A Lesson in the Art of
Leadership
Editorial Team
If
you are seeking mentorship, inspiration, and learning the arts of
leadership and noble morals, you can find them in the person of His
Highness Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Vice-President and Prime
Minister of the UAE and Ruler of Dubai. His Highness sets a spectacular
model in leadership.
There is no doubt that each nation has its own and unique record of
achievements to be proud of. Its people can contemplate and analyze
such events to draw lessons and inspirations that push them forward. His
Highness’ personal letter to federal government employees and his re-
sponse to the invitation of an employee to attend her wedding are most
certainly gestures that carry tremendous and noble meanings that will be
kept in history records.
In its 17th issue, mGov magazine features two video reportages. The first
one is about the letter of His Highness Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al
Maktoum, praising the efforts of government employees in developing the
nation. The letter has encouraged a positive energy spirit, and clear vision,
reflecting the leader’s keenness on sharing success with the people.
The second reportage covered His Highness’ response to the invitation
of an employee to attend her wedding. His attendance was an indication
of the close ties between leadership and the people. The gesture showed
the efforts exerted by leadership to make their people happy. The people
in return show gratitude and loyalty.
In an exclusive interview with mGov magazine, Major General Dr. Ahmed
Nasser Al Raisi, General Director of Central Operations in Abu Dhabi
Police and Chairman of the MOI’s E-transformation Higher Committee,
stated that the MOI has set in place a strategic plan to manage smart and
e-services. The MOI has adopted the best international practices, and cre-
ated a call center that monitors performance and points of strength and
weakness to either enhance or address.
mGov 17th issue also includes a report on Dubai360.com. The site deliv-
ers a message to the world: you will see Dubai, the pearl of the Gulf and
Arabs from a totally different perspective. People can now see Dubai’s
landmarks from all angles and at all times.
Dubai360.com features life in Dubai, with a focus on showing aspects of
beauty and progress throughout the city, through still shots and panora-
mas of the city’s landmarks.
In another report, mGov sheds light on the latest trend used by hackers.
Trend Micro, an information security specialist, indicated that one recent
hacking trend is the use of QR code scanner feature, which is an easy
channel through which viruses can be fed to a user’s device without know-
ing at all.
In this issue, we are also publishing a diverse array of reports and local
and global news in ICT, smartphone and tablet applications and latest
mGov apps.
