Leading a business is hard. Leading Family Business is even harder as one has to work with familial ties and legacy. That said, our guest on this episode had a completely different experience as the family business was handed over to him.
Meet Mr. Jaber Abdul Wahab, the group CEO of Bridgeway Group. Bridgeway Group is a transnational conglomerate operating in multitude industries. One may think that when you come from a business family, you naturally grow skills to learn how to run a business. In Jaber's case that was not true.
Surbhi Dedhia, host of #TMTLPodcast, had a meaningful conversation with Jaber as he shares:
- Why he defines himself as one and a half generation of family run business and not the second generation leadership?
- In the early days of taking over the business, when the decision literally meant identifying sharks and dolphins and then choosing to swim in the ocean accordingly.
- How he used his learning from Engineering to adapt and learn on the go.
- The challenges of growing a legacy business, expanding into new sectors and securing profitability.
- Pivots during the pandemic and the testing time for his leadership.
- What is his role as a leader to drive the brand Bridgeway within different companies.
- How he is building his own thought leadership internally and externally.
- Lastly, his message to all the budding entrepreneurs.
This episode is power-packed and covers vast array of topics.
