I first attended @wef in 2020, shortly after I assumed leadership of @MajidAlFuttaim’s shopping malls business. Two years later at #WEF22, my experience has been even more fulfilling. What changed? (1/2)

[Shireen El Khatib @KhatibShireen]

I am also elated to have spent so much time with my fellow #MAFers. Working in a hybrid set-up doesn’t give us a lot of face time, so it was great to take in the best the world has to offer with them.(3/3)

[Shireen El Khatib @KhatibShireen]

As we round off @WEF, I’m thankful for all the beaming sessions, discussions and learnings that I acquired through the journey in #Davos. (1/3)

[Majid Al Futtaim @MajidAlFuttaim]

"I believe that the experiential dimension is vital to ensure that physical spaces remain relevant and continue to attract visitors," @KhatibShireen reflects on the future of retail and shares some of her key takeaways on #ClimateChange and #GenderParity at #WEF22.

[Shireen El Khatib @KhatibShireen]

Today, our world is at a crossroads of change and as we scramble out of a global pandemic, an impending energy transition lies in waiting. This is why it’s so important for industry leaders like @MajidAlFuttaim to be at forefront of the global conversation. (2/3)

[Shireen El Khatib @KhatibShireen]

Great to see the rousing discussions and camaraderie between my fellow #MAFers at the

A customer experience company like @MajidAlFuttaim must never be too far from platforms such as @WEF, where the global narrative is formed. Listen here: (1/2) https://t.co/yyCgnyruBj

Resilience is all about putting people first, be it your employees or your customers. Which is exactly why retailers should seek equitable measures to protect customers from #inflation. (2/2)

Another excellent @MajidAlFuttaim Roundtable episode from @Joe_abiakl, @ZiadmChalhoub and @haniweiss at #WEF22. A very conclusive case for corporate #resilience and a deep dive into the challenges faced by the #retail sector. (1/2)

For the past six years, @MajidAlFuttaim has pursued an ambitious #sustainability strategy focused on spreading awareness in the communities we operate in, reducing our #CarbonFootprint within them, and leveraging #DigitalTransformation to reshape the consumer experience. (3/3)

[Shireen El Khatib @KhatibShireen]

Attended my first panel at #WEFF22 today. The “Climate Action Starts at Home” discussion was quite engaging, it was great to contribute to this vital conversation and absorb the refreshing perspectives of my fellow panellists. (1/3)

[Shireen El Khatib @KhatibShireen]

Small actions in unison have the power to change the bigger picture. Using less water at home and cutting down on single-use plastics are two simple ways consumers can set an example and nudge their community in a greener direction. (2/3)

[Shireen El Khatib @KhatibShireen]

With our partners at @wef, in this report we've taken a deep dive into the unique socio-economic challenges that separate MENAP nations, the immense potential of the region and cooperative steps we can take to tap into it. Find out more: https://t.co/eneeWzLwoL (2/2)

[Shireen El Khatib @KhatibShireen]

8.5% of the world population lives here, yet the MENAP region’s share of the global GDP is just 3.4%. This contrast between opportunity and ground reality formed the premise of @MajidAlFuttaim’s ‘The Time is Now: A Perspective on #EconomicIntegration in MENAP’ report. (1/2)

[Shireen El Khatib @KhatibShireen]

But implementing these lifestyle changes seems like a daunting task. What can retailers do to ease them in?

[Shireen El Khatib @KhatibShireen]

Looking forward to participating in the “Climate Action Starts at Home” panel at #WEF22 hosted by @HelenaCLeurent. It's no secret that today’s consumers want to make environmentally friendly choices in principle. (1/2)

[Shireen El Khatib @KhatibShireen]

With more companies leaning towards #NetPositive goals, like @MajidAlFuttaim, robust green sourcing strategies will be vital to keeping price volatility in check as the demand for green materials eclipses the supply. #WEF22 #CarbonFootprint #Sustainability (2/2)

[Shireen El Khatib @KhatibShireen]

Getting a head start on effectively sourcing green materials is essential to ensure companies stay on track with their long-term carbon emission reduction goals. (1/2)
