Leila Entezam
International Strategic Alliance Consulting
Published: November 01, 2008
You could call Leila Entezam an international concierge. Her Orange County-based firm, International Strategic Alliance Consulting, focuses on fostering business relationships between the United States and the Middle East. Specifically, Entezam’s efforts are concentrated on business development, brand leveraging and cultural consulting.
Age and marital status: 32 and single
Biggest decision you’re contemplating: Oddly, the first thing that comes to mind is “Hmm ... what should I have for lunch today?”
Favorite ethnic food: I love all food, and I especially love trying different kinds. Experiencing the dishes of different ethnicities is such a celebration of diversity to me.
Strangest, funniest or favorite vacation moment: My entire Egypt trip with my mom last year – we laughed the whole time. It was such a blessed experience. (Second place would be getting stuck with a snake in Africa – while in the bathroom. No one in the camp believed me.)
Favorite subject in high school: Biology. Wait. Chemistry. Spanish class?
Biggest pet peeve: The lack of commitment and follow-through prevalent in my generation
Most productive time of day: When you work with international clients who are 12 hours ahead, you’d better be productive at all times of the day.
Something you can’t live without: My faith
First job: Teacher’s aid for a biology class in undergraduate school. It was great. I used to take my dog to class with me.
