How Nadia is building a better working world

I am a strong believer in building an inclusive and diverse team – this reflects in not only the team that I have built, but also the additional people I counsel and mentor. It translates into a team that truly wants to work to bring the best solutions to our clients, collaborate across teams and jurisdictions bringing the best expertise while maintaining a work-life balance. As a working mum, it is also extremely important to me to ensure my team has the flexibility that works with their personal life while continuing to serve our clients to a very high standard.
