Farooq Hasan

27 years in management consulting and strategic planning. I started with urban infrastructure projects — SEZ feasibility studies, smart city bids — and gradually moved into corporate strategy consulting. I have advised companies across real estate, telecom, and financial services on their growth blueprints and organisational design. At Jobdha, I lead the Consulting & Strategy practice, reviewing reports on management consultants, strategy advisors, strategic planners, and corporate advisory roles. My interest is in how India's consulting market is decentralising — it is no longer just Mumbai and Delhi. I write Urdu poetry when the mood strikes, and I walk heritage routes in old cities whenever I travel.
