  1. Task , I am Youssef, your follower from Egypt. Your character and the way you explain things really caught my attention. This is the first video I’ve watched on your channel and I’ve already subscribed. I’ll be very grateful for more content like this in the coming period.

    And you’re always welcome to visit Egypt anytime during your holidays — you’ll love discovering our ancient civilization and the newly opened Grand Egyptian Museum!

  2. Aaaaaand instant follow. Had at at “…because it happens to be what they learned in their MBA programs – back in the eighties…” 😂😂😂😂

  3. “Our goal is to have small steps to follow that even a small child can follow them and get the expected outcome”

    A common reality I live in is that specialised work IS hard and where do you draw the line between the problem being people under engaging and the instructions being over complicated?

  4. I have taught business management all my life in some of the best schools in India. But Layla is hands down better than me. I wish I had seen this when I was starting. I guess i could always start again.
