With a career spanning manufacturing, marketing, and commercial banking before launching his own firm nearly 30 years ago, Daniel brings a rare blend of practical operator experience and executive advisory depth. He's advised organizations across 30+ countries including Apple, Dell, Hilton, and Credit Suisse, taught at UCLA Extension for over 25 years, served as a visiting professor at the University of Huddersfield in the UK, authored four books including The Evolved Enterprise: A New Paradigm for Business Success, and holds the elite Certified Management Consultant (CMC) designation awarded to less than 1% of consultants worldwide.
