Abstract

This case study illustrates the story of Raja Garage Ltd., a small car repair services company based in the UAE. It begins with Izat Raja’s dream to start his own business and follows his journey in pursuit of turning his dream into reality. Shortly after the establishment of his car workshop, Izat is joined by his nephew Waleed, and together they face the obstacles that arise on their road to success. Years later, Izat’s only son, Kamran, also joins Raja Garage Ltd. to find out that the company is slowly regressing and may be on the brink of failure.
