One could describe NPC’s former DDG as a born leader. As a young boy, Ahmad Berek’s leadership skills were apparent. He was often elected for leadership positions in primary and secondary schools, such as class monitor and captain for his school’s sports team. Ahmad Berek enjoyed taking up leadership positions, not because of the power but for the reward of leading others towards excellence. Interacting with people and developing them are a source of joy for him which is why he finds that being people-oriented is the first and foremost quality to have as a leader. “If you find yourself adverse to people, you cannot become a leader,” he advises. “A leader’s role is to develop and empower people and you cannot do that if your first thoughts about people is disdain.”
