Speaking to us this week is Mohamed Swilam, general manager of Roche Middle East (<\/span><span style=\"text-decoration-skip-ink:none;-webkit-text-decoration-skip:none;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/in\/mohamed-swilam-a567a550\/?originalSubdomain=eg\" style=\"\">LinkedIn<\/a><\/span><span style=\"font-weight:400;\">). Edited excerpts from our conversation:<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><span style=\"font-weight:700\">My name is Mohamed Swilam and I am a pharmacist. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight:400;\">I am very Alexandrian (laughs). Upon graduating, I fell in love with the pharma industry and the mission that we're pursuing. I've worked at four companies in four countries, starting with Novartis in Alex, then AstraZeneca in Kuwait for two years, then Eli Lilly in the UAE and Saudi Arabia for 6-7 years.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><span style=\"font-weight:700\">Eli Lilly was where I learned everything from sales to brand management. <\/span><span>The last thing I did there was a unique training program called the <\/span><span style=\"text-decoration-skip-ink:none;-webkit-text-decoration-skip:none;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/6sigma.com\/eli-lilly-six-sigma-lifelong-partnership\/\" style=\"\">Lean Six Sigma Black Belt<\/a><\/span><span>, where I learned a l<\/span><span>ot about continuous improvements and solving problems. It prepared me to grow into a leadership position. I then moved back to Egypt and took on a MENA-wide role at Roche.<\/span><span style=\"font-weight:700\"> <\/span><span>I had no intention of returning to Egypt, but it turned out to be the best thing that ever happened to me.<\/span><span style=\"font-weight:400;\"> <\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><span style=\"font-weight:700\">What we do at work is exactly what I want to do in life: <\/span><span>M<\/span><span>ake an impact. I consider myself fortunate to wake up every day excited about going to work. I feel fulfilled at work, and I know I shouldn\u2019t take that for gr<\/span><span>anted.<\/span><span style=\"font-weight:400;\"> <\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><span style=\"font-weight:700\">Being Roche's GM in my home country adds a unique flavor because the impact is so personal.<\/span><span style=\"font-weight:700\"> <\/span><span style=\"font-weight:400;\">With over 100 mn people in a low-to-middle-income country, there are many diseases to fight. It drives us to work harder. My role is to facilitate that work by putting the right people in the right places. A significant portion of my time is also spent meeting with external stakeholders and government officials. But my most important role is to help my team do their job better.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><span style=\"font-weight:700\">I usually only have about 30 minutes in the morning, so it's a very rushed morning routine. <\/span><span> I try to get up and pray Fajr, then go back to sleep for a while before getting up around 7<\/span><span>-8 am.<\/span><span> B<\/span><span style=\"font-weight:400;\">efore I leave the house, I make my espresso, pray, and read Quran. Then I'm off to work. On weekends, I go for a morning workout.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><span style=\"font-weight:700\">When I'm not in meetings, I like to go around the office and greet everyone. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight:400;\">My agenda is always full of back-to-back meetings, but I've begun to incorporate conscious breaks. I take two 15-minute breaks, and an hour to clean up emails, reflect, and do anything else that requires creative energy because back-to-back meetings do not foster creativity. My lunch break is 30 minutes long and it\u2019s usually a business lunch. I take someone with me to the break area.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><span style=\"font-weight:700\">Managing to stay focused and organized is a journey in today's highly dynamic work environment. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight:400;\">We're doing so many things at once that it's beyond multitasking. What I try is to first be clear about what I'm doing, what value I'm bringing, and what my goal is. We're not a large corporate elephant with a one-year plan. We have a long-term vision in mind, but we set what we want to achieve every 90 days.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><span style=\"font-weight:700\">There are many constants in my day. The spiritual aspect is very important to me, <\/span><span style=\"font-weight:700\">as is the sporting aspect. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight:400;\">I grew up playing volleyball and Judo, and I've been boxing for the past five years. It's a great way to de-stress at the end of the day. The minutes before I start are the most difficult because I have no energy. But I know it only takes one decision. I regain my energy after putting on my boxing gloves, and stay energized for an additional 3-5 hours after I\u2019m done. <\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><span style=\"font-weight:700\">Another constant is my relationship with my family. