Advance Praise
Against the backdrop of social contestation and reactionary politics on the topic of immigration, Elham Fardad takes a different path. Her book is a narration of individual strength, but it is clear throughout that where migrants succeed, the winners are the societies, organizations, businesses and people they touch. Combining personal experience with that of countless other migrants in the UK, she brings warmth and humanity to stories that are contemporary but could transcend time and place to be a depiction of migration throughout modern history. This is a book of hope and validation, for migrants and for those that welcome them. - Sayeh Ghanbari Partner, EY
Elham’s Migrant Magic is a captivating journey into a world where the resilience of migrants transforms into extraordinary magic. Her writing, infused with heart and sincerity, is a beacon for young souls navigating exclusion. This insightful guide, born from genuine experience, provides practical tips for unlocking one’s potential. Elham’s profound understanding of the migrant experience creates a narrative that resonates deeply. As someone working with diverse talent and business leaders, I highly recommend Migrant Magic. It not only celebrates the triumphs of the marginalized but also serves as a testament to the limitless potential within us all. - Cynthia V. Davis, CBE, CEO and Founder, Diversifying Group
This is a book of inspiration and possibilities. It’s a story that captures the essence of what it means to face impossible challenges and realize potential and ambition. Never have those experiences been truer than those who have had the word migrant attached to their life’s journey. Elham has captured what lies at the very heart of this journey not only through her own experiences but also touching upon those of others who have gone through the same journey. In doing so, she covers the challenges, opportunities as well the values that migrants have contributed to both their own successes and that of the host country. - Nitin Parmar, Director, Developer Relations (Global), London Stock Exchange Group
