How Yousef is building a better working world
“The real estate sector is a key economic driver of growth across the Middle East. When I help my clients tackle challenges they’re facing, I know we’re helping a sector that is having a knock-on effect on so many other sectors such as retail, tourism, leisure and entertainment and having a tangible and positive impact on citizens. Having that impact on society and helping my clients' businesses work better is a passion of mine.”
