        methods of leveraging emotional intelligence to enhance both individual and team performance, through

        interactive activities.



        H.E. Abdulla Ali Bin Zayed Al Falasi, Director General of DGHR, stated that fostering a culture of innovation
        at workplaces is essential for keeping up with rapid changes, anticipating future challenges and addressing

        them effectively.



        H.E. stated: “At DGHR, we consider human capital as a critical facilitator of innovation. In line with this vision,
        we equip our employees with the requisite tools and skills, empowering them to think creatively and develop
        forward-looking solutions. The events and workshops organised by DGHR as part of the UAE Innovation

        Month further exemplify our enduring efforts in this regard. Moreover, as a government entity, we are
        committed to creating a dynamic work environment that integrates emotional intelligence with innovative

        technologies to uphold excellence in governance.”


        His Excellency further remarked: “As we step into a new era necessitating highly agile and inclusive work

        models, it is pertinent to position institutional innovation as an integral facet of daily operations, rather than a
        periodic initiative. Upholding this objective, DGHR implements various strategies to positively shape the

        nation’s future and drive transformative change, further solidifying the Dubai Government’s position as a
        global leader in effective governance.”



        During the workshop, Cox highlighted the role of emotional intelligence as a key facilitator of transformation

        and growth in modern workplaces, where innovation and adaptive thinking are key to overcoming evolving
        challenges. She further underscored its ability to empower individuals by helping them enhance collaboration
        and boost productivity.



        DGHR also organised a workshop titled ‘Towards a More Inclusive Workplace’, led by Linda Sabarini, a

        researcher and regional consultant. The session explored the importance of maintaining gender-classified
        data at workplaces to develop forward-looking policies that promote diversity and inclusivity within

        government institutions.



        Additionally, an interactive virtual meeting titled ‘Innovation Knowledge Share’, was held for participants and
        winners of the IdeasUK competition. It served as a dynamic platform for the exchange of creative ideas and
        practical experiences, paving the way for cross-sector collaboration and nurturing a culture of innovation at
