Commercial Bank Receives Excellence in Leadership Skills Award at the First Edition of the Qatar Private Sector Nationalisation Awards 2026

Commercial Bank received the Excellence Award for Leadership Skills Development at the inaugural Qatar Private Sector Nationalisation Awards 2026, organized by the Ministry of Labour. The awards were presented by H.E. Sheikh Saud bin Abdulrahman bin Hassan bin Ali Al Thani, Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of State for Defence of the State of Qatar, alongside Dr. Ali bin Samikh Al Marri, Minister of Labour. Group Chief Executive Officer Stephen Moss and EGM and Chief Human Resources Officer Nasser Abdalla Al Harmi attended the ceremony on behalf of the Bank.

The ceremony brought together representatives from across the private sector to recognise organisations and individuals contributing to the development of Qatar's national workforce. It also highlighted the importance of collaboration between government and private sector employers in creating pathways for Qatari talent and supporting the objectives of Qatar National Vision 2030.

Stephen Moss, Group Chief Executive Officer of Commercial Bank, said:

"We are honoured to receive this recognition and grateful to the Ministry of Labour. Developing national talent is central to building a strong and sustainable private sector in Qatar, and this award belongs to our Qatari colleagues and to everyone across the bank who works tirelessly to support their growth. It is also a reminder of the responsibility we share as employers to create meaningful careers and prepare the next generation of Qatari business leaders. We remain committed to playing our part."

Nasser Abdalla Al Harmi, EGM and Chief Human Resources Officer of Commercial Bank, said:

"The value of nationalisation lies in the contribution people are able to make and the opportunities they have to progress. At Commercial Bank, we want our Qatari colleagues to see a clear future for themselves within the organisation, with the experience, responsibility and support to continue advancing. This award recognises that commitment and encourages us to keep moving forward."

The Awards also promote effective nationalisation practices and encourage greater participation by Qatari talent across the private sector.
