College of Business invited Ms. Halah Alshathri to be part of the Executive Lecture Series. Ms. Halah is the VP of Administration & Finance at Jazira Group.
The lecture titled “The Power of Personal Values to Unlock our Potential” was presented to the audience and College of Business students. It took place on Wednesday, September 11, 2024, in the Lecture Theatre (F) from 12:00 to 12:50 PM.
Ms. Halah commenced the lecture by highlighting the pivotal role that personal values play in shaping our professional and personal lives. It outlined how understanding and embracing our own core values can be a significant driver of motivation and direction.
A key takeaway from the lecture was the importance of recognizing and respecting the diversity of values within a team. Each member’s unique values contribute to a richer, more dynamic team environment. By acknowledging and valuing these differences, teams can leverage a broader range of perspectives and ideas, leading to more innovative solutions and improved problem-solving.
The impact of aligning personal values with professional practices extends beyond individual and team performance. It creates a positive effect on those around us. When people operate from a place of authenticity and integrity, it inspires trust and respect among colleagues, clients, and stakeholders. This positive energy and commitment to core values can lead to stronger professional relationships, better communication, and a more cohesive work environment. Ultimately, a value-driven approach not only enhances productivity but also contributes to a more harmonious and supportive workplace culture.
The lecture is part of College of Business Executive Lecture Series. It provides Alfaisal University students and guests from the business community the opportunity to learn from some of the country’s leading executives and leaders as they talk about their experiences. College of Business sponsors the weekly Executive Lecture Series to bridge the gap between the world of leadership and business education.
