Discover the secret of
'Quality made in Germany'!
'Quality made in Germany'!
When Iraqis think of Germany, they think about state-of-the-art technology, high-quality products and a modern infrastructure. Often the question arises: How did Germany achieve this level of development?
The answer is simple and challenging alike:
Germany is a "poor" country: no oil, no gas, no gold. There is only one natural resource: humans. Fortunately, humans are the key to success.
The secret of 'Quality Made in Germany" lies in 3 steps of development:
1. Transform human resources into human capital: Education of the youth, qualification of the work force, continuous professional training for leaders and managers.
2. Build effective teams: Committed leaders, managers and staff, who cooperate in strong teams towards a common goal.
3. Establish an effective and efficient system: well organized operations inside an institution, where waste - of time, of money and of human energies - is minimized, and all activities streamed to generate value.
The AGI Management Training Academy provides leadership and management Trainings, which are based on worldwide recognized and scientifically proven methods and tools, how to develop the human infrastructure and system to achieve academic and operational excellence.
AGI is a private training and consultany company, based in Bonn, Germany.
We are
specializing on Iraq since 2009.
The letters AGI are the abreviation of our company name 'Access Germany Iraq'. When the company was founded in 2009 by a group of German and Iraq friends, we wanted a name that represents our mission to connect experts from both countries. The Iraqi-Arabic pronounciation of AGI أجي means "I'm coming over!"
Throughout the last 15 years, more than 450 Iraqi AGI clients have been coming to Germany for trainings in various fields. Upon their return to Iraq, many raised to higher positions. They still continue to benefit from our
personal coaching about career development,
managerial skills and development of their institutions.
During many consultancy visits to Iraq, we
gained indepth insight into the Iraqi system. Decades of engagement in the international higher education sector have allowed AGI to build a
large, deep-rooted network in the German and Iraqi academic community.
We are the people you can trust: committed to serious work and caring about long-term results for our clients, .
And we love to celebrate their success together with a good barbecue in our beautiful villa garden in Bonn, Germany, or a dish of Masgouf in Iraq.
