MARIYA AS A LEADER
Success is about personal fulfillment and impact, emphasizing a balanced approach to professional and personal life. I see success as a continuous journey of growth, improvement, and achieving milestones.
Leadership is not exerting control or authority for personal gain or dominance, instead, it is about serving others.
Great leaders inspire, empower, and elevate those around them.
The future of leadership is inclusive, adaptive, and collaborative.
When I think of a leader, I think of someone who inspires others through their actions, words, and vision.
ADAPTABILITY IS ESSENTIAL FOR NAVIGATING UNCERTAINTY AND COMPLEXITY WITH AGILITY AND RESILIENCE.
