What drives someone to leave behind a successful business and a secure life for the unknown? Join us as we sit down with Nasser Nas Selo, who made the incredible journey from Syria to the United States amid the Syrian Civil War. Facing relentless job rejections, Nasser’s unyielding spirit led him to start his own IT business in Dallas, Texas. Through candid stories, Nasser shares the cultural shocks, language barriers, and sheer persistence that marked his path to achieving the American Dream.

Ever wondered what it takes to build a business from the ground up, especially in a foreign land? You won't want to miss Nasser’s account of founding IT for Scrubs—a company dedicated to IT training and support for the healthcare industry. Motivated by a desire to provide genuine career opportunities and counter unethical practices, Nasser’s story is a powerful reminder of the importance of having a purpose-driven business. As he navigates the challenges of entrepreneurship, from managing all aspects solo to expanding his team, Nasser’s journey underscores the significance of perseverance and community service.

But it’s not just about business. This episode also delves into the essence of human connection within a professional setting. Nasser emphasizes the value of empowering team members, fostering a supportive work environment, and the impact of positive communication on everyday interactions. From adopting business frameworks like EOS and OKRs to heartwarming anecdotes about simple acts of kindness, Nasser’s insights are both inspirational and practical. Join us for a conversation filled with lessons on leadership, resilience, and the power of a positive attitude.
