His Highness Sheikh Sultan bin Ahmed bin Sultan Al Qasimi, the Deputy Ruler of Sharjah and President of the University of Sharjah, presided over the signing of a pivotal memorandum of understanding (MoU) between the University of Sharjah (UOS) and the Tamayuz Institutional Excellence Award. This agreement, finalized at the university, sets the stage for a knowledge empowerment initiative aimed at boosting institutional excellence.
Fostering Quality and Competitive Standards
During the signing event, His Highness underscored the importance of the Tamayuz Award in elevating institutional performance and promoting a robust quality culture. He pointed out that insights gleaned from previous discussions are being actively put to use to further refine the award framework.
He highlighted that even though excellence is prevalent across various institutions, such accolades are essential for identifying high achievers and cultivating a competitive spirit that fosters continual progress. Entities participating in this initiative are also encouraged to utilize feedback from past award cycles and nominate staff for targeted training.
MoU Emphasizes Human Resource Development
The MoU was formalized by Hassan Yaqoub Al Mansouri, Director of the Tamayuz Award, and Professor Esameldin Agamy, Chancellor of the University of Sharjah, surrounded by senior officials.
This agreement places a strong emphasis on the development of human talent through training in excellence frameworks. Notable initiatives include:
Institutional Excellence Diploma for organizational teams
Job Excellence Programme for individual contributors
These programs aim to furnish participants with the abilities required to compile and present excellence portfolios in alignment with recognized standards.
Creating a Sustainable Culture of Excellence
The partnership establishes a versatile framework poised for future collaborations and an expansion of programs. It signifies a strategic maneuver towards adopting excellence as an enduring aspect of organizational culture, rather than merely a transient objective.
Officials noted that this collaboration successfully bridges the gap between theoretical knowledge and its practical application, empowering institutions to embrace structured methodologies for sustainable performance results.
Leaders Affirm Impact and Vision
Hassan Al Mansouri commended the enduring support from the award’s leadership, asserting that it inspires institutions to elevate their performance and fortifies cross-sector collaboration.
Professor Esameldin Agamy reiterated that this partnership will aid organizations in translating excellence concepts into actionable strategies while enhancing teamwork and institutional competencies. He also pointed out that the award’s diverse categories serve as a significant strength, encouraging innovation and healthy competition.
