Avoiding Cultural Missteps in the Middle East


Listen Later

In this episode of Muhami Matters, Chris Adams is joined by Taqua Malik, founder of Freedomvisory, to explore the intersection of law, culture, and business in the Middle East.


Taqua shares why cultural intelligence is financial armour, how silent mistakes can cost firms credibility and millions, and why reputation remains the true business currency in the GCC.


📌 Key takeaways:

  • Cultural nuances are often governed by law but not clearly defined
  • Silent mistakes can destroy professional relationships
  • Relationships and reputation come before transactions
  • Practical steps to avoid costly cultural missteps
