Asalam alaikum everyone,
We are pleased to invite to our bi-weekly speaker series which will be tomorrow Inshaa Allah. Our next lecture will be presented by Dr. Adel and the topic of discussion is managing student finances, financial resources, and how to make money while you are studying. The lecture will be 30 minutes followed by a 15 minute Q&A session. So please bring any questions you have!
This talk will address the notion of entrepreneurship from cultural/religion
perspective and what it means for our daily lives. How to be productive, innovative,caring, leader and successful. Being entrepreneur does only mean to start a new business, but how to change the world around you. The first requirement for being an entrepreneur is to understand your purpose, call and ambitions. Then, plan and plan well.
