Companies I’ve Helped
Hello – I’m Shaiq.
For over a decade, I’ve worked across sectors, leading global operations and building business systems that drive clarity, scale, and precision.
I started this site and newsletter, to help entrepreneurs, business operators, and policymakers find strategic clarity and learn how power, protocols, and profits intersect and move together — how geopolitics shape disruptive technologies and policies, how technology transforms business, and why the sharpest leaders think in systems, not silos.
Decoding Power, Protocols, and Profits
The three areas I track to help leaders see the whole playing field and make smarter decisions in a complex world.
Business Systems
I discuss the structures, systems, and ideas that help organizations capture profitable opportunities and scale without losing control.
Emerging Tech
I analyze disruptive technologies and the regulatory shifts reshaping how businesses and industries operate, and how we live and work.
Geopolitics & Strategy
I study and interpret geopolitical shifts and conflicts to understand who controls what, why it matters, and how it affects global markets.
