ANAN AS A LEADER
Success is relative. Titles and possessions aren't the key measures. My success will likely be measured after I die; I'm striving to be impactful daily through my research, voice, and how I interact with others. I'm 'work in progress.'
Leadership is not authority.
Great Leaders are the most humane people.
The future of leadership is to create a healthy ecosystem where new leaders will emerge.
When I think of a leader, I think of impact.
ANAN SPENT HER LIFE TO DRIVE CHANGE SHE WANTED TO SEE IN THE WORLD, AND SHE MANAGED TO DO SO.

ANAN ON THE CHALLENGES OF NEW LEADERSHIP
For Anan, aligning with organizational culture while maintaining personal values, beliefs, and principles requires high levels of responsibility and commitment, which can be challenging for new leaders.
SINCE I STARTED MY CAREER IN 2009, I FOUGHT PEOPLE WHO CALLED ME AMBITIOUS, EGOCENTRIC, AND HARD-HEADED, AND REALIZED THAT 'ME' IS SPECIAL.
