The Institute for Executive Development (IED), a member of Abu Dhabi University Knowledge Group (ADUKG), is offering the first in a series of open courses, ‘Strategic Human Resources Management’, aimed at providing insight into the external and internal drivers that influence HR strategy, as well as maximizing a company’s human capital by developing and retaining employees.
Through its open course program IED hopes to improve the effectiveness of business leaders in facing various issues in different sectors by providing professional solutions that improve their impact and influence in their organizations. IED’s open courses are tailor-made to UAE organizations and are designed to fine-tune the existing skill set of top executives and to establish ways to excel at meeting their company’s objectives.
Dr. Gene Crozier, the Director of IED said, “The role of Human Resources Management in modern business has widened to ensure that not only does an organization acquire the right people for each job, but it also fulfills its underlying objectives. A more strategic approach ensures that the individual goals of employees are aligned to the overall goals of the company. IED offers a wide range of the most comprehensive, customized, and relevant courses in leadership and management training for high level executives, in the private and public sector in the UAE.”
The Strategic Human Resources Management course will take participants beyond HR’s traditional administrative role by providing a strategic approach to managing the human capital of an organization that requires making important choices, hand-picking the right people to do a job, and molding them through effective training to fit the nature of the task and the demands of the organization.
The training course will be organized by the Abu Dhabi University Knowledge Group on the 27th to 29th June, and again from the 23rd to 25th October. Professor Andrew Mayo, a Fellow and Program Director with the Centre for Management Development at the London Business School, will be the expert facilitator for this course.
Overcoming challenges faced by modern businesses in the GCC, effective head-hunting techniques that attract the best talent and a larger pool of prospective employees, and examining strategic issues in performance management, rewards and motivation will be topics to be discussed in the course. It is open to HR Directors and Vice-Presidents, HR professionals aspiring to take up the role of HR Director or VP, and CEO’s looking to improve the quality of HR in their organization.
IED will also offer open courses in areas such as strategy, leadership, building a high-performance culture, leadership in the healthcare sector, business professional modules, safety risk management and international hospitality management. The Institute provides a range of short executive programmes, accredited management certificates and diplomas as well as organisational and executive coaching.
