The Dubai Business Associates programme offers learning partnerships that provide Associates with a range of crucial skills in a timely manner. Graduates relish from the experience of being exposed to class experts and thought leaders as they prepare to progress their careers in the world of business.
DBA Alumna Hiba Saif Altamimi, Project Manager at dnata Travel Group, writes about her time at DBA and reflects on how the programme played a major role in her professional development, by teaching her vital hard skills along with the importance of professional and academic diversity.
It’s important too not to underplay the hard skills that the DBA programme provides. Coming at consultancy from all angles – learning core methodologies, operational skills, how to present, and having the coaches there at every step – has given me a professional confidence that I may have struggled to develop in a working environment alone.
The experience has certainly helped me to play a strategic role at dnata, where I am directly involved in supporting the design and implementation of the dnata Travel Group strategy that encompasses over 15 worldwide travel brands.
