Mehdi Kadaoui
Brussels, Belgium


Mehdi Kadaoui is a senior IT and transformation leader with over 17 years of international experience delivering complex enterprise programs across Europe, the Middle East, and North America. His career spans global logistics, SaaS, telecom, and public sector environments, where he has consistently bridged the gap between strategy and execution to drive sustainable digital outcomes.
As a former director and transformation strategist for industry leaders such as DHL, Atlas Copco, Efficy, and Saudi Post Logistics, Mehdi has led ERP modernization, AI/analytics enablement, cloud-native migrations, and IT operating model redesigns. He is known for unifying cross-functional teams (IT, Data, Finance, CX) under shared governance models that enable real-time intelligence, compliance-by-design, and post–go-live value continuity.
Mehdi holds an Engineer’s Degree in Computer Science and a Master’s in Big Data & Systems Integration. He is PMP-certified, a Certified Scrum Product Owner (CSPO), and holds cybersecurity and digital transformation credentials from ISC2 and Stanford University.

A contributing writer for CIO.com, Mehdi publishes widely on structural drift, transformation governance, and post-go-live failure modes. He is the author of the “From Intent to Outcome” series—an independent body of work exploring semantic governance, business observability, and transformation integrity frameworks. His published frameworks (Project Semantix, Outcome Observability, Structural Agile) offer new ways to govern meaning, behavior, and value beyond traditional delivery models.
Mehdi is trilingual (French, English, Arabic), based in Brussels, and actively advises global enterprises on how to deliver not just systems, but strategic intent with integrity.
