Featured in AGBU FOCUS 2019 Global Booklet

Emma Arakelyan was featured in AGBU (Armenian General Benevolent Union) FOCUS 2019 Booklet with her “The Business Caring Formula” book.

AGBU FOCUS is a world class biennial event that brings together young Armenian professionals from across the globe for a weekend of culture, idea-exchange, nightlife, networking and celebration of a shared Armenian identity.

Since its inception at 2001, AGBU FOCUS has distinguished itself as a unique platform for interpersonal engagement, offering a venue for YPs to meet with likeminded peers and engage in meaningful dialogue through forums like Perspectives and the Conference.

FOCUS also serves as an opportunity to highlight the direct and positive impact of AGBU programs. Each year, the organizing committee selects an important program relating to one of the organization’s core pillars – education, culture, humanitarian relief, and socio-economic development -and launches a year-long global campaign to raise awareness and generate funds to support and enhance the initiative.

This year marks a much-anticipated AGBU FOCUS in South America. With participants travelling to Sao Paulo from destinations as far as Australia, Spain and South Korea – hundreds will have the chance to expand their networks and come away with a greater sense of unity and empowerment as global Armenian citizens.

The topic is: Inspirational Leadership through and beyond COVID-19

An inspirational leader serves the needs of his/her employees, listens, and develops trust.
