I know Sherry from INSEAD where we worked together on a string of entrepreneurial projects. After INSEAD he invited me to set-up a new company in Brussels and from then on he has been fully engaged in a number of highly successful start-up endevours. He is a relentless self-starter stilled in finding great talent and create a vision to motivate people around. He is constantly looking to learn and develop himself and no challenge is too great to be conquered. He is a self-motivated entrepreneur with many projects in the pipeline - will one of them be yours?

Shehryar is a self-motivated and ambitious individual with an entrepreneurial mindset. What I appreciate the most about him is his ability to analyze problems on an abstract level, ask the right questions and come up with out-of-the-box creative solutions. He exhibits a high level of emotional intelligence and excellent communication skills. He is open-minded, social, well traveled and feels most comfortable in a multicultural environment.

Under my supervision at Unisys, Shehryar was responsible for managing a $1.5 million project. He confidently dealt with the client's executive management (CEO, CFO, CIO) in a very open and extremely professional way. Thanks to his leadership attitude, Unisys' business footprint at the customer expanded considerably.

Shehryar led a team of 5 INSEAD MBAs that worked on the strategy for the Okuri Fund as part of their Private Equity elective.

He is a hard-working, focused and determined individual. He is the type of person who knows what he can do and does what he says. If he doesn't know how to get the work done first hand, he will know someone who does! He follows up and ensures the highest quality results. I can recommend Shehryar without reservation! I've had a great experience working with him.
