Josoor Institute, a centre for sports and events industries, in partnership with Georgetown University’s McDonough School of Business, recently concluded a week-long bespoke ‘Leadership and Managerial Core Competencies’ executive education programme for the Qatar Football Association (QFA) and the Qatar Stars League (QSL).
More than 25 senior managers from both the QFA and the QSL attended the course, exclusively developed and tailored to the requirements of both organisations. The attendees benefited from a wide range of practical and interactive workshops, exercises and teaching sessions during the five days with course content designed to support the managers’ professional growth and development and prepare them as future leaders.
Commenting on the latest executive education programme Mushtaq Al Waeli, Executive Director (acting) of Josoor Institute said: “We are extremely honoured by our partnership with the QFA and the QSL, and pleased with the success of this latest course. Delegates have clearly indicated the benefits they derive and how they are able to directly apply key learnings to their professional growth and development. This builds on a strong track record of courses that Josoor Institute has previously delivered for both organisations.” 
Among the presenters from Georgetown University were Dr Michael McDermott, Professor and Dr Rebecca Heino, Teaching Professor. They were joined by Roberto Flores, Assistant Dean for Program Management at Georgetown University and Ryan Bowd, Director of Education from Josoor Institute.
Josoor Institute’s programmes and courses are designed to impart industry best knowledge, skills and expertise that enable the effective and successful management of sporting events in the region. The Peninsula
