Original episode description
**Podcast: Glass Room with Wael Al-Fakharani, Investor and CEO of Edenred UAE, with over 35 years of experience in technology both internationally and locally.** After working at Google, IBM, Oracle, Valu, Incorta, and Careem, Wael shared three key insights: success alone isn't true success, management doesn't come with certificates, and taking risks is safer than playing it safe! This episode is a fatherly discussion about success at work, embracing change, reconciling with mistakes, and taming your competitive nature if you're someone who is fiercely determined to succeed. It's an episode that emphasizes the importance of reconciling with errors and encourages people to advise you and point out your mistakes without fear of you or feeling embarrassed about it. The episode also highlights the significance and magic of relationships, identifying your strengths and areas of excellence, and changing your mindset about work and office hours. It discusses management and how to see people as human beings, leaving a lasting impact as a leader, while understanding that you are not necessarily their inspiration, nor the smartest or best, yet still making them miss your presence. Additionally, it covers personal and financial investment, its types, essential methods, and key advice. Listen to the episode and share with us the most valuable human advice you've received regarding work and your career! **00:00 Introduction** **3:44 Your feelings in the Glass Room** **4:44 Summary of 35 years of work and your goal in one sentence** **13:24 Feedback culture: Tell people to point out your mistakes** **21:48 Understanding the meaning of success at work** **39:07 Tips for choosing the right job for you** **1:00:34 Foundations of a successful mindset: identifying your strengths and valuing relationships** **1:14:04 Choosing a career path: accumulating money, skills, or promotions?** **1:26:04 On personal investment** **1:37:39 On public investment** **1:47:12 Have you thought about retirement?** A podcast by @ziadaladdin877 Powered by @paragondevelopments708 [https://zaap.bio/glassroom](https://zaap.bio/glassroom) [YouTube](https://youtube.com/@GLASSROOMPodcast) [Instagram](https://instagram.com/glassroompodcast) [TikTok](https://tiktok.com/@glassroompodcast) [Facebook](https://facebook.com/glassroompodcast) [X](https://x.com/GLASSROOM__) [LinkedIn](https://www.linkedin.com/company/GLASROOMPodcast) #GLASSROOM #GLASSROOMPodcast #جلاس_روم #بودكاست_جلاس_روم Business management, time management, job management, jobs, relationships, workplace relationships, work, work environment, investment, personal investment, soft skills, leadership, leader, manager, MBA, business management certificate, management certifications, PMP, CFA, CMA, CCMP, CSM, CBAP, SHRM-CP, Project Management Professional, Chartered Financial Analyst, Certified Management Accountant, Certified Change Management Professional, Certified ScrumMaster, Certified Business Analysis Professional, SHRM - Certified Professional, Master of Business Administration, project management, financial management, investor, angel investor, self-development, personal growth, success at work, success mindset, how to choose your job, how to choose your field, how to maintain your job, how to be a successful manager, how to win over those around you, employee management, success in work, knowing your skills, choosing your specialization, valuing relationships, building relationships, choosing a career, Ahmed Shaheen, Hossam Heikal, Shark Tank, Ihab Muslim, Ahmed Abu Zeid, Mo Joudat, Mohamed Joudat.
