About three years ago a contract was signed between three ambitious partners to create an organization driven by skills, diversity, tenacity and ingenuity.
Working on a world-class project there are critical tasks to reach full commissioning that would deliver a dynamic game changing integrated power generation facility, the likes of which the world has never seen. This entails specific strategic competency design for three distinct project phases. It requires different competencies to transition through the different project phases.
The different phases require specific skillsets (leadership skills) to enable the transition. A functional approach was followed in designing the leadership competencies for commissioning and performance testing.
To develop the required competencies a specific and targeted approach was used by the organization to grow the necessary skills.
This presentation will take the delegates on a talent development journey in the middle East. It will showcase the unique challenges and endless opportunities that come with building an organization from the ground up.
This is a case study and delegates will be informed about the complexities of starting a company from nothing ito human capital. We will be sharing lessons learnt.
