MoHERI launches ‘Inspirers of Change' initiative to promote positive institutional culture
Muscat – The Ministry of Higher Education, Research, and Innovation (MoHERI) has launched a pioneering initiative titled 'Inspirers of Change', aimed at fostering a culture of motivation, positivity, and excellence within its institutional work environment.
The initiative was inaugurated last week under the patronage of H E Professor Dr Rahma bint Ibrahim al Mahrouqi, Minister of Higher Education, Research, and Innovation. The launch aligns with the ministry's broader vision to modernise institutional culture, strengthen employee engagement, and enhance overall organisational performance.
Designed to highlight individuals who serve as role models within the ministry, the initiative seeks to recognise employees who demonstrate a positive attitude, offer meaningful contributions, and actively drive change. By celebrating these efforts, 'Inspirers of Change' aims to inspire staff across all departments and levels to contribute to a more dynamic, inclusive, and transformative work environment.
The launch ceremony was attended by senior officials and staff members. It featured inspiring presentations by employees who shared personal stories of overcoming challenges and contributing to a culture of resilience and productivity.
Interactive sessions at the event focused on the human element of organisational change, underscoring how individual initiative, collaboration, and interpersonal engagement can significantly impact institutional success.
On the occasion, the ministry also unveiled the official visual identity of its Change Management Team, which will oversee the implementation of the initiative and ensure its progress throughout the year as part of a comprehensive work plan.
In its initial phase, the initiative will prioritise enhancing internal communication by sharing motivational messages and real-life success stories from within the ministry. Platforms such as WhatsApp will be used to help build a more connected and appreciative workplace culture, fostering a strong sense of belonging among employees.
MoHERI confirmed that 'Inspirers of Change' marks a significant step forward in its efforts to create a supportive, innovative, and forward-thinking organisational environment. The initiative supports the Ministry's strategic objectives to invest in human capital and encourage staff to actively contribute to its mission and vision.
It also aligns with the broader goals of Oman Vision 2040, reinforcing national efforts toward sustainable institutional transformation and excellence in public service.
