Aamal Company is committed to promoting sustainability and ethical business practices, its Chief Executive Officer Rashid bin Ali al-Mansouri emphasised Tuesday as keynote speaker of the ‘Dean’s Lecture Series’ hosted by Carnegie Mellon University in Qatar (CMU-Q).
During the lecture, which was attended by CMU-Q leadership, as well as faculty, students, and staff, al-Mansoori shared his insights on Aamal’s ESG business strategy, including its four key pillars: business ethics and transparency, serving the communities, empowering the workforce; and protecting the environment.
Al-Mansoori said: “At Aamal, we are committed to promoting sustainability and ethical business practices. Our journey toward a better, more sustainable future starts with understanding the significance of ESG principles.
“Through this lecture, we reinforce our belief that integrating ESG into our business strategy is not just a responsibility, but also a remarkable opportunity to create positive change for our company and our community.”
Aamal’s involvement highlighted the company’s dedication to learning and collaboration. Contributing to initiatives such as this that promote sustainable business practices means that Aamal can lead by example to support the advancement of a more sustainable and socially conscious business landscape in the region.
Al-Mansoori's leadership and expertise play a pivotal role in Aamal’s thinking. His visionary approach and commitment to ESG principles serve as a beacon for others in the industry and are instrumental in positioning Aamal as a leader in responsible business practices in the region, according to a statement.
This commitment to ESG is not just a corporate responsibility; it is a testament to Aamal’s dedication to creating a positive impact on society and the environment, now and for future generations.
Dr Michael Trick, dean of CMU-Q said: “At CMU-Q, we prepare our students to be leaders in business, technology, and science. We deeply appreciate Mr al-Mansoori’s perspective into incorporating environment, sustainability, and governance into corporate strategy, and our students in particular will benefit from his insights.”
