Client Testimonials

As a participant on Global Strategy Interface’s Learning Journeys, I had the opportunity to experience first hand the power of networking with industry experts, to discover the importance of dialogue with colleagues on issues of mutual concern and finally to synthesize a world view that is applicable and relevant in improving my performance on a day to day basis. Dr. Watson has a program that is worth repeating.Dr. Adeeb AlAfeefi

Dr. Samy Watson managed large programs for the World Bank Group with global reach and successfully managed transformational change in his Departments. He brought a strong, systematic and pragmatic approach to Board deliberations. He eloquently promoted reforms, but was well aware that, to effect change, it is sometimes necessary to challenge the status quo. Thus, he adopted a direct and frank approach and encouraged others to bring the same candor to problem solving. Under his leadership, at a time of critical change for the World Bank Group, his Committee made significant progress in advancing internal governance reforms.

During the many months that Dr. Samy Watson consulted with senior physicians in the Department of Emergency Medicine, he provided an impressive knowledge of the international NGO and business communities, as well as a wealth of contacts. Dr. Watson’s guidance and recommendations definitively resulted in the Department of Emergency Medicine’s ability to effect an expansion of programs at the international level. Moreover, Dr. Watson made himself readily available, accommodating differing physicians’ schedules, returned assignments on a timely basis, and was always willing to go beyond what requirements or tasks were asked of him.
