IN SHORT

Sheikh Dr Hamed Bin Ahmed Al Hamed’s energy knows no bounds. Through his tireless work in both the private and public sectors, he consistently strives to contribute and set an example for younger generations in the UAE. As Chairman of Al Qudra Holding, his work focuses on strategic investments that promise continued sustainable development in the region’s most significant growth sectors. His job is seldom easy but, as he says, a leader must learn how to navigate complexity. “The higher your position, the more responsibility you have. You also have to take your time in these decisions, but unfortunately opportunity will not wait for you – and therein lies the fundamental challenge of being a leader.”
