Hamid Ali has spent more than 15 years building and leading the financial systems that large organizations depend on to close their books, plan, and report to regulators. He leads a team of twenty and has founded his own technology ventures, which has given him a close view of how systems, and people, grow by connecting and survive by knowing when to disconnect. The Continuity Principle takes that lesson beyond technology and into work, relationships, and resilience. He lives in San Antonio, Texas, with his family.
