“I joined Abdul Latif Jameel, back in 2001, and since then it has been an amazing story!   A wonderful opportunity to see how passion, dedication, the ultimate of  entrepreneurship, all combined together to deliver an amazing operating company that spans around the world.

More importantly as we celebrate the 75th anniversary of this wonderful organization we also celebrate our contribution to community.

I joined ALJ, and I came from a world that’s completely different.  A world that really knew nothing about the heart.  A world that focused on really driving numbers, driving results, but at Abdul Latif Jameel, I was able to see how that, is nicely coupled with the passion for people.  The passion for love in the workplace.

I have seen the two displayed so nicely, so beautifully, and frankly speaking I, I learned so much, about how you can really drive business results with a passion for standing with the smallest in the organization anytime they claim that they have a grievance of any kind.  I’ve learned here that actually, if you really want to drive results, if you really want to get growth, you must look at the hearts of the people.  Because it’s the people that delivered the results.

This is a place that has got more passion –  more passion for people, than people can ever imagine.”
