I empower others to feel comfortable being experimental in order to find and test new solutions to any problem.

Aly Massoud - Consultant

Aly comes from a background of 10+ years working at startups and has always loved working at smaller organizations where he can focus on improving processes and the customer experience. He's most comfortable being experimental, building scalable solutions, and thinking big picture, and does it all with a design-thinking approach, which he describes to his parents as "arts and crafts for business."

He's a strong proponent of the Yvon Chouinard philosophy of business: if you focus on building a great product and treating your people well you'll be successful; or as he famously puts it, "Let my people go surfing." In his experience in the startup world, Aly has developed tools and processes and leveraged analytics to create double digit growth in ARR and NPS for the teams he's worked with. He credits his success to always putting people first and connecting on a personal level with those he works with.
