“ There are not many people you meet only once, and are compelled to write about. Ali is one of those people. I only met him as a member of an EQUIS Review Team in 2018 which he chaired. He was such a warm, accomplished and pragmatic person and he impressed me immensely in the few days I worked with him. I don't know the circumstances of his passing, but was shocked when only today (April 2021) I found out only by chance that he had passed away. Such a lovely person. My heart goes out to Ann and his family. ”
