“It was exciting to be part of a new idea in Kuwait, especially because it was so different from school. School is all about your grades, studies and exams. But Injaz is about how to succeed and do something.”

“Participating in Injaz has been the opportunity of a lifetime for my 18 year old daughter Fatima, and I have learned a lot too. I accompanied her on the trip to Argentina this year where we met people from all over the world.

I believe it is important to learn how to work with other people from different backgrounds.”

“Being a part of Injaz Kuwait has been great fun, especially the Company Program. It taught me a lot about how to work together in business and manage relationships with colleagues and customers. I’m sure I’ll be able to put these lessons to use in my future business career.”

“As the Centre Director I look to my experience from the Junior Achievement program in the United States to set up, adapt and develop the programs to fit the context here in Kuwait.

Many of our students will go onto join family businesses and it is rewarding to be part of a program that is nurturing the entrepreneurs of the future.”

“It is so fulfilling to know that the students are learning things that a text book cannot teach them. I cannot emphasize enough the value of learning teamwork as well as effective communication, hands-on leadership and decision-making skills, the power of negotiating, and satisfaction in accomplishment.”

“I’ve really enjoyed seeing how motivated the students are and seeing how keen they’ve been to put in their time and effort. Seeing the results has been the biggest reward, the excitement of learning and the realization of the students that they can achieve success through their own efforts. I’m really glad to be part of it.”
