ABOUT DR. SAM ALFA
Philosopher. Educator. Accountant. Researcher. Author. Adviser.
Dr. Sam Alfa’s work sits at an unusual intersection. His background in philosophy explores what makes human existence meaningful; his accounting and administrative experience focuses on how organizations function; his work in education and leadership examines how people learn, relate and make decisions.
Across these disciplines runs one recurring conviction: individuals and institutions achieve more when independence is combined with purposeful interdependence. His books, research and advisory work explore how that principle applies to relationships, leadership, organisations and an increasingly technology-driven world.
Sam Alfa’s advisory work is grounded in more than 30 years of professional practice through Integral Services, Inc., serving businesses, nonprofit organisations and institutions across accounting, financial management, systems, business services and organisational support.
