  When I first shared the idea for   Pride AI and Business Solutions , the encouragement was overwhelming. Yet a few asked a thoughtful question: “Why the name Pride? Is it the right fit, especially for Ethiopia?” It’s a fair question.  Pride  can mean many things - self-confidence, achievement, heritage -  but for me, it’s not about ego. It’s about  legacy, purpose, and building something worth passing on. A Tribute to Legacy The name  Pride  is, first and foremost, a tribute to my late brother,  Dr. Solomon Belayneh . He ran a medical practice called  Pride Clinic  - a place where patients found not only treatment but compassion, trust, and dignity.

This starts with ensuring proper discipline in every aspect of our businesses – systematically challenging those limiting unique tr...

I made a call to Accountemp one day, frustrated and uncertain, and on the other end was someone who changed my life: Michael Gioia (Exceptional Recruiter at Accountemp, a Robert Half company). Mike didn't just find me a role; he rescued my spirit. I vividly remember his compassionate words, how he calmed and comforted me, meticulously facilitated my pre-assignment assessments, and placed me in a critical temporary role in just two weeks leading to my first break in corporate America. That opportunity didn’t just open a door - it restored my belief in myself. Mike’s compassion, commitment, and quiet confidence laid the foundation for everything that followed. Years later, I was heartbroken to learn through LinkedIn that he had passed away. His kindness, however, remains deeply imprinted on m...
