HAJAR AS A LEADER

Hajar's leadership philosophy revolves around fostering a culture of continuous learning, inclusive growth, and sustainable development. She believes in the power of collective efforts and is dedicated to nurturing leadership that embraces these values. Her success is defined by her ability to influence and implement change that transcends traditional business metrics, focusing instead on creating lasting impact through innovation, advocacy, and strategic collaborations.

Leadership is not a position.

Great Leaders have the ability to get extraordinary achievement from ordinary people.

The future of leadership is designed to lead, require leaders who are global citizens and able to work in a multicultural environment.

When I think of a leader, I think of as a light orchestra's ear-catching melody.
