Supply Chain Management and Marketing
Chances are when you wake up in the morning, you start drafting a mental to-do list of what you want to accomplish during the day. So did I in 2012, when I decided what to do with my future: either work as usual for a renowned textile mill for the rest of my life or do something different which gives me joy and happiness.
Graduating in the field of Textiles gave me the leverage to work in textile industry by gaining the insights of this industry. But to achieve a pinnacle, I decided to join IBA Karachi for an MBA program which will act as a portal and would fill the gap in my career growth by teaching me about the corporate and business environment. IBA Karachi is the oldest and most-reputable business institute of Pakistan and has the best names amongst top-notch executives spreading the Alumni name. IBA provides multiple opportunities beyond the classrooms and the seminar rooms, and students have countless avenues to explore new interests and connect with others. Working for an organization where I would be provided with a challenging environment so that I could utilize my true potential by applying the theories and concepts learned during my MBA tenure.
One of the life passions is to travel a lot, and a dream job for me would be to be hired by a company to a designation which involves lots of travelling. I am very much a fanatic to witness different terrains and it would be a dream come true if I could be employed somewhere that gives me the opportunity to travel to different places. One of the secrets of success that I have belief in is “stay calm and give people the benefit of the doubt.” Getting frustrated and mad at others has never made me better at my job or anything in my life for that matter, nor has it made me think any more clearly about a difficult situation, regardless of the circumstances.
