Honourable Advisory Board Member, Her Highness Shaikha Dr. Alia Humaid Al Qassimi, Social Development Expert highlights, “I envision a promising future led by the youth, who are incredibly adept with the use and application of technology and will be at the forefront of innovation. The strategic goals of tomorrow will be achieved through advanced technologies—technologies that the youth are already mastering. Their early exposure to gaming, for example, has honed their skills in virtual reality and AI, making these technologies second nature to them. This familiarity allows them to adapt quickly to technological advancements and integrate these tools seamlessly into their daily lives and the workforce. As a result, they are more resilient and capable of meeting their goals with greater ease than those less accustomed to technology.”
The GCC region has embraced AI and advanced technology across both public and private sectors, with leadership across the board committed to driving innovation. Our market is diverse and dynamic, and by applying AI and technology in every facet, we can fast-track the achievement of government objectives and strategic goals.
This GOV HR and YOUTH Summit and Awards is a platform to celebrate the achievers and achievements of various sectors and the individuals who have demonstrated resilience and potential in driving our future forward.”
Honourable Advisory Board Member and Speaker, Her Excellency Dr. Maryam Matar, Founder and Chairperson, UAE Genetic Diseases Association, expressed about the Summit, “The 12th Annual GCC Government HR & Youth Summit is a vital opportunity to unite our efforts in empowering youth and enhancing human resource strategies, ensuring that the leaders of tomorrow are equipped to shape a sustainable and inclusive future for the GCC.”
At this prestigious Summit, Keynote Speaker, Faisel Bashir, Market leader - KSA, Kuwait & Asia Pac., Mercer Talent Enterprise says, "The future of Human capital in the GCC will be shaped by three main things: The science of people that provides talent intelligence revolving around skills and knowledge, and data points that ensure decision makers make more informed critical decisions when acquiring new talent, assessing employee performance and retention. Secondly, as more Generation Z employees enter the workforce, this tech savvy workforce will reshape company culture by driving innovation and prioritizing workplace well-being. And equally important, is succession planning - with volatile business environments where change is the only constant, ensuring that the right approach is implemented to plan to accommodate unforeseen circumstances or alterations in corporate direction. Succession planning is no longer a nice to have but a must have for business continuity.”
Dr. Ebrahim Al Khajeh, Director of Human Capital, PMO Program Manager, Member of Strategic Transformation Committee, Abu Dhabi Customs, UAE further adds, “To stay ahead of the market and effectively prepare for future challenges, transformation efforts should prioritize four key pillars. First, Mindset/Strategy is crucial since the leadership of any organization must align their mindset with the new strategy and clear roadmap for the next five years, ensuring that all employees are pursuing the same goals and deliver on the set targets. Second, focusing on People is essential by understanding their needs and preferences, that will guide the selection of the most appropriate change management approach to deliver on the organization’s strategy. Third, Process should be automated and reengineered to enhance efficiency and lean practices, fostering a culture of continuous improvement and sustainable growth. Lastly, it is critical to incorporate Technology by adopting the latest advancements that address the requirements of the other three pillars, including AI, ML, AOT, regenerative AI, blockchain…etc. to ensure the organization’s readiness for the future and allow it to remain competitive in the market.”
This year’s event also includes the prestigious GCC GOV HR & Youth Awards on October 10, 2024, which will celebrate organizations and individuals making strides in advancing human capital development.
