DOHA: Annual Qatargas CEO Forum was held recently to focus on the development of the company’s national graduates and trainees, and provide updates on the company’s Qatarisation programme.  

Qatargas Chief Executive Officer Khalid bin Khalifa Al Thani met with young nationals working in the company at the 12th Annual Qatargas CEO Forum held under the theme ‘Commitment to Success.’ 

It provides the opportunity to share their experiences in Qatargas, highlight challenges they face and gather their feedback and suggestions in order to further improve the training and development programmes in place for nationals.

“As envisaged in the human development pillar of the Qatar National Vision 2030, and under the guidance of 

H E Dr Mohammed bin Saleh Al Sada, Minister of Energy and Industry and Chairman of Qatargas, the development of national workforce is a top priority at Qatargas. As we move closer to realising our vision of being the world’s premier LNG Company, competent national employees continue to play a key role in our success,” said Khalifa Al Thani. 

As part of the forum, Qatari nationals who have excelled in their careers and progressed to key positions in the company after completing their development programmes shared their success stories with the participants. There were also several group activities and presentations, including a motivational film. 

During a question and answer session at the forum, employees had the chance to ask any questions or raise concerns directly to the CEO. 

The CEO also presented awards to the best graduates and trainees for their outstanding performance in 2012. The coaches who excelled in training and mentoring the national employees were also honoured by the CEO.

This forum is one of several platforms, which provides an opportunity for Qatari national graduates and trainees to engage in open discussion with the company’s senior management and contribute to decision making, underlining their active involvement in their own personal development. The CEO Forum at Qatargas reflects the commitment made by the company’s senior management to its national workforce and helps forge a strong relationship between the young professionals and their coaches.

Qatargas is committed to develop, promote and recognise all of its employees. In particular, the company is committed to the development of its Qatari workforce. Qatargas provides unique opportunities for young nationals to benefit from the knowledge and expertise of its high calibre diverse workforce and international shareholders.
