Who are you without your position, your job title, your office, and the people waiting for your decision?

In this episode of Yowab, Saeed Al Ghafri discusses our relationship with positions and what happens when a person ties their identity and worth to the role they've held for years.

Retirement, resignation, moving to another job, or leaving a company can change more than just your daily routine. Meetings and communication decrease, some relationships change, and suddenly you start asking: If I'm not the manager or the boss, who am I?

The problem begins when the position becomes the primary source of your sense of worth. Because the position is temporary, but your experience, your impact, and how you interact with people can last for years afterward.

In this episode, you'll learn:

✔️ Why we might unknowingly link our identity to our job title
✔️ What happens when a position ends and people's behavior towards you changes
✔️ Why clinging to the past keeps you stuck in a phase that has passed
✔️ How to discover your worth beyond your title and position
✔️ How to identify where your expertise can benefit others
✔️ Why you don't need a new position to prove your worth
✔️ How to prepare for life after leaving your position while you're still in it
✔️ Why humility and respect remain even after power ends
