Daanish Ellias

As founder of World of Steel, Daanish has a continual quest and drive for helping businesses grow in the steel using industry. With over 30 years of strategic business management and leadership experience, he is known as a catalyst for change and understands the challenges CEO and Marketing managers face in this extremely volatile environment.. Not surprisingly you will often find him feeding his hunger for life long learning with a good book and latte! This blog is reflection of his passion for the steel industry. He promises to intrigue, challenge and sometimes even question (and praise as well) Government policies for the long term effect they can have on the user industry.
