PIONEERING THE FUTURE OF LEADERSHIP – 2025
Editor’s Desk
Being a successful business owner is complex; it requires a lot of effort, commitment, and resolve. However, it is possible. If you look around, you may find innumerable instances of people who battled to make their businesses successful. Being in the right frame of mind is just as crucial; you must be able to think creatively and outside the box to solve problems. This distinguishes successful companies from those that fail.
The focus of "Pioneering the Future of Leadership – 2025" within The Excellence CEO Edition is on up-and-coming companies and individuals who are changing the world. We've selected some of the firms and businesspeople who are genuinely moving the needle in terms of inspiration and empowerment. Their success stories and the paths they took to get there are incredibly motivating. We can all benefit from their way of thinking and unconventional ideas.
Henry Ford, for instance, is the most well-known businessman in the automobile sector. He dramatically transformed the auto industry and ensured that his tale would go down in history as one of the most motivating examples of achievement. He sought financing from a businessman after starting his enterprise, but the latter ultimately disbanded it, leaving him with nothing. However, he was committed to finishing what he had begun and sought excellence. He tried again to convince the same investor to give him another chance, but he was unsuccessful. He persisted despite these repeated failures and finally unveiled the Model A in 1904, never looking back.
Although each of these people had a unique story to tell, they all have one thing in common: they were able to think creatively and find answers to issues that no one else at the time was considering. This is the difference between success and failure.
The key to success is having the vision to look beyond what is immediately in front of you. It involves taking chances, thinking outside the box, and being determined to see things through. This is the focus of the companies and divisions highlighted in this issue of Excellence-CEO. This edition is for you if you're seeking inspiration to launch your business or just some basic advice on how to succeed.
We hope that reading about these remarkable individuals and their businesses will motivate you to realize your aspirations. And keep in mind that if they could achieve it, so can you. So get yourself a lovely hot cup of tea, relax, and take a sip.

Dr. Andy Khawaja
ANDY KHAWAJA AND THE ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE DEFENSE PLATFORM
In 2020, Dr. Andy Khawaja launched the Artificial Intelligence Defense Platform (AIDP), driven by a vision to leverage artificial intelligence in groundbreaking ways to protect, innovate, and transform lives. AIDP’s mission is clear: “to create a safer world through the responsible use of AI technology,” Andy explains. With roots in technology and a strong sense of purpose, he wanted to make AI a force for good in fields ranging from national security to everyday life.
For Andy, the journey toward founding AIDP was years in the making. He built a successful career in fintech, leading a global digital payments company that allowed people to trade online safely and securely. During the pandemic, he saw how technology could help people survive and thrive, allowing them to buy essential goods from the safety of their homes. But Andy’s vision extended far beyond fintech; he began exploring the potential of artificial intelligence. “AI is the future,” he says simply. “It will drive us forward and help us solve problems we once thought impossible.”
THE BIRTH OF AIDP AND PROJECT ISABELLA
From the very start, AIDP was built to push the boundaries of AI technology. Its flagship project, ISABELLA, is a revolutionary AI program with nearly limitless potential. Designed as an open-source, Wi-Fi-connected platform, ISABELLA can connect to the internet, observe, learn, and act. Unlike a human mind, which is limited in capacity and memory, ISABELLA can store vast amounts of data, learn from it, and respond intelligently. “Imagine having a tool that can read, retain, and process information from multiple sources, in different languages, and use that knowledge in real-time,” Andy shares. “That’s the power of ISABELLA.”
ISABELLA has potential applications in various fields, including labor, education, and military defense. Andy describes it as “AI technology driving the future.” It’s designed to process multi-lingual data from resources like encyclopedias, intelligence reports, and the internet, offering insights and capabilities that could assist human operations. ISABELLA’s development is fueled by Andy’s vision for AI to expand what humans are capable of, enabling faster, safer, and more informed decision-making.
ADVANCEMENT
IN ALL INDUSTRIES
Andy and his team aim to expand their technology into all essential aspects of life. AIDP has established several departments, each dedicated to innovating in different sectors. One area focuses on child development, integrating AI to support the advancement of youth education and growth. “The youth are our future,” Andy says, “and we want to devote efforts to ensuring their success.”
Another fascinating branch of AIDP is their AI research focused on sustainable life on Mars. This project aligns with Andy’s goal of advancing human potential and preserving future generations. Beyond this, AIDP is also working on AI-driven solutions to improve mental health, workplace morale, and physical health. “AI has a place in every field,” Andy explains. “We’re finding ways to bring its benefits to as many areas of life as possible.”
