You hit the nail on the head with Qatarization and what I had tried to say earlier. Assessment is key! Diamond Girl made a good point on the second piece that is needed which is accountability.
Hard working people with the desire to learn, whether they are Qatari or not, should be assessed and then given help in the areas that the assessment shows is needed.
If you have an employee that is not living up to the expectations, is not open to mentoring and advice, is frequently absent, etc - they should be accountable for their actions and if need be, let go so the position can be filled by someone who wants it.
I agree whole heartedly with Qatarization. It needs to be done right and I'm sure at some point it will be done so. I have little experience with young Qatari men outside of my job but I had a lovely young man visit my office yesterday. During the conversation, he asked me about my job and seemed to be truly interested and I was impressed with his questions. So much so I am seriously considering tracking him down and offering him an internship.
Whoami - we know you and your character. You have no need to defend yourself here in my opinion. I have seen first hand the things you have done and organized. Don't even comment on some of the above posts. Your actions speak louder than any words spoken by certain people who only have time for criticism.
