Executive positioning, private market intelligence and a practical campaign for senior leaders targeting the UAE and Saudi Arabia. Four advisory sessions, weekly check-ins and concrete assets built around your agreed direction.
We assess your target, current approach and actual traction. The difficulty may sit in direction, positioning, access, follow-up or conversations that do not progress. We agree the priorities, establish your strongest evidence and prepare finished CV and LinkedIn copy around your target.
The problem this solves: an unclear target or presentation of your experience can make it difficult for others to assess your relevance. Diagnosis identifies the actual issue before prescribing work.
We research organisations in your agreed markets, relevant business developments, individual stakeholders and credible routes of approach. Sources, dates, interpretation and uncertainty remain visible.
A target may fit your experience without a current demand signal. A verified expansion or leadership change may justify investigation without establishing a vacancy. Confirmed requirements are recorded separately.
The problem this solves: an unfocused target list makes it difficult to decide where to invest your time and what to do next.
We prepare at least 10 individually tailored messages in total, including initial approaches and follow-ups. A live tracker keeps actions and responses organised. Relevant priority conversations receive preparation and debrief support during the engagement.
You review and normally send your own outreach and update activity at least weekly. We guide the strategy and review what happens. Introductions, replies, interviews and employment outcomes are not guaranteed.
The problem this solves: research creates no value until it becomes focused action and real market feedback.
Build a clearer executive position, identify relevant organisations and approach the market with direction.
Your proposal sets out the scope, deliverables and support agreed for your engagement.
Diagnosis establishes the priority. Positioning, research and outreach then progress around your agreed target and the market’s response, rather than a fixed promise that interviews begin in a particular week.
Daniel Sterenzon leads diagnosis, positioning, strategic decisions and advisory sessions. Specialist and AI-assisted research preparation receives human review before recommendations reach you.
The term is 60 calendar days. Your written Continuation Plan sets out priorities and actions for the next 30–60 days.
A recruiter or executive search firm works on an employer’s hiring requirement and assesses candidates against that role. A relevant search consultant can be a useful part of your campaign.
We start with your target and traction. The work covers direction, positioning, company and stakeholder research, tailored approaches and campaign review. You are the advisory client.
Ask who the provider represents, what you will receive, who sends approaches and how fees work. Neither route guarantees an employer’s decision. Recruiters, Talent Acquisition teams, leaders and referrals can all be relevant.
You receive one finished master CV in editable Word and matching PDF. LinkedIn copy covers the headline, About section and current and relevant previous Experience descriptions agreed during positioning, delivered in Word for you to publish. Account management, ongoing posts and additional role-specific CV versions are outside the standard rewrite.
The 60-calendar-day engagement includes four 60-minute advisory sessions covering diagnosis, positioning, campaign review and continuation. Weekly progress check-ins take place by email, WhatsApp or an alternative call of up to 15 minutes. Research and agreed deliverables progress between sessions.
Provide accurate evidence, review the work, normally send your own approaches and update activity at least weekly. We agree a realistic campaign around your target and availability. The amount of time depends on the outreach and conversations you undertake.
The CV and LinkedIn copy each include two reasonable revision rounds. Each other complete agreed written deliverable also includes two rounds, based on consolidated feedback within the agreed direction. Corrections to our errors or omissions do not use a round. Feedback is requested within five business days; standard in-scope revisions are returned within five business days after complete feedback and necessary inputs, unless another date is agreed. Silence is not approval.
We research organisations and stakeholders, assess credible routes and prepare your approaches. A strategic-fit target, a verified business signal and a confirmed requirement are different evidence positions. Introductions, direct contact details, vacancies and responses are not promised. You normally send your own outreach.
A weekly progress check-in is included. Routine client email and WhatsApp messages receive a response within two business days. Working hours are 9 AM–6 PM Dubai time, Monday–Friday excluding UAE public holidays. Messages outside those hours are treated as received at the next business day’s start. Research and substantial work have agreed delivery dates.
We trace meaningful claims to sources and distinguish facts from interpretation. Before priority outreach, material roles and signals more than 30 days old are rechecked, or sooner when events move quickly. Material changes to active priorities prompt a refresh during the engagement. Daily monitoring and a weekly rebuild of the full map are not included.
We discuss fees after assessing direction and scope. The structure includes an upfront fee and a contingent balance. Your proposal and agreement specify the amounts, payment timing and exact contingent conditions before you proceed.
Day 1 is confirmed in writing after signature, cleared required upfront payment and essential onboarding inputs, unless expressly agreed otherwise. The term is 60 calendar days. Completion requires the term to end and agreed final deliverables, including the written Continuation Plan, to be delivered, accounting for agreed extensions. Further advisory support requires a separate arrangement.
Minor refinements are part of the work. A materially different role, market, seniority or positioning requires a scope review. If essential inputs are delayed, we discuss the affected work and dates under your agreement; a delay does not automatically extend every part of the service.
We agree confidentiality boundaries at the start, including organisations and people to avoid. You control your approaches. Client identities and private material are not used as public proof without permission.
No. Sterenzon provides executive advisory, not recruitment, placement or employer representation. Introductions, conversations, interviews, offers, employment, salary and visa outcomes are not guaranteed. The applicable signed agreement governs your scope and commercial terms.
Share your target role, markets and current traction. Daniel will assess whether the advisory fits the problem you need to solve.
