Karim Idriss – HR Management Consultant

I’m a management consultant with 14 years of experience helping organizations translate business goals into people‑powered results. After earning my MBA from IE Business School in Madrid and a Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering from the American University of Beirut, I discovered a passion for the human side of performance—where strategy, structure, and culture converge to create sustainable impact.

What I Do
I specialize in HR transformation, guiding clients through every stage of the talent journey:

• Organizational‑structure design – aligning reporting lines and spans of control to strategy.
• Strategic workforce planning – forecasting skills and capacity requirements in dynamic markets.
• HR strategy & operating‑model design – defining the vision, governance, and service‑delivery model for modern HR.
• Policies & procedures – building clear, compliant frameworks that balance consistency and agility.
• Job evaluation & rewards architecture – creating equitable, performance‑driven grading and compensation structures.
• Talent frameworks – crafting competency models, career paths, and development programs that unlock potential.

How I Work
My engineering background shapes a data‑driven, systems‑thinking approach, while my MBA informs the commercial acumen behind every people decision. I partner closely with executive teams to:

• Diagnose root‑cause issues through rigorous analysis and stakeholder dialogue.
• Design practical, future‑ready solutions that fit each organization’s context.
• Deliver change through clear roadmaps, capability building, and hands‑on implementation.
