I'm Vahab Hasiri. The person you'll actually work with.
Operations advisor, former COO and author of The Rubicon Leader. I work alone, so when you work with Consilium Dynamics, you work directly with me.
I've sat in the operating seat, not beside it.
I've spent my career inside companies, measured on what changed, not on hours logged.
As COO of Aron Groups, I grew the company from $5M to $19.2M and 250 people across several countries in two years. Before that, at a sixty-person trading company, I built sales, customer success and retention from nothing, along with the processes and the team behind them. Most recently I was co-founder and COO of X Securities, which I left in June 2026 to run Consilium Dynamics full time.
Along the way I noticed the same thing again and again: the companies that kept growing were the ones where decisions stopped routing through one person. That's the work I do now, and it's why I wrote The Rubicon Leader.

Four things I believe.
Structure beats effort
Founders who become the bottleneck aren't lazy or disorganised. They're running a company that was designed around them and never redesigned.
The test is absence
A system that only works while you're in the room isn't a system. It's you. The honest proof is what happens when you step away.
I leave, the systems stay
If the business needs me to keep running, I built the wrong thing. Every engagement is designed to end.
The leader changes too
A new structure won't survive a leader who keeps taking the work back. The shift from operator to owner is part of the job.

What the seat produced.
My operating experience is in financial services and trading. The problems were the ones every service business hits at the same size, and that's what transfers.
