HALA AS A LEADER
Success is about positively impacting those around you and achieving business KPIs while maintaining a human-centric approach.
Leadership is not being on the top of an organization.
Great Leaders listen.
The future of leadership is a successful, human, happy environment.
When I think of a leader, I think of a wise teacher.
EVERYONE CAN CONTRIBUTE TO BETTER LEADERSHIP IN THEIR LIFE.

HALA ON WORK-LIFE INTEGRATION
Hala believes that a genuine passion for her work makes balancing professional and personal life much easier. She emphasizes the importance of enjoying one's job to avoid the dread of returning to work, which can overshadow personal time. When faced with stress or negativity, Hala takes a pause to gain perspective by engaging in activities like sports, spending time with her dogs, or talking to a friend. This approach helps her manage negative feelings effectively and maintain a positive outlook.
HALA ON EMPOWERING THE NEXT GENERATION
Hala is committed to supporting the development of women leaders in the workplace. She actively participates in creating regulations and initiatives that promote gender equality and reduce inequality. She encourages young women to learn from their leaders, support each other, and persist through challenges. Hala's message is one of encouragement and perseverance, urging women to address challenges directly and not to give up when faced with failures. Her personal journey from the arts to a leadership role in marketing and communications serves as an inspiration to many.
