“Our system of government is based on our religion and is what our people want. Should they seek alternatives, were are ready to listen to them. We are all in the same boat, and they are both captain and crew.” ~Sheikh Zayed Al Nahyan

A true leader is not always the most knowledgeable person. One of the overrated leadership traits is established with a strong vision and lead the people to follow that vision.

When it comes to leadership traits we can learn few things from every leader. UAE has a history of many heroic leaders and one of them is Sheikh Zayed Bin Sultan Al Nahyan. Born in the year 1918 in Al-Hosn Palace, Abu Dhabi Sheikh Zayed was raised with a silver spoon. His character started building when he was a child. The desert taught him resilience, patience, determination, and self-respect. Despite the cruelty, he managed to keep his heart clean and developed a sense of compassion for people around him.

“Our predecessors did not enjoy our capabilities and resources but were still better off while we suffer on account of our shortcomings. Today we don’t adhere to the true teachings of Islam, which are based on principles of solidarity, abandonment of differences and resolution of conflicts by goodwill, frankness, and tolerance.”

The Zayed Charitable & Humanitarian Foundation which is equivalent to the Red Cross Crescent Society the foundation is one of the biggest charitable organizations in Abu Dhabi. Because of this, the country is providing relief and development assistance to other countries.

5) Stakeholder Management & Artful Communication

Every leader can communicate well but to turn a no into yes and agree upon the most critical areas is an art. Sheikh Zayed Bin Sultan Al Nahyan is known for artful communications and turning the tables in his direction with his peace talks.

 

Sheikh Zayed has this ability to bring all the people of the tribe on one page. And for this reason, he managed the stakeholder position in a strategic manner. He adopted Arabian Bedouin traditions of consultation & consensus. In an informal manner, the same principle is practiced in the council known as Majlis in an ‘open-house’ manner.

The communication system was formalized in the National Consultative Council in the year 1970. Based upon this principle in the year 1971 the Federal National Council was formed as the state’s parliament.

Sheikh Mohammed Bin Rashid Al Makhtoom is the Prime Minister and Vice President of UAE. He is also the ruler of Dubai. He came to power after the death of his brother, Sheikh Makhtoom in 2006. Since then, he has been at the forefront when it comes to introducing new reforms in governments and has taken up a host of projects to fulfill his vision of making UAE the best business country in the world by 2020.

Paying tribute to his decade long rule, we look at the ten leadership traits of Sheikh Mohammed Bin Rashid that changed the face of Dubai and UAE for the better:

1. Vision With Specific Objectives

 

Leadership is the capacity to translate vision into reality.”—Warren Bennis

His futuristic vision is probably the most important leadership quality of Sheikh Mohammed Bin Rashid. It is the vision to make UAE the best country in the world by 2021 that has derived his diligence. He quickly realized that UAE can rely no more solely on oil, and Dubai needs to undergo a revolution into an international city, that will become a haven for tourists looking for a dose of extravagant reprieve. The story does not end here. In addition to having a stellar ideology like many visionaries, he also has specific objectives and aims, which has made it easier to convert the vision into reality. He himself said, “I believe that if the vision is clear the objectives can easily be achieved.”

2. Self Confidence

Sheikh Mohammed Bin Rashid faced varying degrees of backlash from different circles when he started his overhaul of Dubai,but his self-confidence helped him overcome the odds, pursue his aspirations, and turn his vision into reality. He knew exactly what he was doing and had complete faith in his ability. Today, not only is he credited with the development that created modern day Dubai, but also that of UAE. He also oversaw the construction of the tallest building in the world, Burj Al Khalifa.

3. Innovation

Innovation distinguishes between a leader and a follower.”—Steve Jobs

Sheikh Mohammed Bin Rashid is aware of the fact that innovation reinvents industries and changes the game, which is why he is always looking to innovate in one way or another. Back in October 1999, he laid the foundation of the Dubai Internet City, a one of its kind technological hub in the region at that time. Next year, he announced the project of Dubai Media City, which was aimed at being a content and media production zone. He did not stop there and continued to launch innovative projects such as Dubai Silicon Oasis, Dubai Healthcare City, Dubai Industrial City and Dubai Knowledge City, just to name just a few.

4. Keep Learning

Leadership Traits

Reaching the top echelons of your niche does not mean that you stop learning. Learning is a continuous process and people who believe in life-long learning, are the ones who succeed. Top leaders of UAE, especially Sheikh Mohammed Bin Rashid, are no different. He learns from his acquaintances and consults with them regularly. He says, “I learn from the youngest and I am still at the beginning of the road with no arrogance.”

5. Attachment with Followers

leadership traits

There is no denying the fact that allegiance of followers towards a leader is critical, but it is equally important that leader reciprocates the loyalty. This holds true for trust and respect as well. Remember that it is not a one-way relationship but the road ends two ways. As soon as the bond between a leader and his followers start to wane, trust and respect goes down the drain, which also relieves the followers of their obligation to obey their leaders.

6. Effective Communication

Clear and consistent communication is pivotal to achieving success as a leader. As a leader, you should be able to convey your message to your followers as clearly as possible and make them understand what you expect from them. Sheikh Mohammed Bin Rashid embodies this principle to perfection. He is also a poet and author of the best-selling book “My Vision”. He also speaks his heart out on Twitter where he has accumulated more than two million followers.

7. Determination

Unlike people who wait for holidays, His highness Sheikh Mohammed Bin Rashid’s determination and resolve keeps him going tirelessly day after day, without a by break. He sheds some light on his unflinching resolve by saying, “The word impeccable is not in a leader’s dictionary. No matter how big the challenge is, strong faith, determination and resolve will overcome it.” He thinks that you cannot achieve success without a vision, determination and a viable strategy.

8. Persistence

Despite all the adversities and challenges that loomed before Sheikh Mohammed Bin Rashid, he never gave up and stuck to his guns. He transformed the governmental institutions by inducting educated individuals, providing them with ample training,and turning them into useful citizens that can contribute in turn to the development of UAE. His constant involvement in the whole process speaks volumes about his persistent approach. It is his consistency that took Dubai and UAE closer to meeting the goals of Vision in 2021.

9. Unity

“Unity is strength…when there is teamwork and collaboration, wonderful things can be achieved.”—Mattie Stepanek

United we stand and divided we fall. Sheikh Mohammed Bin Rashid understands this very well. He is a true advocate of Arab and Muslim unity. He wants to see all the people of his region united under one flag. It is his dream to see all the Arab region progress, not just UAE, and join the ranks of advanced countries. Effective teamwork is essential for success in projects, no matter how large or small they might be.

10. Take Risks

There are instances where you have to make tough decisions. You have to decide between taking the routes less traversed and achieving the unthinkable or sticking to your comfort zone. A good leader is not afraid of taking calculated risks because they know that the bigger the risk, the higher the reward. Sheikh Mohammed Bin Rashid overcame the fear of failure and took a lot of risks. It is due to his risk taking ability that raised Dubai to an internationally acclaimed status.
