Hi
guys,
This
is my first post to my own blog. You can see my name is Arif Mahmood. I am from
Bangladesh. It is small but developing and promising country of South Asia.
I
have completed my B.B.A and M.B.A from the finest private university of Bangladesh,
namely North South University. It is an English medium university. During the
graduation, I had double major of Finance & Accounting and Business Policy
& Strategy with first class result. I worked in a private limited company
as part time marketing executive for two years during my undergraduate study. After
the graduation, I worked in Bank Asia Limited for three months as Intern in the
credit department. After that, I have joined Union Capital Limited, a well-known
NBFI of Bangladesh and descendant of former Hong Kong based famous financial
institution called Peregrine International. I worked there for two years as
Associate in Lease and Corporate Finance Department. Later on I have joined
Lanka-Bangla Finance Limited as Principal Officer in their Credit
Administration Department. After a while I have moved to Brac Bank Limited, the
largest SME bank of Bangladesh and sister concern of one of the largest NGO of
the world, BRAC. I worked there for two years as Associate Manager in
Origination Department in the concentration of corporate and syndication loan
origination.
During
my service, I have finished my M.B.A in Management with first class with
distinction of cum-laude. Later on, I have planned to devote myself for
building a knowledgeable generation for future and change my career path to
teaching. Therefore, I moved to Hong Kong to study further myself. I joined City
University of Hong Kong, which is a promising university in the world and ranked
as 9th in the Universities aged bellow 50 years. I have joined to
study MSc. in Organizational and Change Management. I have a further plan to
complete my Ph.D from any reputed university from abroad and then join any
university.
If
you know me, then you will understand that I am very friendly and open-minded
person. I like to make and see fun every moment of life. I think, I do not
know, tomorrow I will live or die, so I should live every moment of my life. I
believe, life is a beautiful gift from the god. We should enjoy the beauty. Most
of the time people only think and struggle to live and forget to enjoy the
beauty of life or think why they are living. I like to make and follow my own
philosophy of life:
“If
there is no fun, there is no life”
“I
always give my best effort to make everything perfect; it is only my fate that
often pulls me down”
“When
I am alone, I am alone but when I am not alone, I am all alone”
