A Large Bank in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia

Project Description

Developing the future leaders: The Bank identified 150 future leaders through an assessment center. They identified the key areas they need for their competency development. Using a blended active learning approach, they were taken on a journey to develop their competencies in preparation for them being promoted to higher positions with more responsibilities. Top management were acting as their mentors on the journey. We designed the project to meet the needs of both target groups.
