awareness, underscoring that humanity is the greatest value we should strive for. Dr.

in the ongoing journey of creativity and progress.
The fourth session, The Business Called Me, delivered by business consultant Musa

strategies, and contrasted them with examples such as Nokia and Kodak, which
struggled due to outdated or weak strategic approaches.
Obeidat also highlighted the relevance of strategic thinking in personal life and

manage their resources, and balance priorities effectively. He further reinforced the
