Dual-Certificate Leadership Development in Riyadh

Strong leadership is the cornerstone of corporate success, especially in Saudi Arabia’s rapidly evolving business landscape. ESTC & Actumea Academy’s dual-certificate leadership development program blends global best practices from France with deep Saudi market insights. Participants graduate with two prestigious certificates—one from ESTC and one from Actumea Academy—signaling their mastery of leadership theory, emotional intelligence, and strategic execution.

Crafting a Strategic Vision

The journey begins with immersive workshops on strategic planning. Participants learn to conduct SWOT analyses tailored to Saudi industries like finance, telecommunications, and energy. Through hands-on exercises, they practice setting SMART objectives, mapping stakeholder influences, and anticipating market trends driven by Vision 2030 initiatives. Real-world case studies—from leading banks launching new digital products to public-sector entities modernizing services—ground strategy in practical scenarios. By the end of this module, leaders can articulate a clear roadmap that aligns team efforts with organizational goals.

Enhancing Emotional Intelligence

Leadership isn’t just about strategy—it’s also about people. Our emotional intelligence labs draw on French coaching techniques to build self-awareness, empathy, and resilience. Activities include stress-management simulations where participants navigate high-pressure scenarios, and peer-feedback circles where they practice giving and receiving constructive input. Guided by Actumea coaches, learners develop active-listening skills and learn to interpret nonverbal cues. As a result, they foster trust, diffuse conflicts, and create a positive work climate that boosts retention and productivity.

Mastering Change Management

In a market characterized by rapid transformation, effective change management is essential. ESTC & Actumea Academy equip leaders with frameworks such as Kotter’s 8-Step Process adapted for Saudi cultural contexts. Participants role-play stakeholder briefings, communication campaigns, and pilot launches. Coaches emphasize transparent communication, early stakeholder engagement, and recognition of quick wins. By practicing these steps in a safe environment, leaders gain confidence to guide their organizations through mergers, technology rollouts, or regulatory shifts with minimal disruption.

Earning Dual Certification

Upon successful completion of the program, participants receive two certificates:

  • ESTC Certificate (Saudi Arabia): Recognized by Saudi enterprises and government agencies as a mark of local relevance and competence.
  • Actumea Academy Certificate (France): A testament to adherence to rigorous French training standards and international best practices.

These dual credentials enhance professional credibility, open doors to cross-border opportunities, and affirm a leader’s commitment to continuous growth.

Building an Ongoing Leadership Community

Graduates join quarterly leadership circles—peer cohorts facilitated by Actumea coaches. These gatherings offer a platform to share challenges, exchange best practices, and explore emerging leadership trends. Members also gain access to exclusive webinars and an online resource library featuring white papers on topics like digital leadership and sustainable growth in Saudi Arabia.

Demonstrating Measurable Impact

To prove real-world value, ESTC & Actumea Academy track key performance indicators before and after training. Metrics include team engagement scores, project success rates, and progress against strategic objectives. Detailed impact reports highlight improvements—such as a 25% increase in cross-department collaboration or a 30% reduction in project delays—providing clear evidence of ROI.
