The Group conducted a careful evaluation process to select 22 participants for each of the two programmes, which included a committee representing various business units and departments at the Group level.
Led by Emeritus, a leading digital learning provider, the LeaderSHIFT and LevelUP spanning nine months, will also enhance the Group’s collective skills and competencies across its diverse business units.

The “ENOC Leadership Development Programme” aims to enhance sustainable value in the energy sector in line with the strategic objectives of Dubai in particular, and the broader UAE.
Last year, the Group initiated the Leadership Programme in collaboration with Ashridge Hut Business School, benefiting 26 Emirati professionals over nine months. This programme provided a valuable opportunity to develop leadership skills, explore new methods of collaboration and communication, and enhance resilience and adaptability to various practices. Additionally, the programme empowered participants to make decisions and effectively face challenges and difficult situations.
The programme also included an international educational trip to acquire global best practices in leadership, enriching the participants' experiences and increasing their leadership expertise.
