Shahriar Rahman has spent the last 25 years of his career solving strategic business problems by infusing simplicity in the executive decision process. As a strategist, he believes in collecting the dots before connecting them. He has been collecting dots from many different fields throughout his career - from dot-com startups to feature film production, from broadcasting to fintech, from animation to advertising. He has lead research, strategy and planning at several respected global agency networks, enabling new brands break ground as much as helping large global brands drive business growth. He currently heads a Strategy Central Limited, a strategy consulting agency out of Dhaka, Bangladesh; and has the privilege of advising over 200 local, regional and international brands every year. His work has helped build some of the most powerful brands in the region and enabled a host of organizations drive innovation in the way they conduct business. In his personal life Shahriar appreciates simple food, interesting stories, fine arts, and traveling off the beaten path.
