About the Firm

A practice built on
a specific belief.

Most organizations do not have a technology problem. They have a decision problem. Systems fail to inform decisions, data fails to reach the people who need it, and teams operate at a distance from the clarity they are capable of. We built this practice to close that gap.

The work we do, and why we do it this way.

Entezari Management Consulting was founded on the observation that the most common failure in consulting engagements is not the quality of the thinking. It is the distance between the recommendation and the people who have to act on it. We set out to build a practice where that distance is the first thing we address.

Our practice spans two deeply complementary foundations. Steven brings deep experience leading complex integrations, delivery organizations, and system architecture in enterprise environments, complemented by academic research in human-computer interaction and cognitive science focused on how people interpret information and make decisions under uncertainty. Christian brings extensive experience leading data and analytics functions across political, policy, and advocacy organizations, where she has guided high-stakes decision-making by transforming complex data into actionable insight for executive leadership.

Together, we cover the full arc from operational foundation to decision capability. We do not hand off work between disciplines; we integrate them from the first conversation, because the problems organizations face rarely respect those boundaries.

We serve mid-market companies navigating operational complexity, mission-driven organizations scaling with accountability, and political and government entities operating under time pressure and public scrutiny. Across all three segments, our ideal client is an organization where leadership recognizes that their challenges are rooted not in a lack of technology but in how their systems, data, and teams are connected.

Co-Founder

Steven Entezari

Steven brings deep experience leading complex integrations, delivery organizations, and system architecture in enterprise environments. As a former Client Services Director at Oracle, he led technical services teams and delivered high-impact solutions across large, multi-system implementations for organizations ranging from mid-market companies to large enterprises running platforms like Oracle, Blackbaud, and similar enterprise technology stacks.

His work is informed by an academic foundation in human-computer interaction and the intersection of computer science and cognitive science, with research focused on how individuals and teams interpret information, compare options, and make decisions under uncertainty. This is not a theoretical distinction; it shapes concrete design choices in every engagement.

Steven's consulting work is grounded in the belief that operational clarity is not a technical outcome. It is a human one. His engagements are diagnostic before they are prescriptive, and collaborative throughout.
