The Dubai Department of Economic Development (DED) honoured graduates of the first batch of the Middle Management Leadership programme launched in 2009 as part of its contribution to the UAE’s nationalisation and capacity-building goals.
The first batch included 20 employees selected from the middle management of DED and its agencies including the Export Development Corporation, the Mohammed Bin Rashid Establishment for SME Development, the Dubai Events and Promotions Establishment and the Foreign Investment Office.
DED director general Sami Daen Al Qamzi distributed certificates to the participants at a ceremony held in the department.
The training programme is part of DED’s effort to provide a supportive environment for personnel growth and human resource development within the organization, and thus contribute effectively to improving the services provided to customers, he said.
The programme, Al Qamzi said, included practical tools needed for leadership success including modules on leadership and management development, project management skills, creative problem-solving and decision–making, along with presentation skills.
The programme structure was aimed at enabling the future leaders to implement the learning in their daily activities as they completed each module.
“DED believes that its human resources is its greatest wealth and has implemented this programme to nurture and develop their competencies and expertise. It is in line with the goals of the Dubai Strategic Plan 2015 to promote national leadership,” Al Qamzi stated.
“The department seeks to inculcate in its employees with dedicated skills that can be applied to the practical work environment. The leadership programme offers a flexible way to help develop careers,” he added.
Dr Jasim Al Ali, director of Human Resources at the DED, said: “The usefulness of the training lies in its ability to provide us with knowledge and new experience at a practical level. DED urges all participants to leverage the knowledge derived from the programme to the fullest and successfully employ it to further build their careers.”
“DED plans to launch additional leadership programmes for senior and middle management employees as per the training programme plan for 2010,” he added.-TradeArabia News Service