A COMMITMENT TO CONSTANT INNOVATION
Innovation isn’t a choice for Andy; it’s a way of life. “While others see the impossible, I see the possible,” he says confidently. This mindset has been the foundation of AIDP’s strategy. Andy believes that smart companies lead innovation and stay ahead of the curve. He is passionate about using AI to improve efficiency, streamline processes, and save lives. “Every time we create a new department, we’re taking steps to improve living conditions and empower people,” he says.
AIDP’s ability to pivot and adapt to emerging needs has been key to its growth. They’re continually adding new technology, which improves industries and enhances quality of life across the board. For Andy, this commitment to progress is personal. “Innovation is part of my life. I’ll never stop creating new things that improve life,” he shares.
CHALLENGES AND AMBITIONS
AIDP’s path forward is filled with both challenges and ambitions. As an innovator, Andy sees doubt as one of the biggest obstacles to overcome. “One of our biggest challenges is that not everyone understands our goals or believes in what we can accomplish,” he admits. However, he remains resolute in believing that AIDP’s work will ultimately improve lives. “People once thought the wheel, the lightbulb, and the internet were impossible,” he reflects. “Now, they’re part of everyday life. AI will be no different.”
Andy’s vision for AIDP is global and long-term. Over the next three to five years, he aims to expand the company, bringing its technology to new sectors and regions A primary focus is building AI solutions that reduce costs and increase capabilities, enabling workers to focus on more meaningful tasks while enhancing productivity “Jobs will be done ten times faster and more accurately,” Andy explains, “while also protecting and improving the quality of life for the workforce.”
EMPOWERING THE TEAM
As a leader, Andy values creativity and encourages his team to think outside the box. He believes that innovation requires openmindedness and the willingness to take risks. “Great ideas don’t just come from one person,” he says. “They come from a team inspired and empowered to contribute.” At AIDP, collaboration is a cornerstone of the company culture, and every team member is encouraged to bring their unique perspective.
Andy has built AIDP on a foundation of passion, persistence, and dedication. “You have to believe in what you’re doing and work hard,” he advises aspiring entrepreneurs. For him, success isn’t just about reaching personal goals; it’s about helping others achieve theirs He views his role as a CEO and a motivator who inspires his team to push boundaries and strive for excellence.
AI FOR THE BETTERMENT OF SOCIETY
AIDP’s mission goes beyond profit and technology; it’s about using AI to create a better, more sustainable world. This commitment is evident in projects that focus on improving mental health, physical wellness, and social development. Andy believes that AI can change lives in profound ways, and he’s determined to make that happen. “We’re creating technology that makes a real difference,” he says.
One of the most inspiring aspects of AIDP’s work is its dedication to supporting future generations. Andy focuses on using AI to help children reach their full potential, with one department solely dedicated to child development. He’s also passionate about environmental sustainability, with research underway to explore AI’s role in creating sustainable life on Mars. For Andy, this is just the beginning. “We’re constantly expanding and growing, looking for new ways to make life better,” he shares.
THE ROAD AHEAD
Looking to the future, Andy’s goals for AIDP are ambitious yet grounded in a deep sense of responsibility. He wants AIDP to become a global leader in AI technology, providing tools that enhance productivity, protect lives, and improve well-being. His plans include expanding the company’s reach, developing new AI applications, and continuing to invest in research that benefits humanity. “I live for my work because I believe in it,” he says. “The difference we make is the legacy we leave behind.”
In the next few years, AIDP will focus on expanding its operations and overcoming regulatory and market barriers. Andy knows there will be challenges but is committed to persevering. His dedication to AIDP’s mission has inspired his team and others in the tech industry who see the potential of AI to shape the future. “My goal is to do everything I can to create a better tomorrow,” he says.
ADVICE FOR FUTURE LEADERS
Andy has straightforward advice for those aspiring to make a difference: “Work from the heart and don’t give up.” He believes true leaders inspire others, lead by example, and work tirelessly toward their goals. “If you believe in what you’re doing, others will believe in it too,” he adds. His success is proof that a strong vision, combined with relentless effort, can lead to remarkable achievements.
Andy encourages future entrepreneurs to be persistent and resilient. He believes that challenges are part of the journey and that overcoming them builds strength and character. “You’re the visionary of your dreams,” he says. “If you put in the work, you can make them a reality.”
A LEGACY OF INNOVATION
As AIDP moves forward, Andy Khawaja’s commitment to innovation, integrity, and social responsibility remains at the company's core. Through projects like ISABELLA and departments focused on child development, mental health, and environmental sustainability, AIDP is poised to make a lasting impact. Andy’s work is more than just a career; it’s a lifelong mission to improve the world through technology.
