How do you transform life's greatest tragedy into a global movement for peace and forgiveness? In this episode, we explore an extraordinary journey of resilience with Azim Khamisa, whose life was forever changed in 1995 when his son Tariq was tragically killed by a 14-year-old in an act of youth violence. Rather than choosing anger and revenge, Azim made the profound decision to pursue forgiveness and reconciliation, founding the Tariq Khamisa Foundation and launching a forgiveness movement that has reached millions globally. Now, this award-winning speaker and author of five books is transitioning his powerful message from social work settings into corporate leadership training. Join us as Azim reveals how the practice of forgiveness became the foundation for ethical leadership, team cohesion, and values-driven performance in corporate settings.
