Dubai is taking further steps to raise the government's service standards and productivity.
His Highness Sheikh Hamdan bin Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Crown Prince of Dubai and Chairman of The Executive Council of Dubai, unveiled the "Partners for Pioneering" initiative, which will see top government entities like DEWA, Dubai Police and RTA share knowledge and experience to support other government departments.
It's to ensure that all stakeholders advance with the same speed and efficiency towards achieving common goals.
"Greater harmony between all government departments will unlock new synergies that advance our shared goal of maintaining Dubai’s position as a leading global destination," Sheikh Hamdan said.
"The launch of the ‘Partners for Pioneering’ initiative marks a new era for elite entities in the Dubai government team. It will see us go further and faster to promote close cooperation and partnership between various entities to take our performance to new heights. Real leadership requires effective partnerships, where all players advance with the same speed and efficiency towards achieving common strategic goals."
The progress of the initiative will be closely monitored by the Executive Council of Dubai.