With a passion for AI and an unshakable belief in its potential, Andy Khawaja and AIDP are setting the stage for a future where artificial intelligence serves humanity. As he continues to build, innovate, and inspire, Andy is focused on one goal: creating a safer, smarter world. And for him, that’s only the beginning.
Dr. Hany
Saqr
Leading with Heart and Vision
In global humanitarian efforts, few stories shine as brightly as that of Dr Hany Saqr, CEO - Of life for Relief and Development. From his early days as a passionate medical student in Egypt to his current role leading one of the most impactful humanitarian organizations, Dr Saqr’s journey shows his dedication, compassion, and visionary leadership. His life and work illustrate how one person ’ s determination can make a significant difference on a global scale.
How His Journey Begins
Dr. Hany Saqr
Dr. Hany Saqr had a passion for science and a deep desire to help others since childhood. Growing up in Egypt, he pursued a medical degree, laying a solid foundation in the medical sciences.
I was always fascinated by the human body and the potential to heal,
Dr. Saqr recalls.
Medicine felt like the perfect blend of science and service.
His thirst for knowledge and a desire to expand his horizons made him move to the United States to further his education.
At Ohio State University (OSU), he got a Master's and Ph.D. in medical sciences as a scientist and clinical assistant professor. This period was transformative.
“Combining teaching and research allowed me to merge theoretical knowledge with practical application,”
Dr. Saqr explains. A relentless pursuit of excellence characterised his work at OSU. These years were not just about academic achievements but about developing a holistic approach to healthcare and leadership
Stepping into Humanitarian Leadership Leading with Empathy, Ethics, and Equity
Saqr’s extensive experience with nonprofits was crucial to his transition into humanitarian leadership. Over two decades, he founded and served on the boards of
over 20 non-profits. This deep understanding of the sector’s complexities was crucial when he joined Life for Relief and Development (LIFE) as a board member in 2015. His strategic vision and hands-on approach soon saw him rise to CEO in 2017, a role in which he has significantly expanded LIFE's reach and impact
“Stepping into the CEO role was both a challenge and an opportunity,” Dr. Saqr says. “It was an opportunity to apply everything I had learned and to lead an organisation that truly makes a difference.”
Under his leadership, LIFE expanded its reach to 55 countries, overcoming numerous legal and political barriers to deliver aid.
“Navigating these challenges requires persistent advocacy and building strong local partnerships,” he explains “It’s about showing the world that our mission transcends politics and borders.”
Saqr's leadership is firmly rooted in empathy, ethics, and equity. He ensures that aid reaches all in need, regardless of race, religion, or cultural background
“Human suffering knows no boundaries,” he says. “Our aid must reflect that understanding.” Transparency and accountability are the cornerstones of his decision-making. “We have to be transparent with our donors and accountable to the communities we serve, ” Dr. Saqr asserts. “It’s about building trust and maintaining integrity.” His unwavering commitment to these principles reassures us of his leadership.
His belief in community empowerment and fostering strategic partnerships has been instrumental in delivering effective and sustainable aid. “Empowering communities means listening to their needs and supporting their strengths,” he says “It’s not about imposing solutions but about working together for sustainable change.”
Setting LIFE Apart
LIFE's ability to operate in diverse and challenging environments sets it apart Its rapid response capabilities, innovative technologies, and strategic partnerships enable timely and effective aid delivery. “Our approach is to be both agile and strategic,” Dr. Saqr explains. “We need to respond quickly to emergencies but also think long-term about development.”
The community-centric approach ensures that initiatives are customized to the specific needs of the people they serve, providing immediate relief and fostering long-term development.
We are committed to providing holistic support,” he says. “From emergency relief to education and healthcare, we aim to address the full spectrum of human needs.
Comprehensive Humanitarian Services
LIFE offers a wide range of services, including emergency food and medical aid, disaster relief, community development, and educational support Their efforts in conflict zones like Gaza are particularly noteworthy Over the past five months, LIFE has distributed over 100,000 meals and loaves of bread.
“In areas like Gaza, the need is immense, and the challenges are great, But we are committed to being there and making a difference.”
Their seasonal support during Ramadan, Udhiyah, Thanksgiving, and Christmas highlights their dedication to meeting diverse cultural needs. “It’s about more than just providing aid. It’s about connecting with people on a human level,” Dr. Saqr says. “We recognise the importance of cultural and religious observances and strive to respect and support those traditions.”
