Celebrating Success and Looking Ahead to Excellence in Strategy Management Last week, we proudly concluded another highly successful Excellence in Strategy Management and Execution Using KPIs training session in Arabic. Congratulations to all participants for their dedication to mastering performance indicators and elevating their strategic execution skills!  This recent achievement underscores the importance of clear, actionable KPIs in driving the success of transformative strategies like Saudi Arabia’s Vision 2030 and Qatar’s National Strategy 2024-2030. While bold ambitions, specific timelines, and top-level leadership set these strategies apart, their success hinges on measurable, well-cascaded KPIs that ensure oversight and accountability. Without well-chosen performance indicators, even the most visionary strategies risk faltering in execution. Identifying and cascading effective KPIs across management levels is one of the most significant challenges organizations face today. These indicators must be measurable, realistic, and actionable—not overly ambitious or overly simplistic—to truly drive results.   To help you overcome these challenges and enhance your strategic impact, we are excited to announce our next Excellence in Strategy Management and Execution Using KPIs course in English, scheduled for December 15-19, 2024, at the luxurious Hilton Doha, The Pearl, nestled in one of Doha’s most stunning resort areas. 💲 Fee: $4,300 📌 Seats are limited—secure your spot today! 🔗 Register here: https://lnkd.in/dxUPy3NC 📩 Inquiries: info@vision-smc.com 📁 Download the Brochure: https://lnkd.in/dacwG777 Let’s continue to drive excellence in leadership and strategy together! #VisionSMC #StrategyExecution #KPIMastery #LeadershipDevelopment #ProfessionalGrowth #StrategyExecution #BalancedScorecard #TheKPIInstitute #Vision2030

High performance leaders and teams never stop investing in their pursuit of greatness; ES:ME Entertainment Services is one of those global businesses I enjoy working with. In 2007 Chairman Rene Karnahl and Global CEO Alexander Wuerfel created what has become one of the leading entertainment service providers for technical consultancy, venue services and AV and rigging equipment hire. The business has grown exponentially in recent years and has now expanded into Saudi Arabia, so it was time to pause for a day, reset and prepare for a supercharged 2024/5. We formally welcomed People and Culture manager DORINA OPREAN and KSA Operations Director Matthew Clarke to the expanded team and with that worked with FeelQuest to further align the team, working with horses in the paddock. I’ve talked about this here before, and more people ask me about this methodology of coaching. Horses request the finest leadership qualities from humans if they are to carry us into war: charisma, a clear vision, direct communication, at the same time humility and accountability. We don't ride a horse into battle during our management training, however, we use the finely tuned non-verbal communication skills of the horse to develop emotional qualities in our leaders which cannot be learned via books or videos. Being social prey animals living in herd hierarchies, horses teach us about collaboration, self-awareness, clear communication and about the impact we have on others. Their feedback is always honest, immediate, unbiased and non-judgemental, thus allowing us to see clearly who we really are; their interaction leads to incredible results in shifting people's awareness and choice. Not only was our day together one of super high performance and introspection, it was memorable.

2024 was a remarkable year of growth and success for #wood in #AbuDhabi. Within just one year, we welcomed over 650 talented professionals to our business, marking a 40% increase from the previous year. We secured major projects that demanded smart, skilled, and reliable individuals to deliver exceptional results. This incredible team comprises talent from both within the #UAE and across the globe—individuals who made significant life changes to pursue their passion and be part of this journey. All of this took place at CI Tower in Abu Dhabi, the cornerstone of our operations. If you look closely at the image of the tower’s entrance, you’ll notice the faces of those 650 individuals captured on their very first day at induction—a powerful symbol of growth, collaboration, and ambition.

Cultural Understanding Over the years, the senior leadership team have honed their tradecraft in complex environments. Crown Consulting boasts some impressive projects and being the Complex Environment entity for the Westminster Security Group. Cultural understanding has become paramount for our foreign projects, especially multi-country projects. Recently Crown Consulting took a client group of varying nationalities to Dubai, Saudi Arabia and finished in Colombia, over a two-week period. The importance of providing intelligence-based advice can be the difference between a safe project or being responsible for an embarrassing situation. Customs, cultures, traditions, and social norms should all be part of your research and delivered to the principals during a pre-task brief. #closeprotection #securityjobs #riskmanagement #complexenvironments

Nick Tasler is the master of change management. Over the years he has shared a great number of insights with ALTO members. One of our favourite analogies likens change to a rip current. A rip current is a narrow channel of water that can carry swimmers away from the beach and out to sea. If you get caught in a rip, you have 3 choices: 1. Swim against the current in an attempt to get back to the shore 2. Swim to the side to get out of the narrow current 3. Use the rip current to your advantage – A trick surfers use. Normally, surfers must use time and energy to get out to where the waves are breaking. But by using a rip current they get to where they want to go, faster and more efficiently. Change--whether wanted or unwanted, expected or unexpected--gives you those same three options. 1. You can wear yourself out trying to swim against change. 2. You can try to get out of the way and simply survive...while letting the change pass you by. 3. You can learn to swim with change, and let it transport you and your team to some place rewarding and exciting at speeds that wouldn’t have been possible without it. We are looking forward to hearing more from Nick at the ALTO Conference in Dubai.

Advice to Top Notch Managers & Leaders You are powerful leader if you pass one decision to your subordinates or employees and they accept from core of their heart with full responsibility. They consider your commitment to client as their own commitment. It will be possible only once you are in close touch with them. Allocate time from your schedule to listen the issues of your subordinates and show some involvement. What kind of support you can offer to them in form of advice or counseling , just give it to them. If you can not solve their issues , atleast just listen to them and share some words that every thing will be sorted out. Alibaba Owner Jack Ma Yun was having one to one relation for first 2000 employees. So if you want to have bigger impact , don't be isolated from your subordinates. Once your team started feeling ignored and irrelevant, their performance will start getting compromised. Adopt this tip for a while and see how it works.
