DOHA: ExxonMobil Qatar’s women’s network (EMRA’A) hosted a professional development workshop in Doha last week for more than 150 female employees from Qatar Petroleum, Qatargas, and ExxonMobil Qatar.
‘The Power of Presence’ workshop was led by Holly Davis, a Senior Consultant, Behavioral Expert and Leader Coach with Right Management.
The workshop helped participants explore tools and skills that will allow them to discover and develop their own unique presence. By using a range of techniques, Davis showed the group how to find their voice and purpose, enhance their presence as a leader in the workplace, and lead by inspiring and empowering others.
For two decades, Davis has been involved in helping organizations and leaders improve their effectiveness through a holistic approach that links behavior change to business results.
She has led large scale leadership development projects for global organizations spanning a diverse range of industries including conventional and alternative energy, financial services, technology, manufacturing, utilities, medical, and pharmaceutical. Davis has helped leaders achieve breakthrough results in effectively engaging their workforce and stimulating innovative solutions.
Amal Al Malki, Safety Security Health and Environment Specialist, for ExxonMobil Qatar said:’ “Workshops like this provide an opportunity to network with like-minded colleagues and to grow professionally and personally through open and interactive discussions. We’re delighted there is so much interest in our activities – once again, we had a wonderful and well-attended event.”

“I would like to thank all those that attended for their continuous support and enthusiasm that makes all our events at EMRA’A a big success,” she continued.
