Mirna Arif has achieved new ground by becoming the first woman in Egypt to head Microsoft Egypt. From 2002 to 2014, Arif then spent the first 12 years of her career at global oil services company Schlumberger. She would later become Regional Director for Digital Transformation at GE Oil & Gas in July 2017, where she took charge of promoting digital transformation strategies for oil and gas customers in North Africa and Turkey. To Arif, any woman seeking to further the future of her children is a role-model to be followed. A woman is pushed to play all the roles at the same time to the fullest, Arif says.
