✨Journeys of Empowerment✨ – Episode 11
Imagine moving across continents, navigating major life changes, and still having the drive to create something bigger than yourself. That’s the story of Mustafa El Maghrabi, a founder, innovator, and someone deeply committed to redefining how companies support their people.
From launching a startup during university to working at Booking.com, Mustafa saw a massive gap in employee perks and benefits, one that left too many people unsupported. So, he built Novu, a platform designed to empower employees with flexible benefits that actually work for them.
In this conversation, we explore:
- His move from Cairo to the Netherlands: the challenges & lessons learned;
- The broken state of employee benefits: why one-size-fits-all solutions fail;
- Burnout, mental health & recovery: personal wake-up call that led to Novu;
- Lessons from the Egyptian Revolution: the power of action in uncertainty;
- The Role of Intuition: how trusting his gut shaped his biggest decisions!
What stuck with me?
- A rigid workplace can’t support a dynamic workforce, flexibility is the future;
- Resilience isn’t just about bouncing back, it’s about building something stronger;
- Intuition is a skill, you can train yourself to trust it!
And Mustafa’s big goal?
Positively impact 100 million employees, and he’s just getting started!
