Arsalan Khan — Speaker, Advisor, and Blogger on Business and Digital Transformation.
Most transformations don’t fail on technology. They fail on people: unclear strategy, unspoken politics, cultures that resist change, execution that stalls. I work on exactly those problems — and I’ve spent thirteen years writing about them.
What I do
- Speak — on what actually makes business and digital transformation stick inside organizations.
- Advise — leaders and teams pursuing a better version of themselves and their organizations.
- Write — Khan’s Blog: nearly 600 published essays and counting, plus a 115-edition LinkedIn newsletter of the same name.
Why I do it
When I was nine, my dad brought home our first computer: a cream-colored box, a small TV, a typewriter with no place to put the paper, a palm-sized device, and a tangle of wires. I was hooked.
That curiosity became a career spanning individual-contributor engineering to upper management, across small and large organizations in the computer industry. The credentials followed the experience:
- M.S., Information Systems Technology, summa cum laude — George Washington University
- Chief Information Officer (CIO) Certification — George Washington University
- Corporate Executive Leadership Certification — Georgetown University
- B.S., Computer Science, minors in Business Administration and Mathematics — Bishop’s University, Canada
The SPICE framework
That combination of experience and education gave me a lens I now use for everything: SPICE — Strategy, Politics, Innovation, Culture, Execution. It’s my framework for assessing organizations honestly and holistically: where they are today, where they want to be tomorrow, and what it will actually take to get there.
The blog’s thesis, in one line
Khan’s Blog exists to help individuals and organizations pursue a better version of themselves. If a post doesn’t serve that, it doesn’t get published.
I’m also a regular voice in the CXOTalk audience — my questions get read on air — because the best thinking about transformation happens in conversation, not in isolation.
