Dr. George Farag has spent more than two decades at the intersection of American diplomacy, global mobility, U.S. visa systems, and crisis operations. He managed the movement of people through some of the world's most complex operating environments, from post-invasion Iraq and the 2006 Lebanon evacuation to regional consular crisis operations across U.S. diplomatic missions throughout the Middle East.
He founded SLS Mobility Management to bridge diplomatic insight, global mobility operations, and operational execution in complex international environments.
We work on a limited number of engagements at a time to ensure each mandate receives senior-level attention, discretion, and operational focus. If your organization requires support navigating complex visa systems, global mobility operations, major international events, or regional continuity challenges, we would like to hear from you.
