Dr.alyaa@ntu.edu.iq

Success in work is one of my most important priorities, as I’m passionate about my job and creating the best and ideal art for management. I have a constant source of motivation to do my best, which is love of work. This passion led me to daily challenge myself and to learn new skills which helped me to do a better job. For example, I’ve taught myself how to use youth energy and current skills to challenge and solve challenges and produce results in scientific work management.
