“I was introduced to Sherif Gayed by Intuit’s CEO, Sasan Goodarzi, with a mission in mind: to bring order, strategy, and innovation to the multiple businesses within our family office. From the very first meeting, Sherif arrived not only with a team of Intuit experts, but also with a sense of calm, curiosity, and focus. He took the time to truly listen and understand the complexities of our operations. What followed was months of detailed planning, collaboration, and iteration that ultimately led to the creation of what is now known as the Intuit Enterprise Suite (IES)—a powerful, comprehensive platform designed specifically to serve mid-sized to large businesses. What started as a concept two years ago has evolved into a game-changing solution, thanks in large part to Sherif’s vision, leadership, and relentless commitment. He didn’t just lead a team—he immersed himself in the work. Days, nights, weekends—whatever it took to ensure the system met the highest standards and the real-world needs of business owners like myself. As a former business owner, Sherif brings a rare empathy and perspective. He doesn’t just think like a consultant or a tech executive—he thinks like an entrepreneur. He understands the pain points, the opportunities, and the importance of automating as much as possible. Today, Sherif is leading the Intuit Lighthouse Program, and there is no one better suited for the role. He is a visionary, a strategist, and a problem-solver with unmatched process acumen. More importantly, he never gives up until every element of a solution is not only functional but beautifully orchestrated. I’m incredibly grateful that Mr. Goodarzi brought Sherif onto our team. Working with him has been transformative, and I have no doubt he’ll continue to elevate every business and project he touches.”