The past two years have seen remarkable growth for LIFE, with operations expanding across all 50 states in the U S and new offices opening in Yemen, Kenya, Malaysia, and Somalia. Dr. Saqr envisions continued expansion, with plans for Lebanon, the U.K., Bosnia, and Ukraine. Our vision is to extend our reach and maximise our impact,” he says. “We want to help as many people as possible, wherever they are.
A commitment to adaptability and innovation drives this expansion. “We have to be flexible and innovative in our approach,” Dr. Saqr explains. Every country and every community has unique needs and challenges. Our job is to understand those needs and respond effectively.”
LIFE's ongoing projects in Gaza are a testament to their commitment to making a significant impact despite immense challenges Providing daily hot meals and freshly baked bread, LIFE has distributed over 100,000 meals and loaves of bread in the past five months This tangible impact of their work inspires hope and motivates us to continue supporting their cause
Clean water access has improved with the restoration of the Khan Yunis water station, and over 5 million liters of clean water have been distributed through solar-powered filtration stations “Access to clean water is a fundamental human right,” he says. “We are committed to ensuring that right is upheld.”
Medical support includes delivering 18 truckloads of essential supplies to hospitals and distributing hygiene kits to families LIFE's efforts to address the shelter crisis involve providing 2,000 winterized tents
These initiatives showcase our ability to navigate complex environments and deliver essential aid,” Dr. Saqr notes. “It’s about meeting immediate needs while working towards long-term solutions.
Dr. Saqr draws inspiration from the resilience of the people he serves and the dedication of his colleagues.
“Their commitment to our mission motivates me to push the boundaries of what we can achieve. Seeing their strength and determination inspires me every day.” This dedication of his colleagues is not just inspiring, but also motivates us to contribute to their cause
Dr. Saqr and LIFE have received numerous accolades for their impactful work.
Tycoon Success Magazine honoured him as one of the Top 10 Most Admired Emergency Services Providers of 2022.
USAID has recognised LIFE, which was voted one of the Top Ten Humanitarian Organizations in the United States by Impactful Ninja and received a 99% rating by Charity Navigator.
Navigating legal and political barriers has been one of the most formidable challenges. Dr. Saqr's approach is marked by persistent advocacy and building strong local partnerships “Ensuring transparency and accountability within LIFE is crucial. We must be transparent with our donors and accountable to the communities we serve. ”
Rigorous monitoring and regular audits uphold these principles, solidifying LIFE's reputation as a trustworthy organization. “These measures enhance our credibility and ensure that resources are used efficiently. It’s about building trust and maintaining integrity.”
Mike Mclain
Mike Mclain, Pioneer Of The Renowned Limitless Program –Powered
By Biofunctional Health
MMichael’s thirst for knowledge led him to earn advanced degrees from Baylor University, which equipped him with an MHA & MBA. He further sharpened his strategic insight with another master’s degree from Air Command and Staff College. Recognition as a Fellow of the American College of Healthcare Executives underscored his dedication to excellence in healthcare
A year ago, Michael embarked on a new chapter, joining BioFunctional Health Solutions (BHS). He leads strategic partnerships and spearheads innovation as the head of the pioneering Limitless direct-to-consumer line Based on his military background and his relentless passion for healthcare, Michael is on a mission to advance precision medicine globally.
About BioFunctional Health’s
Direct-to-Consumer Launch
BioFunctional Health Solutions (BHS) was founded with the mission to revolutionize healthcare by harnessing the best of global science and technology. They aim to directly empower consumers by optimizing both brain and body functions, helping them to achieve their fullest potential essentially becoming limitless
The inspiration behind starting the Limitless line came from Bradley Cooper’s character in the 2011 film "Limitless," where a single pill unlocks the full potential of the human mind. While the concept of a single pill exists only in fiction, the aspiration to achieve heightened cognitive and physical performance is real through diagnostic testing, advanced healthcare modalities, and a comprehensive coaching program. The concept of the Limitless line at BHS was sparked by this idea. Still, it was further fueled by personal experiences and meeting Brent and Robin Kruel, who demonstrated the possibilities of achieving a 'limitless' state
Their approach, which holistically addressed Micheal’s acute head trauma and general health challenges, propelled him into a state of enhanced cognition and physical well-being and proved to him that becoming 'limitless' is attainable with the right program. According to Micheal:
This realization was a turning point, compelling me to transition from the Air Force and dedicate myself to making this possibility a reality for others through BHS's Limitless program.
Their initiative stands as a testament to the potential of precision medicine to unlock its greatest capabilities, offering a structured, evidence-based path to achieving what once seemed possible only in cinema.
