What is your ideal restaurant experience?
My ideal restaurant experience is defined by great company, genuine hospitality, and amazing food. Whether I sit at the bar or around a table with family and friends, attentive servers and a welcoming atmosphere always stand out. For me, it’s about connection, conversation, and food that brings people together.
What does "creating workplaces where people thrive" mean to you?
Thriving workplaces require connection, trust, and opportunity. When employees feel valued, supported, and engaged, they collaborate more, stay motivated, and produce their best work. Amaar helps organizations build high-performing, inclusive workplaces. He does this through effective HR strategies, compliance guidance, team development, and employee engagement initiatives.
