About Hikmah Consulting

Strategic clarity. Values-driven leadership. Practical wisdom.

Hikmah Consulting is a boutique consultancy led by Ghaith Krayem, providing strategic and leadership support to organisations navigating change, growth, or complexity. We work across the not-for-profit, community, public, and values-based private sectors, offering grounded, high-impact consulting that aligns strategy with purpose.

 

Our clients come to us because they want to lead with integrity, strengthen their governance, or engage more meaningfully with the communities they serve. Whether it’s a national NGO refining its direction, a community organisation developing culturally responsive programs, or a leadership team seeking clarity, we bring insight, structure, and trusted guidance.

 

The word Hikmah, Arabic for “wisdom”, captures our approach. It’s not just about having knowledge, but applying it with care, insight, and an understanding of context. We help organisations turn their core values into actionable strategy ensuring that growth doesn’t come at the cost of identity, integrity, or trust.

 

At Hikmah, we understand that the passion and values that drive your work are also the very things that can feel most at risk during transformation. Our role is to ensure those foundations remain intact while you evolve to meet new challenges and opportunities.