Deciding to leave the Air Force after 14 years, with just six years away from retirement, was my biggest risk…
This leap was driven by his conviction in the potential of BHS’s precision medicine and the ability to make a tangible difference in people's lives t's a risk that continues to define I their journey and fuels their commitment to transforming healthcare globally.
About BioFunctional Products and Services
At BHS, they believe in making healthcare personal. Since 2007, they've been leaders in employer health programs, and now, they're expanding to help even more people. Their MSK optimization program is a great example. It's changed lives by easing musculoskeletal pain with its special blend of 3D mobility assessments, Functional Optimization Massage, and shockwave treatments. This program has an impressive 78% success rate!
But they're not stopping there. BHS is thrilled about its upcoming direct-to-consumer line, launching in Q4 2024, offered through exclusive partnerships with local, top-tier gyms.
It's all about you tailored to your needs, built on everything they've learned This program isn't just a quick fix; it's a comprehensive, evidence-based approach to health that addresses the unique biology of each individual. In his interview, Michael explained:
With the Q4 2024 launch of the directto-consumer line, we ’ re not just introducing new services; we ’ re ushering in a new era of personalized healthcare.
So, what makes BHS Special?
Their dedication to your health They partner with top clinics like Riordan for cancer care and have established a robust TPA with Vault, ensuring that their services are not only innovative but backed by the highest standards of care Whether you ' re with an employer or on your own, their goal is simple: to provide personalized, precision healthcare solutions that empower people to live their healthiest lives.
A Company Driven by a Clear Vision
“Our strategic vision is bold yet simple: preserve and advance medicine globally The introduction of our direct-to-consumer Limitle line through the gym affiliate program is more than a milestone; it’s a manifestation of our dedication to this transformation.”
By connecting their team to this vision, they're not just working towards a goal; they're pioneering a movement towards accessible, personalized healthcare.
“preserving and advancing medicine globally”
Future Goals: Personalized Healthcare Accessible to All
Looking ahead, the company recognizes the pivotal moment facing the healthcare industry. Outdated models, excessive costs, and the demand for more personalized care have brought the healthcare industry to a crossroads As Michael puts it,
"The Limitless line symbolizes our response to these challenges, paving the way for a future of healthcare that's both innovative and inclusive."
In the next three to five years, BHS has ambitious goals. They aim to solidify their position as leaders in personalized healthcare through their employer programs and the Limitless line, while also expanding their reach nationally. Michael emphasizes,
"Our primary goal is to revolutionize how individuals approach their health, shifting away from traditional paradigms towards a model where everyone has access to personalized, precision healthcare solutions."
A key part of this expansion involves the introduction of regional support hubs. These hubs will not only bolster existing programs but also support the pioneering direct-to-consumer Limitless line. They will serve as centers for innovation, and offer the in-person component for brain and body optimization, and client support, making comprehensive healthcare solutions more accessible than ever before Michael concludes,
"By staying committed to our goals and constantly innovating, we can help individuals achieve outcomes that they would otherwise find to be impossible.”
Michael’s Take on His Leadership Style, Risks in His Career
The biggest strength of the company lies in the leadership team's creativity, innovation, competence, and genuine humility, fostering a supportive and trustworthy environment Traits like empathy and vulnerability play a pivotal role in leadership, fostering a culture of trust and openness where respectful debate is encouraged. Preserving the existing culture within BHS is paramount, with recruitment policies favoring cultural alignment over mere competence
Client-centric Agility: Michael McLain's Perspective
"Client-centric agility is crucial to our operations, recognizing that our business success hinges on adapting to client needs and advancements in medicine," states Michael McLain.
He highlights the importance of guiding clients to realize that their initial wants may not align with their deeper needs. This discernment underlies the selectivity of their Limitless 180x program, which is currently limited to 50 members per year, ensuring clients are genuinely committed to transformative change and supported along the way. Michael emphasizes the fundamental role of establishing trust in this journey; clients are more open to adjusting behaviors when they believe in our commitment to their best interests Effective customer service and meeting clients where they are is pivotal in empowering them to reach their full potential.
Michael's Advice to Aspiring Business Leaders
"Embrace the journey towards realizing your fullest potential. The talents, fervor, and determination you possess are gifts from God, meant to be discovered, embraced, and pursued with vigor," advises Michael.
He emphasizes the importance of a profound commitment to his faith in Jesus Christ and focuses every morning on spiritual, physical, mental, and professional growth. This transformation has made him a better spouse, parent, leader, friend, son, athlete, executive, innovator, creator, etc Michael encourages aspiring leaders to concentrate on what they can influence, accept what they cannot, and never be passive in the face of challenges.
