Sultan Sabr founded Clarion Consulting after more than 15 years at the intersection of executive leadership, international business, and strategic advisory.
As a founder and CEO, Sultan built and led businesses across multiple industries, closing commercial deals across more than 10 international markets and managing teams at scale. That experience gave him a ground-level understanding of what it actually takes to run a business: the operational complexity, growth challenges, governance demands, negotiation dynamics, and the leadership decisions that determine whether a strategy succeeds and endures.
Real consulting starts with honest diagnosis. The clarity comes after, and so does the impact.
Alongside his executive career, Sultan served as an Assistant Professor and Head of the Business Department, where he invested in the next generation of Saudi business leaders through teaching, mentoring, and outreach. He holds an MBA from the Rotman School of Management at the University of Toronto and a Doctorate in Business Administration from Maastricht School of Management.
Beyond the classroom and boardroom, Sultan advised organizations through complex strategic transitions and contributed to research on leadership and organizational behavior in the Saudi context.
He established Clarion to make that extensive executive experience directly accessible to Saudi business leaders, and to deliver the kind of consulting that lives by Clarion’s values: integrity, excellence, honest counsel, and genuine care.
