Empowering Change: Dr. Reem on Leading and Multiplying Impact

In this episode, Umar sits down with Dr. Reem, a global thought leader in cybersecurity and digital transformation, particularly in the energy sector. Dr. Reem, a passionate and empathetic leader, shares insights from her extensive 23-year career journey, including her role as the Digital Transformation Leader at Kuwait Oil Company, where she spearheaded innovative changes in corporate solutions and digital oil fields. As the first female CISO in Kuwait’s oil sector, she made significant strides in elevating the country’s national cybersecurity maturity.

Dr. Reem’s leadership extends beyond technology, as she is a founding partner of Women in CyberSecurity Middle East (WiCSME), and she advocates for inclusion and diversity in the tech world. Throughout the conversation, she emphasizes her belief in being a “multiplier”—someone who not only grows from individual successes but creates opportunities that benefit the broader community. Her involvement in global forums and commitment to building stronger teams showcase her dedication to fostering collaboration and innovation.

The episode delves into her journey as a mom, a servant leader, and a woman breaking barriers in a traditionally male-dominated field, inspiring others with her belief that when one rises, everyone rises.
