Supporting the Development of Tomorrow’s Leader
Client: Centre of Excellence (CoE) for the General Secretariat to the Executive Council (GSEC)
Location: UAE
BACKGROUND
The Centre of Excellence (CoE) for the General Secretariat to The Executive Council (GSEC) identified a requirement to assess the leadership performance of a number of its selected Executive Directors, and to create an assessment for continuing use. Having worked closely with GSEC and the CoE for two years, they selected HRD as their partner based on their proven experience of delivering leadership assessment to Emiratis and adhering to challenging timelines.
PROJECT

We then handed over all of the assessment centre materials to the Centre of Excellence to be used for future assessments.
