Raja’s Story

Do not limit your challenges, challenge your limits”

Raja Najar

I must start by saying that the above quote holds good because of the wonderful people I have had an opportunity to learn from since the beginning of my career at Temenos. Coming from a non-IT background, it is thanks to the persistent support of my colleagues and managers that I have been able to challenge my limits and make the transition. I started out feeling like an integral part of the Temenos family and that hasn’t changed.

Being a Temenosian primarily means that I am learning all the time from the best people. It means that I have the freedom to experiment and that my actions are supported and encouraged. It means I have the freedom to think outside the box and have all my thoughts considered seriously.

It means that I am able to use my skills and knowledge as well as push myself in areas that I am unsure of sometimes. It means that I am allowed to grow and show my potential.

Being a Temenosian means that I can express my gratitude to the company and its people. My colleagues are a pleasure to work with and make it enjoyable to be here.
