ABOUT THE EXECUTION GAP

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

The gap between vision and execution has no nationality.

THE EXECUTION GAP is where the leaders building Saudi Arabia's transformation — and global institutional finance — speak honestly about what execution costs. In credibility. In governance. In the decisions nobody sees being made.

Not a regional podcast.

A global conversation — hosted from the heart of Vision 2030.

Managing $960M With Zero Audit Findings:

FIFA’s Blueprint for Saudi Giga-Projects How do you manage nearly a billion dollars in revenue across 257,000 hospitality packages with zero audit findings?

In this episode of THE EXECUTION GAP, host Mohammed Younus (Business Growth Lead) sits down with Rami Khattar, the Former Financial Director for the FIFA World Cup Qatar 2022™.

Rami oversaw one of the world’s most complex financial operations under intense global scrutiny, achieving a flawless audit record with oversight from FIFA and Deloitte.

As Saudi Arabia scales unprecedented mega-projects like NEOM, Qiddiya, and the Red Sea, the financial stakes have never been higher.

Traditional project finance isn't enough; these giga-projects require the "mega-event" precision that Rami mastered in Qatar.

In this episode, we bridge the gap between billion-dollar vision and flawless execution:

The Zero-Discrepancy Framework: What financial controls actually work when there is zero margin for error?

ERP Migration Under Pressure: Why Rami led an AX to Dynamics 365 migration during the World Cup operations rather than waiting for a calm period.

Governance for Giga-Projects: Closing the gap between international standards and the reality of building multi-entity frameworks from scratch.

Real-Time Visibility: How to move beyond month-end reports to manage billion-dollar burn rates in real-time.

About The Execution Gap: The podcast where finance leaders who have managed billion-dollar operations share the brutal reality of what works—and what doesn’t—in the world of mega-projects and Vision 2030.

Most podcasts about Vision 2030 sound like press releases.

This one doesn't.

Episode 001 is live.

I asked Alex Malouf—Senior Director at a PIF-backed, 400,000-home mega-project—the question nobody asks:

"When Qiddiya's theme park opened December 31, 2025 - people had talked about it for YEARS. What made them finally believe?"

His answer: "Seeing is believing. You can't spin your way out of execution."

35 minutes.

Zero corporate filter.

Just the truth about what it takes to turn promises into proof.

One quote that stopped me:

"Reputation is built on 90% action and 10% talk." International investors don't believe announcements anymore. They believe delivery."

This is THE EXECUTION GAP.

Where Saudi mega-project insiders say what they're NOT supposed to say.
