يُعد الدكتور عبدالعزيز صقر الغامدي، من الأسماء التي تركت أثراً واضحاً في مسارات العمل الأكاديمي والأمني العربي، عبر تجربة مهنية وفكرية اتسمت بالاتزان، والوعي بدور العلم في بناء الإنسان والمجتمع.
امتدت اهتماماته إلى ما هو أبعد من تخصصه الجغرافي، إذ وظّف معرفته في قراءة المكان لفهم أعمق للإنسان وتحولاته، مؤمناً بأن الأمن يبدأ من الوعي، وأن التعليم لا يقتصر على تقديم المعرفة، بل يشمل تحفيز التفكير وتحمل المسؤولية.
طوال مسيرته، لم يكن صوته صاخباً، لكنه كان واضحاً. قاد الحوارات بهدوء، وصاغ القرارات بعناية، واتخذ من التأمل طريقاً لصناعة الأثر، بعيداً عن العجلة أو الاستعراض. وحين تَسلَّم قيادة جامعة نايف العربية للعلوم الأمنية، اعتبر الموقع مسؤوليةً معرفيةً ومؤسسيةً، لا مجرد منصب. فشهدت الجامعة في عهده تحولات تطويرية ملموسة، ورسّخت حضورها العلمي عربياً ودولياً.
اليوم، تستند تجربته إلى رصيد من العمل والوعي، يتكئ عليه ليس استعراضاً، بل تأملاً. يقرأ ماضيه كما يقرأ الجغرافي خرائطه؛ بدقة، واهتمام، وإدراك لحجم التحولات.
عبدالعزيز الغامدي.. مثالٌ للقيادة المتّزنة التي تجمع بين التخصص والفكر، وبين الفعل الهادئ والأثر البعيد.

Dr. Abdulaziz Saqr Al-Ghamdi is one of the names that has left a clear impact on the paths of academic and security work in the Arab world, through a professional and intellectual experience characterized by balance and awareness of the role of knowledge in building individuals and society.
His interests extended beyond his geographical specialization, as he employed his knowledge in reading places for a deeper understanding of human beings and their transformations, believing that security begins with awareness, and that education is not limited to providing knowledge but also includes stimulating thinking and taking responsibility.
Throughout his career, his voice was not loud, but it was clear. He led discussions calmly, crafted decisions carefully, and took contemplation as a path to making an impact, away from haste or showmanship. When he took on the leadership of the Naif Arab University for Security Sciences, he considered the position a cognitive and institutional responsibility, not just a title. During his tenure, the university witnessed tangible developmental transformations and solidified its scientific presence both regionally and internationally.
Today, his experience is based on a legacy of work and awareness, which he relies on not for show, but for reflection. He reads his past as a geographer reads his maps; with precision, interest, and an understanding of the magnitude of transformations.
Abdulaziz Al-Ghamdi is an example of balanced leadership that combines specialization and thought, between calm action and distant impact.
