Adel Al Shared, CEO of MBRPLD, said:
"The launch of the 'Aligning people with your leadership vision' module will add a new dimension to the Government Leaders program as the module focuses on contemporary management and leadership techniques. Moreover, the new module perfectly complements MBRPLD's goal of creating a pool of efficient and inspirational government leaders in Dubai who will significantly contribute to the sustained progress and development of Dubai and the UAE as a whole."
Obaid Rashed Dafoos AlMuhairi, one of the participants of the Government Leaders program said, "MBRPLD's decision to include this latest module to the program will expose us to modern day leadership practices, which in turn will broaden our perspective. I am keen to make the most of the new module that is centred on the idea of aligning people with the leadership vision, rightly recognising the importance of human capital in today's society."

He shared his experience and explained to the participants how this program has benefited him in his role as head of RERA. Bin Ghulaita focused on the importance of building talented teams, listening to others, exploring oneself, networking, benefiting from the personal development plan and applying what is learnt from MBRPLD in a leader's professional role.
