Matrix Report
Fahad Qadir, the Director for Public Affairs and Communications at Coca-Cola Pakistan was just inducted into the Asia Pacific’s list of people ’40 under 40′. Asia Pacific generates a list each year to acknowledge 40 professionals under the age of 40. It dedicates the list to the people that are potential leaders of the future.
This is the first time Pakistan is being represented on the list. Fahad Qadir joined Coca-Cola in 2007 as the Manager for Public Affairs for Pakistan. He rose the ranks of the country and became the Director just a few years later.
This time around, the list especially included several marketing and public relations professionals. Fahad Qadir was shortlisted from a total number of 1,500 nominations. He was one of the “brightest and high-achieving” marketing professionals.
Alongside his job as Director PR and Communications, the 36-year-old also oversees and heads the CSR division of the company. His recent work was in partnership with the UNDP, on water positivity. His focus is towards waste management and women empowerment, with the CSR programme.
