The forum brings together graduates of the Academy\u2019s\u00a0programmes, emerging Omani leaders, and distinguished speakers and guests from Oman and abroad to celebrate the achievements of young Omanis and their growing presence on the international stage.<\/p><p><br \/>Held to mark Omani Youth Day, celebrated annually on 26 October, the forum highlights the contributions of young Omanis across various sectors and reflects a commitment to developing national leaders capable of translating knowledge and experience into tangible, lasting impact.<\/p><p>His Excellency Dr Ali bin Qassim Al Lawati, President of the Royal Academy of Management, emphasised that Omani Youth Day is an occasion not only to celebrate achievements, but also to recognise the vital role of young people in shaping the Sultanate of Oman\u2019s future. He noted that Oman\u2019s Renewed Renaissance, under the leadership of His Majesty Sultan Haitham bin Tarik, is built on its people, and that young Omanis are its driving force, bringing the energy, ambition and ideas that will carry this national journey forward.<\/p><p>His Excellency said:\u00a0\u201cThroughout our history, successive generations of young Omanis have contributed to the nation\u2019s progress through their determination, capabilities and belief in their country. Today, we see inspiring young leaders, innovators and entrepreneurs representing Oman\u00a0internationally with confidence and pride. They are helping to shape our present and, God willing, build an even brighter future.\u201d<\/p><p>His Excellency further stressed that empowering young people requires more than providing opportunities; it calls for investing in their potential and entrusting them with meaningful responsibilities.<\/p><p>\u201cOpportunities alone do not create leaders. We must place our trust in young people from an early stage, equip them with the knowledge and tools they need, and empower them to take on real responsibilities. At the Royal Academy of Management, our role is to help them translate ambition into leadership capabilities, and those capabilities into achievements that make a measurable difference to people&#8217;s lives and the national economy.\u00a0Realising\u00a0Oman Vision 2040 requires more than ambitious plans; it requires people who believe in its aspirations and possess the capabilities to turn them into reality.\u201d<\/p><p>Reflecting on the forum\u2019s theme, His Excellency explained that \u201cFrom Oman to the World\u201d embodies RAM\u2019s confidence in the ability of young Omanis to establish a meaningful international presence, compete across sectors and markets, and contribute to global progress while remaining firmly rooted in their national identity and values.<\/p><p>The Royal Academy of Management advances these ambitions through a range of specialised programmes and initiatives, including the Zad Initiative for Promising Omani Leaders, the Leadership for Startups Programme, and Etimad, the national leadership development programme for middle and senior Omani management in the private sector. Alongside RAM\u2019s wider portfolio of programmes, these initiatives aim to strengthen leadership capabilities, broaden perspectives and empower participants to translate their aspirations into meaningful achievements.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t                <\/div>\r\n                    <\/div>\r\n        <\/div>\r\n                                <\/div>\r\n                    <\/div>\r\n        <\/section>\r\n                <section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-38a74a3 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default ct-header-fixed-none ct-row-max-none\" data-id=\"38a74a3\" data-element_type=\"section\">\r\n            \r\n                        <div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default \">\r\n                            <div class=\"elementor-row\">\r\n                    <div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-4b75ed6\" data-id=\"4b75ed6\" data-element_type=\"column\">\r\n            <div class=\"elementor-column-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\r\n                            <div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap\">\r\n                \t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-c50c2b3 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"c50c2b3\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\r\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\r\n\t\t\t<style>\/*! elementor - v3.18.0 - 20-12-2023 *\/\r\n.elementor-widget-image{text-align:center}.elementor-widget-image a{display:inline-block}.elementor-widget-image a img[src$=\".svg\"]{width:48px}.elementor-widget-image img{vertical-align:middle;display:inline-block}<\/style>\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-image\">\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"2560\" height=\"1707\" src=\"https:\/\/ram.gov.om\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/ZAK05718-scaled-1.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full wp-image-23383\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ram.gov.om\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/ZAK05718-scaled-1.jpg 2560w, https:\/\/ram.gov.om\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/ZAK05718-scaled-1-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/ram.gov.om\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/ZAK05718-scaled-1-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/ram.gov.om\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/ZAK05718-scaled-1-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/ram.gov.om\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/ZAK05718-scaled-1-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/ram.gov.om\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/ZAK05718-scaled-1-2048x1366.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 2560px) 100vw, 2560px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t                <\/div>\r\n                    <\/div>\r\n        <\/div>\r\n                                <\/div>\r\n                    <\/div>\r\n        <\/section>\r\n                <section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-8584940 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default ct-header-fixed-none ct-row-max-none\" data-id=\"8584940\" data-element_type=\"section\">\r\n            \r\n                        <div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default \">\r\n                            <div class=\"elementor-row\">\r\n                    <div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-54aae52\" data-id=\"54aae52\" data-element_type=\"column\">\r\n            <div class=\"elementor-column-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\r\n                            <div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap\">\r\n                \t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-94ef7e8 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"94ef7e8\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\r\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-text-editor elementor-clearfix\">\r\n\t\t\t\t<p>\u201cThis forum goes beyond celebrating individual success. It provides a platform for young leaders to exchange experiences, learn from one another and forge partnerships that will contribute to shaping Oman\u2019s future,\u201d His Excellency added.<\/p><p>The forum features two panel discussions exploring the international experiences and achievements of young Omanis. The first focuses on their participation in international forums and platforms, highlighting how they represent the Sultanate of Oman, communicate its identity and contribute to challenging misconceptions about the country. The second explores the journeys of youth-led Omani enterprises that have successfully expanded beyond the domestic market into regional and international markets, showcasing their experiences, achievements and aspirations for further growth.<\/p><p>An accompanying exhibition showcases a selection of youth-led Omani projects, offering participants an opportunity to engage directly with entrepreneurs and innovators and learn about their experiences in business development, innovation and expansion into new markets.<\/p><p>The forum concludes with a ceremony honouring distinguished graduates of RAM\u2019s programmes whose achievements have created meaningful and lasting impact. The recognition considers their contributions to leadership, their ability to inspire others and build effective teams and communities, and the measurable and sustained impact of their achievements. It also highlights the role of their learning experiences at RAM in supporting their professional achievements and wider contributions.<\/p><p>The Omani Youth Forum forms part of the Royal Academy of Management\u2019s ongoing efforts to build an active and connected alumni community that fosters continuous learning, collaboration and knowledge exchange. Through these efforts, RAM seeks to strengthen the contribution of young Omani leaders to national development while enhancing their readiness to compete and succeed on the international stage.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t                <\/div>\r\n                    <\/div>\r\n        <\/div>\r\n                                <\/div>\r\n                    <\/div>\r\n        <\/section>\r\n        \t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u2013 Under the patronage of His Highness Sayyid Fahr bin Fatik Al Said, the Royal Academy of Management (RAM) is marking Omani Youth Day 2026 by hosting the Omani Youth Forum under the theme \u201cFrom Oman to the World\u201d.
