One of Akbar's greatest strengths is his exceptional ability to motivate and empower individuals. He possesses a unique talent for unlocking one's full potential and instilling confidence.

I'm very fortunate to have worked with Akbar and am amazed by his ability to make friends with anyone, a skill he uses to full effect in his role at EZY. He is ever eager to learn and apply his knowledge, to share with partners for the betterment of their organisations.
