Al Tamimi’s Employment team is well known for delivering engaging seminars and workshops for employers. Building on this experience and feedback from HR professionals, a new initiative was launched on 26 March 2014 called the “HR Professionals Network- Abu Dhabi”. The purpose of the initiative is to provide HR professionals with a trusted peer to peer networking forum to discuss topical issues of interest. The first meeting was well attended by HR managers from a cross section of well known UAE companies. The meeting commenced with a lively group discussion on topical issues including latest visa news, Emiratisation and health insurance. A presentation was delivered by guest speaker Ben Tobin (Adecco Middle East) on dealing with attracting top talent, staff training and development and how to manage productivity of human capital. A lot of ground was covered in 2 hours and the attendees took the opportunity to network with their peers in an informal and relaxing forum. The next meeting will be held in June and all clients are more than welcome to send their HR managers along.
