Women’s Leadership Program Empowers Emirati and Arab Women in the UAE

Women’s Leadership Program Empowers Emirati and Arab Women in the UAE

Empowering 450+ women in leadership & digital innovation, the Nomu Al Ghurair Program is shaping future changemakers!

Dubai just witnessed an epic graduation, and no, we’re not talking about your typical cap-and-gown ceremony with awkwardly long speeches. The 11th cohort of the Nomu Al Ghurair Women Empowerment Program just wrapped up, and let’s just say—these Emirati and Arab women didn’t just earn certificates; they walked away with superpowers in leadership, problem-solving, and digital innovation.

Organized by the Abdulla Al Ghurair Foundation (AGF) in partnership with Skyrize Partners and Accenture, this isn’t your run-of-the-mill leadership workshop. Oh no, it’s the launchpad for future changemakers, designed to turn ambitious women into forces to be reckoned with. Over 450 women sharpened their skills through workshops, real-world case studies, and the ultimate test—surviving time management training (seriously, if you can master that, you can do anything).

Digital Innovation Meets Real-World Impact

Imagine this: a room full of brilliant women tackling sustainability through digital innovation, brainstorming solutions that could very well change the future. That’s exactly what happened during the capstone case study “Driving Sustainability Through Digital Innovation.” Think Shark Tank—but with way more ambition and way less unnecessary drama.

Dr. Sonia Ben Jaafar, CEO of AGF, summed it up best: “The Nomu Al Ghurair Program is a testament to our commitment to empowering women as architects of change.” In other words, they aren’t just learning—they’re leading, innovating, and rewriting the future of the workforce.

A Power Team of Collaborators

Dubai’s innovation game is already top-tier, but with leaders like Sarah Sefiane (Founder & CEO of Skyrize Partners) and Nadya Abdulla Kamali (UAE Country Managing Director at Accenture) backing this initiative, the momentum is unstoppable. “It’s inspiring to see women engage in forward-thinking topics like technology,” said Sefiane. Kamali echoed the sentiment, emphasizing how upskilling women opens doors to new career opportunities—not just for them, but for the entire community.

The Grand Finale: Showcasing Brilliance

You know the saying, “Go big or go home”? Well, these participants took that very seriously. To cap off the program, they presented their innovative solutions to industry leaders, proving that they can integrate sustainability with digital transformation like absolute pros. If you ever doubted that women are shaping the future of tech and leadership—this event just proved you so, so wrong.

More Than a Program—A Movement

The Nomu Al Ghurair Women Empowerment Program isn’t just an initiative; it’s a game-changer. By equipping young women with the skills they need to thrive, it’s paving the way for a workforce that’s smarter, stronger, and more dynamic than ever. With alignment to UN Sustainable Development Goals like Quality Education (SDG 4), Gender Equality (SDG 5), and Decent Work & Economic Growth (SDG 8), this is about real, impactful change—not just feel-good corporate fluff.

So, what’s next for these graduates? Well, don’t be surprised if the next big tech innovation, sustainability breakthrough, or Fortune 500 CEO comes from this very group. Watch out, world—Dubai’s power women have arrived, and they mean business.
