ABU DHABI, United Arab Emirates - Thursday, November 6th 2014 [ME NewsWire]
The
Directorate General of Residency and Foreigners Affairs in Abu Dhabi
implemented the “Share My Knowledge” initiative, which was launched by
the Acting Assistant Undersecretary of the Ministry of Interior for
Naturalization, Residency and Ports Affairs. As part of the initiative,
Colonel Salim Ali Al Qattam Al Zaabi, Director General of Residency and
Foreigners Affairs in Abu Dhabi delivered a lecture at the Emirates
Institute of Naturalization, Residency and Ports. During his speech, he
confirmed the vital importance of strategic thinking and its relation
with excellence and quality. He also gave an overview of the strategic
planning concept, the proper strategic planning methodology, objectives,
mechanisms and the appropriate measuring tool to assess the impact of
its implementation.
Moreover, Colonel Al Zaabi pointed
out the importance of strategic planning in any institution as an
approach to predict and to prepare for the future; based on an analysis
of both the present and future expectations in order to determine the
appropriate goals and methods to achieve them efficiently and
effectively, in accordance with the priorities of a given timetable.
Furthermore,
Colonel Al Zaabi underscored the importance of planning in ensuring a
clear vision and mission, determining goals, the optimal use of
resources and capabilities, achieving integration in coordination,
identifying priorities commensurate with the needs, controlling
implementation-related problems, reducing anticipated risks, and
achieving optimal results.
Colonel Al Zaabi also shed
the light on the difference between traditional planning and strategic
planning. “Traditional planning is merely a reaction to events during
which the decision making is an individual process; evaluation is
carried out at year-end. In contrast, strategic planning has current,
future and exceptional objectives. It involves an assessment of both the
internal and external situations, where decisions are taken
collectively and the assessment process undergoes continuous follow-up,”
he continued.
“The methodology is designed to turn the
different stages of planning into an institutional process aimed at
preparing plans that reflect the internal and external situations and
meet the needs and requirements of external customers. The methodology
also guarantees the follow-up on the implementation process, as well as
continuous development and modernization based on the optimal use of the
available resources in order to achieve the MoI’s vision and implement
its mission,” added Colonel Al Zaabi.
The Director
General of Residency and Foreigners Affairs in Abu Dhabi presented an
overview of his experience in the area of strategic planning during his
work at a number of police work sites. At the end of the lecture, he
answered the questions and queries of the attendees.
The
lecture was attended by Colonel Yusuf Ismail Al Khouri, Deputy Director
General of Residency and Foreigners Affairs in Abu Dhabi; heads of
departments and chiefs of sections; as well as a number of officers and
staff members from the Directorate General of Residency and Foreigners
Affairs.
