Prioritising Intentions, Transcending Clocks & Switching Calendars [EP37]

Описание: I spoke with Mohammed Faris, one of the world's leading faith-based productivity experts, about what it actually means to be productive, achieving sincerity, the tyranny of clocks and watches, the restoration of the lunar calendar, overcoming regrets, remembering death... and a little about the future of this podcast!

Mohammed is founder of The Productive Muslim Company - a faith-based training and coaching company with over a million followers online - and the author of best-selling books “The Productive Muslim: Where Faith Meets Productivity” and "The Barakah Effect: More With Less".

He has delivered seminars and workshops in over 15 countries, featured on international media as well as the TEDx stage, and spoken at organisations such as Google, American Airlines, Salesforce, Accenture and the Islamic Development Bank Group.

ABOUT ME:
I’m Iqbal. I think, write and speak about how to lead a truly God-centred life. I explore how faith can be the source of human flourishing for individuals and societies in the 21st century. In particular, I'm passionate about the topics of prayer, giving and leadership. All my reflections and teachings are rooted in revelation and communicated in plain English.

I was previously an investment banker (2006-11) and non-profit leader (CEO of National Zakat Foundation 2012-21. Cofounder and Trustee of Funders In Good 2021-24). I graduated in Economics and Management from Cambridge University and I have an MSc in Voluntary Sector Management from Bayes Business School.
