The third module of the National Federation Management Programme for General Secretaries and Executive Directors, concluded yesterday (JUNE 20) at the Bahrain Olympic Committee’s Sports Training and Development Section premises at Manama Club in Juffair.
The five-day workshop, which saw 25 sports officials from different sports federations taking part, was presented by training and development specialist Mahmood Yateem. The second batch of graduates will receive their certificates in November this year.
Developed by the World Academy of Sport (WAoS), the programme meets the specific training needs that National Sporting Federation Managers face.
It’s split into three modules, each of five days duration. The first module topic is strategy, national and international stake holder identification and management.
The remaining two topics are defining and connecting the athlete path way to federation operations, as well as federation commercial, event operations and integrated planning and measurement.
Consultation with the Bahrain Olympic Committee has led to agreement on the dissemination of standardized best practice through this programme while will lead to greater success and sustainability across the National Sporting Federations.
Participants would achieve several benefits from attending the programme, such as developing management skills specific to their sporting organization.
Other gains is understanding how the Olympic Committee can support the administration of National Federations through standardized process and requirements, besides learning the management principles required to successfully manage the athlete pathway in their sport.
