Emirati speakers motivate Pak expats
dubai — Three motivational speakers, including two Emirati speakers, addressed a gathering over 250 Pakistani expats — mostly chartered accountants from the Institute of Chartered Accountants of Pakistan (ICAP) and Continued Professional Development (CPD) — to inspire them to become effective leaders.
Emirati speaker Lt-Col Mohammed Murad, who served the Dubai Police for 20 years before retiring and becoming an entrepreneur, said: “Three things I believe that will help you commence and sustain your ‘new beginnings’ on the right note are passion, practice and perseverance.
“Teamwork is important. We may not like the person we are working with, but we must focus on the common goal. It is important to find commonalities and surpass our differences.”
Fatima Alloghani, HR professional and public speaker who currently heads the expo 2020 HR team, started the speech with her personal story and enlightened people on how building their skills will not only make one feel stronger but would also change the way people look at you.
Moazzam Ahmad Khan, Ambassador of Pakistan to the UAE who was the chief guest of the event titled ‘New Beginnings’, said: “Pakistan and Pakistanis have a great potential in being the best in the world. The finance fraternity present here will surely play an integral role in the development and progress of Pakistan and the UAE.”
