Partners, McKinsey
Rana has “top notch ownership and commitment,” can “lead the process to get to the outcomes,” and takes initiative on how work will be handed over so it becomes useful beyond the project.
Rana Mallah
Economist by training, advisor and investor by trade, builder by instinct.
I do my best work when things are messy and the stakes are high. I spent two years trading post-pandemic markets at a hedge fund, then consulting taught me how to influence people. I move between the big picture and the detail, and am comfortable using first-principles over a playbook. Outside work, you'll find me at a rave, off travelling somewhere new, or out biking on the trails.
