Dr. Jomaa’s journey from a PhD in vehicle dynamics and motorsports engineering to leadership training offers unique perspectives on building high-performance teams and scaling businesses.
Dr. Jomaa introduces the 4C Model – Consolidation, Clarity, Consistency, and Collaboration – a framework that parallels the precision of motorsports to create and sustain high-performing teams. From understanding non-linear thinking in decision-making to balancing the roles of technician, entrepreneur, and manager, this conversation is packed with actionable insights for scaling businesses.
