IN SHORT

From civil engineering to founding Safira CSR and pioneering the concept of corporate social responsibility in Kuwait, Maha Ahmed Albaghli has been inspired by strong women to stand up for women’s empowerment and the promotion of entrepreneurship and sound business practices amongst Kuwaiti women and youth. Her work through Safira and BPW Kuwait has taught her the value of doing something you like and giving back—and the profound satisfaction that comes with it. “Embrace your passion. When you choose your career, work on something you love and believe in,” Maha says. “This is when you will really be rich.”
