EJ$4.17/min per minute(1)I Will Give You Advice on Working in the United Arab Emirates (UAE)Ethan James Appleby • San FranciscoCreated 11 years ago in OtherI lived in Abu Dhabi (near Dubai) in the United Arab Emirates (2008-2013) and still work there part-time. I worked across public and private sector and in a mix of environments including all expatriate to all Emirati. I was able to gain amazing perspective as to how to navigate the unique and complex work environments. The benefit I can provide is to give perspective to people considering moving to the UAE (both personal and professional) as to what to expect, how to thrive, and things to do.Ethan James Appleby San Francisco(1)

I reached out to Ethan about a Startup Weekend event and he was very helpful in providing advice and constraints pertaining to the concept. He was available same day, which I greatly appreciated. The conversation was rapid-fire and Ethan endeavored to be thorough, yet concise. I'd highly recommend his consultancy to anyone working out a proof of concept, developing a client facing business strategy, or curious about design thinking.
