Nadia Karkar is General Counsel of TPG Growth and Rise. Nadia’s love of travel and exploration has led her through a series of career turns: law school, business school, international relations, CEO of a real estate firm, and corporate lawyer. Along the way, Nadia has struggled being a ‘generalist’, not necessarily holding a burning passion for any area. Through a process of elimination Nadia has found her voice. As she mentions, “You can’t always be a bull in a china shop”. But you can find passion in serving as an agent of positive change for those around her. In this episode, we’ll explore how Nadia has navigated a series of “career crises” and landed at one of the leading private equity firms in the world. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
