“The Leaderships Program aims at establishing an advanced methodology to promote the level of senior leadership. It also aims at achieving the end vision of Lt. General HH Sheikh Saif bin Zayed Al Nahyan, Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Interior, which emphasized the need for continued training and coaching, to qualify second and third class leaders to effectively lead their subordinates as they hold leadership positions at the various police headquarters and departments. This would allow us to attain the coveted goals and achieve the best results, so as to maintain security and stability in the country,” indicated Lt. General Al Sha’far.

Lt. General Al Sha’far urged the graduates to redouble efforts to improve the standard of security services provided by the Abu Dhabi Police to all members of society.
