MELA 6’s last day
started off with an impassioned and inspirational talk by Mr. Mohammad Husain,
President & CEO of EQUATE.
His attitude and
dedication to addressing the needs and development of the next generation of
leaders was impressive and encouraging!
The session was
attended and enjoyed by special guests, MELA alumni from previous academies and
many others.
After a hefty lunch
and a session about the ‘Power of MELA’, it was the time for the GRADUATION…
but first, the speeches by Mr. John Pay from Shell Kuwait and Mr. Qusai Al Amer
from Kuwait Oil Company.
The great KOC team
that facilitated and supported MELA’s academy to reach its full potential.
Hana giving her
heartfelt thoughts about what this all means to her…
Dhari being showered

Cindy basks in the
glow of the limelight with Ms. Meisa Batayneh (MELA Chair) and Michael Kouly

Suleiman: “What Can I
say? You have to try it to believe it!”
Mrs. Neveen El Tahri,
new board director, participated throughout the ceremony and was glad to award
her protégé, Yasmine, with the graduation certificate.
Joy, laughter and friends
forever!!
