Young Leaders Conference’s Day 4 on Monday was dedicated to International Economic Leadership encouraging the youth to create value with social responsibility. The day started off with a keynote address on ‘Exemplary Leadership’ by Bank Alfalah Limited CEO Sirajuddin Aziz, who inspired the participants to gain confidence through internal inspiration and stay ahead of challenges by expressing one freely. He presented valuable learning points including how to take organisations from being average to a state of mastery.
Khurram Ali Pasha from Faysal Bank, Haroon Waheed from Unilever, Mazhar Valjee, Areva and Jehan Ara Pasha also addressed the youth in small groups on examining industries for opportunities and threats. Participants were able to discover multiple ways of transforming an idea into reality to benefit multitudes in society, taking ownership of their work and being able to utilise resources effectively.
Participants attended a keynote address on ‘Value of Social Enterprise’ by Saima Irtiza from the Acumen Fund. The session allowed the young audience to gain insights into the benefits of social enterprise and its contribution to long-term sustainability for Pakistan. During the dinner, a simulation titled ‘Extra Cooperation’ was conducted. The idea was for the participants to get a feel of what it is like to live life with the disabled.
