Mahan Tavakoli

Mahan Tavakoli is a strategic advisor to CEOs, boards, and executive teams, working with them on strategy, reinvention, leadership, organizational effectiveness, and the implications of AI for how organizations create value and operate.

Earlier in his career, Mahan spent more than 20 years with Dale Carnegie, where he led operations and strategy and helped drive international expansion across more than 90 countries.

Today, his work with senior leadership teams is complemented by more than 450 conversations on the Partnering Leadership podcast with CEOs, founders, researchers, futurists, and leading thinkers on strategy, organizations, leadership, and AI.

Across both his advisory work and the podcast, Mahan focuses on a central question: What is possible now that was not possible before, and what do organizations need to rethink to make it real?
