outcomes without missing a beat. He did this through thoughtful culture work, talent development, and salvaging difficult partner relationships. His capability to identify key obstacles and priorities to deliver business outcomes was impressive. I recommend Adi highly for any strategic transformation.
I served on Board committees, in which capacity I heard regular reports from Adi. I cannot tell you how impressed I was with his grasp of the diverse risks that face the company, and his ability to put them in perspective and create a framework for following changes in the risk environment. Adi’s reports are clear and concise, and his breadth of knowledge is consistently impressive.