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight:400;\">I have two sons and a daughter. It's part of my daily routine to maintain a close connection with them. At the end of the day, my wife and I tell each other about how our day went.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><span style=\"font-weight:700\">Work-life balance is extremely difficult to achieve.<\/span><span style=\"font-weight:400;\"> At some point I worked 24\/7, especially when I was a first-line manager. My laptop was always on. I learned the hard way that relationships or connections can fall apart if you take them for granted, and if you don't make time to participate in sports, your health may suffer. I stopped exercising for a while, and I ended up gaining weight and even fainted while playing football during Ramadan. I was in my late twenties at the time, so it was a wake-up call. <\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><span style=\"font-weight:700\">I gradually improved my work-life balance <\/span><span>by incorporating sports into my lifestyle and not using the computer on weekends. Weekends are reserved for my family and my home. <\/span><span> Now, work takes up roughly 80-90% of my time. I\u2019d give myself a seven out of 10 when it comes to w<\/span><span>ork-life balance.<\/span><span> A<\/span><span style=\"font-size:10.5pt;font-weight:400\">fter a long day at work, I unwind by Boxing. I don't like sitting on a couch with my hands on the remote. I do this when we watch a movie as a family, so it has meaning. Cooking also allows me to unwind, and I make the best seafood pasta.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><span style=\"font-weight:700\">Every now and then, I need a long weekend to truly unwind.<\/span><span style=\"font-weight:400;\"> We require more than just weekends in this fast-paced environment. I go on family vacations, change the scenery, visit the desert, or go to Saudi and perform Umrah. I also enjoy fishing, so I spend some time alone on a boat on occasion.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><span style=\"font-weight:700\">The best advice I've received recently is that genuine, positive, constructive feedback is a gift <\/span><span>and that I need to pay attention to it. I'm accountable for the feedback I'm receiving. You must be aware of how others perceive you both professionally and personally. Being aware of how I am perceived by others. I constantly revisit my <\/span><span style=\"text-decoration-skip-ink:none;-webkit-text-decoration-skip:none;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.communicationtheory.org\/the-johari-window-model\/\" style=\"\">Johari window<\/a><\/span><span style=\"font-weight:400;\"> and I am conscious of my blind spots. I believe this is the essence of leadership \u2014 if I can influence myself to become a better version of myself, I will be able to influence others. <\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>What we do at work is exactly what I want to do in life<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":581619,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"single-feature.php","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"newspack_ads_suppress_ads":false,"newspack_popups_has_disabled_popups":false,"newspack_sponsor_sponsorship_scope":"","newspack_sponsor_native_byline_display":"inherit","newspack_sponsor_native_category_display":"inherit","newspack_sponsor_underwriter_style":"inherit","newspack_sponsor_underwriter_placement":"inherit","ep_exclude_from_search":false,"_primary_brand":0,"newspack_featured_image_position":"","newspack_post_subtitle":"","newspack_article_summary_title":"Overview:","newspack_article_summary":"","newspack_hide_updated_date":false,"newspack_show_updated_date":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[7156],"tags":[72,387],"brand":[],"newspack_spnsrs_tax":[],"class_list":["post-581618","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-my-morning-routine","tag-enterpriseam","tag-my-morning-routine","wpautop","entry"],"acf":{"mongo_id":"fce78275-a4a4-4bc7-99d6-d520312de008","is_powered_by":false,"story_type":"1","photo_url":"https:\/\/ent.news\/2023\/2\/Roche_Mohamed-Swaillam-Photo_1600-1.jpg","photo_position":"below","homepage_title":"My Morning Routine: Mohamed Swilam, GM of Roche Middle East","full_issue_title":"My Morning Routine: Mohamed Swilam, GM of Roche Middle East","related_issue":[581585],"teaser":"What we do at work is exactly what I want to do in life","voice_url":"https:\/\/s3.us-east-1.amazonaws.com\/ent.news\/audio\/2023\/2\/.b733eff2-cb55-42ab-bde2-21540402cc07.mp3"},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v27.1 (Yoast SEO v27.1.1) -
