Building an Exceptional Career Path with Mustafa Ammar

In today's episode we’ll focus on what we do most during the day, which is “work” and how to always have the energy and motivation to do a great work. We'll discuss how to identify if you're stuck in a hamster wheel and what holds you back from career development.

I am thrilled to introduce you to my amazing guest Mustafa Ammar from Egypt who lived on five continents and speaks seven languages! His passions have led him around the world, and he sees himself, just like me, as a global citizen :-)

He helps his clients make their next career a perfect one. In other words, Mustafa is specialized in making your “work” not seem like work anymore. Work should always be fulfilling, and we should always be able to add value to the company with joy. If your everyday work drains your energy and makes you unhappy, then your chances for success are lower.

Mustafa has also gone through several career transformations, and he can give you the tools to go through your next career development step easily and with less stress. He was successful in several fields including pharmacy, global diplomacy working for 10 years as a diplomat in China, in Malawi, at the United Nations. Further, he worked in a multinational bank, developing their business as an Operations Investment Specialist.

Mustafa's company, "The Passion MBA," has developed a step-by-step blueprint to help individuals aspiring for a career change. Their guidance ensures that you can navigate your career transformation while minimizing high risks.

I am thrilled to introduce you to this amazing guest, Mustafa :-)
