How can presenting yourself and solving problems open doors in leadership?
have uh going back to what you I mentioned before, you might have the best tools, the best product, but if you don't you just you just want to get into the door, right? You just want to open the door. Then you it's up to you to how you present yourself, how you can solve people's problems. So that's why I kind of talked a little bit I talk a little bit more about that now, like whether it's on my LinkedIn or my profiles, just to have that conversation starting. And yes, it's opened a lot of doors for me, don't get me wrong. But I'm just sort of bracing something that is unique to myself. That's why I always tell Everybody everybody has some unique gift. Don't hide it.
We're alive, ladies and gentlemen. You're once again welcome to the Kingdoms Podcast and Diary of a CFO. And today I've got with me a very special guest fighting out of the UAE. Make welcome, Lamine Abdul Malik. How are you, Lamid?

Amazing, amazing. My brother from another mother, my brother in another side of the world, you know. I am really, really pumped for this one. I'm pumped for this one, you know, having having shared what I say common grounds, right? Yeah, so it's amazing. But of course, you know, on the podcast I only say something that An attitude of gratitude is good attitude. And anytime a person shares a time with you, they're sharing their life with you. Of course the SR unit promotion life this time. So I love to give people their flowers while they're still alive. So please sit back while I read the carefully crafted introduction. So uh ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the Kingdom Sportcast and Diary of the CFO. Today's guest is not just a leader with an impressive title.
He is someone whose work sits at the intersection of peace, strategy, science, Africa's development, ethical innovation, and human impact. Lamine Abdumalik is a Nobel Peace Prize lawyer, transformation advisor, and keynote speaker who has spent more than 25 years. is helping governments, CEOs and institutions turn ambitious ideas into measurable results. His journey has taken him from the UK government to the International Atomic Energy Agency, from nuclear science for development to Africa wide transformation projects, from helping establish Zambia's first cancer hospital to launching global innovation initiatives around infectious disease, AI and sustainability. What makes Lamin's story powerful is not simply the Nobel Peace Prize.
It is what he did with the platform afterwards. He has built a body of work around strategic clarity. practical transformation and his impact framework. Which helps leaders move from intention to mastery, planning, action, connection, and transformation. At a time when leaders are overwhelmed by complexity, AI disruption, geopolitical shifts, and pressure to deliver meaningful impact, Lamin brings a rare perspective. He has seen transformation from inside governments, global institutions. competitions, boardrooms, startups and even the coffee shop he once built in Kitau. This conversation is going to be a master class on clarity, courage. credibility service and goodness systems that I'll leave you. Lamine, it is a real honor to welcome you to the podcast.
