TARAB AS A LEADER
My philosophy of success centers on continuous self-improvement and the relentless pursuit of growth, akin to an athlete preparing for the Olympics. I measure success by the impact I make in bettering myself daily, which is evident in my career progression and educational attainments while juggling family responsibilities.
Leadership is not managing and winning. Its participating and improving.
Great leaders focus on creating the conducive environment.
The future of leadership is focusing on building a culture which is beyong RO and short term successes.
When I think of a leader, I think of my Mother. She created the environment for me to succeed.
WE STOP GROWING WHEN WE STOP LEARNING.
