David Dahlén D’Cruz Season 2 Episode 23

I would love to hear what you think of this episode. Write your thoughts here. Thank you for your feedback!

What does real success look like in a world full of noise, pressure, and performance-driven expectations?

In this episode, I sit down with Faris Aranki, founder of Shiageto Consulting and creator of the success equation:

Success = IQ × EQ × FQ. Drawing from his journey from classroom teacher to global strategy consultant, Faris shares how emotional intelligence, focus, and self-awareness are the true differentiators of modern leadership.

Together we explore:

  • Why EQ and FQ (Focus Quotient) are just as important as IQ
  • How to prioritize effectively in a noisy world
  • Leadership habits that actually work — especially for young professionals
  • Why redefining success is essential for personal growth and team impact
  • The role of curiosity, listening, and feedback in unlocking potential

This conversation is part of our monthly theme: Courage & Clarity in Life Shifts — and it’s a must-listen if you’re an aspiring leader, early-career professional, or someone navigating your next chapter with purpose.

🌟 This episode is filled with mindset-shifting insights, practical tools, and encouragement to lead with both courage and clarity.
