His Highness Sheikh Mohammed Bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Vice President and Prime Minister of the UAE and Ruler of Dubai, said in a video with the hashtag “FlashesofLeadership” on Instagram, “The real leader is the one who seeks the interests of his people and exerts all efforts to achieve them.”
Sheikh Mohammed stressed, “Leader has to give a hand to his assistants, followers and his work team.
“He has to train them, educate them and spend time with them until they become the way he is and reach the top they are aspiring to.
“The leader also has to urge them, give them trust and responsibility,” Sheikh Mohammed added.
Earlier, Sheikh Mohammed affirmed that there is no finish line for the race for excellence, and that everyone has to take risks in their life, but the greatest danger is that one never takes a risk.

Sheikh Mohammed stressed that he and his team fulfil their promise when they promise something.
Sheikh Mohammed said, “I always tell my team, in the race for excellence there is no finish line and this becomes more realistic every day… When we promise, we fulfil the promise… We all have dreams, but only the leader can transform them into reality. We all take risks in life, but the greatest danger is not to take risks at all. "
Sheikh Mohammed said that it is not possible for him to agree to implement a project or embody an idea into reality if it does not draw his attention, or if he is not 100% convinced of it.
Sheikh Mohammed said, “When I talk about what our fathers did and reached and see our small role and what we have achieved, I feel enthusiastic… Follow-up and support is required to develop the country...”
Sheikh Mohammed said he does not work alone, but is part of a large work team including young people who do tremendous work.
“We have a vision. A project or idea is not implemented unless I am 100% convinced of it, and in case I am convinced, I do not stop.”
Sheikh Mohammed launched the hashtag #FlashesofLeadership on his Instagram account to share part of his life, practical experiences, and leadership vision with the public.
