My deconstruction journey was guided by a Muslim work mentor, who emphasised how problematic individualism is, especially in a workplace environment, as it erodes trust, builds silos, puts pressure on an individual rather than spreading it through the team.

The Islamic approach of individual responsibility is such a refreshing and holistic approach to compared to the West's individualism.
