I am Rania Bejjani - After a long executive career as three times Chief Audit & Risk Executive across three global complex regulated businesses leading teams of 80 people across multiple countries and jurisdictions, I am now Global Board & Executive Advisor | Mentor | Speaker in Governance.Risk. Audit - linkedin.com/in/raniabejjani Based in London, originally from Lebanon and I travel a lot. In fact, I am a global citizen having lived in four countries and worked across all 5 continents. I am also trilingual. I am passionate about being authentic, stepping into the best version of ourselves, being of service as a leader and making a positive impact in the world. I believe: For leaders to stand out they must be authentic and real, take ownership for how they show up, build trust and connection, shape the perceptions of those who matter, create value by thinking strategically and delivering on their promises and importantly, they need to constantly reflect, learn and be curious to grow and succeed. This is why I created Impact Legacy with Rania - A podcast for leaders and future leaders who want to have greater meaning, influence and step up. It is a space for authentic conversations, sharing human stories and experiences to spark ideas, widen perspectives and hopefully inspire leaders to step up, infuse more authenticity and heart into their leadership and claim their impact and carve their future legacy.
