Muscat: The Royal Academy of Management (RAM), in collaboration with the Supreme Judicial Council, has launched the Najiz Programme to strengthen Oman’s judicial competencies.
Designed for 59 presidents of primary and appeal courts and aligning with the nation’s strategic vision to further improve and streamline procedures in the judicial system, the new programme aims to enhance judicial leadership and equip court officials with the knowledge and tools required to ensure swift and effective justice.
The Najiz Programme aims to advance efficiency and foster leadership excellence, which will contribute to reinforcing public confidence in the legal framework and enhancing institutional performance within the judiciary system.
Carefully designed to address adaptive leadership skills and managerial competencies deemed essential for court presidents to fulfill their judicial responsibilities, the Najiz Programme will enable participants to practice their strategic and creative thinking, decision-making, change management, and stress management skills while enhancing their ability to communicate with various stakeholders.
The programme integrates global best practices in judicial governance with practical tools to support participants in effectively navigating and responding to the ever-evolving requirements of their sector.
Additionally, the programme serves as a platform for participants to form a leadership community and exchange experiences and insights, benefiting from the expertise of leading specialists in judicial administration.
The knowledge and skills acquired are directly applicable to their professional roles, enhancing both individual and institutional performance.
“The Najiz Programme is a key initiative in the ongoing efforts of the Royal Academy of Management to invest in national talent, this time by strengthening the ability of court presidents to lead, which will further enhance judicial performance. We are committed to providing participants with the most effective tools and methodologies and the opportunity to apply principles of adaptive leadership, empowering them to navigate future changes with confidence. The programme fosters strategic thinking, ensures operational sustainability, and adheres to the highest standards of swift and effective justice,” said Khalid Al Shaqsi, Director of Academic Affairs and International Cooperation at the Royal Academy of Management, who currently leads the programme.
The content of the three-day programme consists of more than 15 hours of intensive learning while a cohort format maximises participant engagement and provides participants with a peer network. The curriculum integrates practical applications with interactive discussions, providing participants with real-world scenarios that reflect actual working environments.
This immersive approach strengthens the decision-making abilities and leadership skills of participants, increasing their ability to contribute to the overall efficiency of judicial and administrative operations.
The Royal Academy of Management remains committed to delivering specialised development programmes across various sectors, reinforcing its dedication to empowering leadership in Oman.
