Here's my article on why it is so important to empower, develop and engage your middle managers, as recently published in Arabian Business. #management #humanresources #personaldevelopment https://bit.ly/3PEoVsC

David Ross, the esteemed author of "VUCA's Confronting the Storm" and a valued systems colleague, brings to the forefront a critical perspective on the role of Middle Management in organisational success. His insights underscore the pivotal importance of integrating Middle Management into the decision-making process, a strategy that hinges on key pillars: Effective Communication Empowerment of Staff Continuous Development Opportunities Recognition of Achievements Robust Support Systems This approach, though seemingly familiar, raises an essential query: How effectively are we focusing on these crucial areas? It prompts us to introspect and seek ways to enhance our efforts towards fostering teams that are not only high-performing but also creatively energized and deeply engaged. In this context, Employee Assistance Programs (EAP) and Employee Wellbeing Programs emerge as instrumental tools. These initiatives are not just supportive mechanisms; they are integral to the strategic execution and delivery phases of any project.

The Quest for Growth: Why Talents in Saudi Arabia Seek New Horizons Once upon a time in the vibrant landscapes of Saudi Arabia, a realm of opportunities and challenges, employees embarked on a quest not just for a job, but for a journey that promised growth, recognition, and fulfillment. Despite the kingdom's rich heritage and booming economic prospects, many found themselves at a crossroads, seeking paths that led beyond the familiar confines of their current roles. The story unfolds with aspirations clashing against reality, dreams seeking spaces to flourish, and talents yearning for a narrative where they are the protagonists. The narrative is not about dissatisfaction but about discovery. It's a tale of professionals who, akin to explorers, are in pursuit of environments that resonate with their values, offer continuous learning, and recognize their contributions. In this quest, they are not fleeing but rather advancing towards realms that promise a culture of innovation, leadership that inspires, and strategies that align with their aspirations for impact and growth. The take-away message is clear: organizations in Saudi Arabia and beyond must weave cultures that not only attract but retain the brightest minds. Cultivating an environment that fosters growth, recognizes contributions, and aligns with the evolving expectations of the workforce is paramount. As Korn Ferry advocates, leadership development and organizational strategies that are people-centric become the compass that guides towards a future where both talents and enterprises thrive together. #TalentDevelopment #Leadership #OrganizationalGrowth #CultureTransformation #SaudiArabia #fitforfuture This vivid tale serves as a beacon for leaders and organizations, illuminating the path to becoming a destination where talents don't just arrive but choose to stay and grow.
