Описание: Elias: The Ambitious Architect

Elias is a highly respected architect in the city, but his journey has been long and complex.

In his early career, Elias worked for a small construction firm for ten years. He was very ambitious, but he often felt limited by the conventional projects the company had undertaken . Before he left that job, he had saved every penny he could to finance his master’s degree abroad, a step which truly transformed his career.

Since returning, he has won several prestigious design awards and has founded his own sustainable architecture studio. The success of his recent "Green Tower" project has given him a global reputation, and he is now a leading voice in eco-friendly urban development.

However, his rigorous schedule has created a rift with his family. His daughter recently said, "Dad, you haven't come to any of my school plays this year." This situation is causing him considerable stress.

Elias knows he needs to change. If he had prioritized his family over work five years ago, his marriage wouldn't have ended , and his daughter would be much happier today. He constantly thinks: If I spent more time at home next year, I could repair my relationship with her.

If he continues on his current path, he will lose the most important things in his life, despite his professional triumph. Therefore, he has decided that by the end of the year, he will have delegated all minor tasks to his junior partners, ensuring he has weekends free.
