IN SHORT
Abdullah Saeed Al Darmaki is an Emirati who consistently goes above and beyond the call of duty. Having held several key leadership positions throughout his career, he has been a major force in both the public and private sectors, what he likes to call “a soldier behind the curtains.” His recipe to success is simple: “You have to believe in what it is you want to do, and you have to be transparent, modest and decent.”
