Helping our people achieve their full potential We cultivate a high-performance culture that enables our people to grow, lead and contribute to ADNOC’s strategic goals and daily operations. Our human capital approach focuses on attracting, developing and retaining diverse, skilled talent across levels of seniority. By aligning performance with business aspirations, we seek to empower employees through clear role expectations and defined career pathways – supporting both individual growth and organizational success. We invest in creating a highly skilled, diverse and capable workforce to drive performance. Our Group Human Capital Directorate sets ADNOC’s people strategy, policies and guidelines in line with our corporate strategy and operational needs. It is responsible for overseeing the attraction, recruitment, mobility, development, succession and retention of talent, as well as the professional growth and development of employees. We have a company-wide performance management system in place. Employee key performance indicators are individual and meant to align with our business objectives so employees understand how they can contribute. We promote a culture that enables and energizes our employees. We have adopted a holistic approach to attract, develop and engage our people. The system is supported by an annual rewards program that incentivizes excellence and contributes to a performance-driven culture. We make ADNOC employees aware of potential career paths through centralized role profiles detailing technical and leadership progression pathways. This enables managers across levels to engage with employees on what key competencies are required for them to develop and advance within the company. In 2023, we started a program to develop our high performance and accountable culture. In 2024, we expanded this effort through the ADNOC Culture Masterclass, delivered by over 60 trained culture facilitators. The masterclass reached more than 3,500 managers – representing 82% of middle management – and received a 94% satisfaction rating. It was supported by the Culture Dashboard, featuring over 30 organizational metrics to assess cultural and performance outcomes. Throughout 2025, ADNOC intends to increase the coverage of middle management trained on ADNOC Culture Masterclass and extend the initiative to high-potential youth across ADNOC. Equipping our people to lead the AI transformation At ADNOC, we are equipping our people to lead the transformation as we advance our ambition to become the world's most AI-enabled energy company.
