OBJECTIVES
In Saudi Arabia, young people under 25 years of age constitute over 50% of the population. This offers an incredible opportunity to harness, shape, and drive human talent to make a genuine difference in achieving Saudi Arabia’s development goals.
In line with the Saudi Vision 2030’s goal of increasing women’s participation in the workforce, Jeel Tamooh ensures an equal number of men and women in every edition.
Jeel Tamooh draws from BCG’s broader strategic insight into skills development, including BCG’s Future Skills Architect Framework, to build a bank of skills relevant to Saudi Arabia’s current and future economic needs.
Jeel Tamooh is designed to teach and empower next-generation industry leaders. It creates future-ready skills to prepare youth in Saudi Arabia for the fourth Industrial Revolution. The program addresses a potential mismatch between the skills that the workforce possesses versus what is required on the job. It also builds bridges between key employers and young talent through a variety of initiatives, including virtual career fairs.
SUCCESS AND IMPACT
Since 2019, Jeel Tamooh has welcomed more than 300 students from Saudi Arabia’s top universities, with 150 young women as part of its edition. It has strengthened leadership, professional, and interpersonal skills among young future leaders.
The program is supported by industry leaders such as LinkedIn, Harvard Business Review (HBR) Arabia, the Capital Market Authority, Riyad Bank, Banque Saudi Fransi Bank, Ma’aden, Seera Group, the Public Investment Fund (PIF), and many others. It also has served as a fast track to rewarding careers within BCG itself.
