The secret that shaped my actual status is the adoption of a Work Life Balance principle. As a working woman, I recognized that the perfect balance between work and home life is an attainable myth. For that, I’ve always adapted my attitude by acknowledging my feelings-positive, negative, and neutral- where they are all valid and need to be expressed. I lowered my expectations as “perfection does not exist and I was fully convinced that it would be okay if sometimes I was not as productive as I should be. You need to love yourself, be tolerant and self-compassionate with yourself and others, where mistakes should be within our appetite as we are simply humans. The work-life balance I mentioned is very delicate as you need to keep your eyes focused on different pillars at the same time. While talking about production and organization by structuring, planning and delegating, engagement in self-care is crucial. Said that definitely boundaries establishment is mandatory for not taking on extra burdens, also prioritizing relaxation or self-care activity, taking care of ones’ self, help function best in our roles. I tried so many times to involve my family and especially my children in some decision-making process, whereby I tried to seek their opinions on some working related matters as for me the view of an outsider could add up value despite his or her lack of knowledge in the field. Education is a mission; how can you explain that? Let’s first focus on every individual’s mission and ask this question “What is the mission of every creature on Earth?”. I guess the main goal here is to accept each other, love each other and live in harmony but the debatable question is “how is this achievable”? For us to succeed in reaching these stages we need to get to know more our partners, neighbors, colleagues and accept them as they are. See! I said “we need to know each other first then accept or similarities and differences”. Knowing means more knowledge and knowledge is acquired through education. Hence there is a huge universal mission through Education, as it would be through education that our knowledge is expanded and the more we know, the more we understand, accept, tolerate and love. We have many use cases for education as we see them in our everyday life. Every time we identify community clusters with low or lack of education, we deduce high rate of crimes, high illiteracy, community and social injustice, and low tolerance on accepting each other. This takes us to the conclusion that with Education, you can build better people, better societies and definitely better economies. What’s the importance of Management in society? The word ‘management’ is derived from the Latin word ‘Manus’ which means hands. Thus, management refers to handling a particular activity. Management refers to the process of setting certain pre-determined objectives and achieving them through optimum utilization of resources. According to Drucker, management is the dynamic life-giving element in every organization. It is the activating force that gets things done through people. Without management, an organization is merely a collection of men, machines, money and material. In its absence, the resources of production remain resources, and never become production. Management improves people’s standard of living by – (i) using scarce resources efficiently and turning out profits; (ii) ensuring the survival of the firm in the face of continued changes; (iii) exploiting new ideas for the benefit of society as a whole; and (iv) developing employee talents and capabilities at work as well as prompting them to display peak performance. The great economist, Schumpeter, referred to management, and entrepreneurs as the engine of growth. Drucker called management ‘the life blood’ of an enterprise. According to him, management is ‘the crucial factor in economic and social development’. Admittedly, firms can fail because of inadequate funds, improper marketing, incompetent product design, along with many other reasons. They often fail because the basic management functions are performed poorly or not at all. Management is ‘the single most critical social activity in connection with economic progress. Physical, financial and manpower resources are, by themselves, only passive agents – they must be effectively combined and coordinated through sound and effective management if a country is to experience a substantial level of economic growth and development. Tell us more about your experience as a member of different international research associations. John Maxell is an American author, speaker, who has written many books, primarily focusing on leadership. In his book of “the 21 irrefutable laws of leadership” tackled a specific law called “The Law of the Inner Circle” that stipulate A Leader’s Potential Is Determined by Those Closest to Him. This is exactly explained by my experience as a researcher and member in different international research associations. The law of inner circle stipulates the fact of stepping into a circle with people that resemble me from a technical and talent aspects. The fact of having myself inside those associations define 100% the law of inner circle. Nobody does anything great alone, nor do researchers succeed alone. Therefore, as a researcher attributing myself into associations where inner circle members could bring a Complementary Gift to the Table and Add Value to each other and positively Impact Other Inner Circle Members is an indicator of success by itself.
