CEO Stories: Eman Al-Hillawi on career pivots, driving change and learning to fly
Eman Al-Hillawi, the CEO of change consultancy Entec-Si, is the latest guest on CEO Stories - the podcast hosted by Greater Birmingham Chambers of Commerce chief executive Henrietta Brealey.
The episode is available to listen to now on all major listening apps such as Apple Podcasts and Spotify.
Eman is passionate about driving change.
The Entec-Si CEO has experienced several transformational moments of her own – including moving to the UK from Iraq as a teenager, switching careers from science to technology and meeting her business partner Peter Marsden, with whom she created the Birmingham-based consultancy.
In this episode of CEO Stories, Eman talks to Henrietta Brealey about a successful career which has been built on people, relationships and creating great teams.
We also hear about Eman’s role in bringing a ‘wow’ factor to the Library of Birmingham and the two unusual hobbies that keep her busy away from the business environment.
CEO Stories is a monthly podcast hosted by Henrietta Brealey, who in 2021 became the youngest chief executive in the Chamber’s history.
A new episode is published on the first Monday of every month.
Throughout the series, Henrietta is joined by a variety of well-known and emerging business leaders, who will reveal what makes them tick, who inspired them and the advice they would give to aspiring CEOs.
Season One of the podcast featured a variety of guests include NEC Group chief executive Paul Thandi, Chamber president and Forensic Pathways founder Deb Leary, McDonald’s franchisee Doug Wright and TV chef Liam Dillon.
