DOHA: The Current and Future Executive Leaders Group of the Qatar Leadership Centre will hold a week-long series of strategic training and psychometric assessments at the Qatar National Convention Centre (QNCC).

Senior lecturers and professors from Harvard Business School will deliver lectures and training exercises on strategic thinking, networking, industry analysis and competitive thinking in global business environment as part of the Management Acumen element of the Current and Future Executive Leaders programme.

Psychometric assessment coaching sessions will also be delivered until Tuesday at QNCC, where Qatar Leadership Centre participants will be given feedback, coaching and guidance for personal growth and improvement.

The group of senior Qatari business and public sector leaders will visit the Qatar Science & Technology Park (QSTP) to explore, understand and learn more about the current and future plans of the organisation.

“Globally, research and development in both education and business remains one of the core drivers for national economic growth and National Vision 2030,” said Sheikh Dr Abdulla bin Ali Al Thani, Board Member and Executive Director of Qatar Leadership Centre.

“Through study trips such as this, our participants will continue to be exposed to research streams and industry themes that constitute one of the fastest growing sectors in the region,” he added.

QSTP works in four different areas: Energy, Environment, Health Sciences, and Information and Communication Technologies. As part of the Qatar Leadership Centre course, participants regularly visit a cross section of industries to meet leading figures and understand how all industries are driving towards the National Vision 2030. 

As part of the programme, candidates will meet industry leaders from oil and gas, education, government, healthcare, telecom and the ICT community.

Following the completion of the January courses, the Current and Future Executive Leaders group will attend courses delivered by Duke CE on Agile Leadership in early February. The Peninsula
