Sheikh Mohammed also announced the new government strategic approach that will lay the foundations of work for the next 50 years.
The new government strategic approach includes five pillars:
1. The government work will be led by major transformative projects and not just long-term strategic plans.
2. The next cycles of change will be flexible and fast (between six months to two years), unlike the previous strategic cycles which used to last five to 10 years.
3. Priorities for sectors will be determined and followed by identifying clear transformative projects. Ministerial teams will be created to implement these projects and there will be reliance on national talents who have deep understanding of the field and the mechanism of change in determining the new government's priorities.
4. There will be a shift from individual responsibility of ministries to shared responsibility among the field teams. Performance contracts will be signed with these teams to implement projects. Under the supervision of the Cabinet.
5. There will be incentives and promotions based on performances of the field teams and their ability to implement the projects set by the Cabinet.
