We stopped teaching like its 1985. Here's what happened.
TDT | Manama You're 24. You walk into a job interview with a global tech firm. It's your dream role. A panel of three stares back at you, resumes in hand. The questions come fast. Go-to-market strategy for the UAE. Pricing model for a new subscription-based product. A curveball on AI ethics. You're nervous, but not frozen. You've been here before. Not once or twice, but again and again over the past week. What the panel doesn't know is that you've faced these exact questions. At 10 PM, 2 AM, whenever you needed to. Not with YouTube videos or coaching classes, but with an AI tutor that's been part of your MBA journey from day one, fully integrated into your curriculum. This tutor didn't spoon-feed answers or give generic hacks. It interrogated your thinking. Pulled up real questions asked by real companies. Challenged your logic until your answers held up under pressure. It even pushed back: 'What is the risk you're not seeing here?' or 'That answer sounds safe. Do you actually believe it?' This wasn't revision, it was targeted career prep shaped around you. And by the time you sat in that interview, you were ready. Sounds like a future ambition? It's not. It's happening right now at SP Jain School of Global Management. Students are showing up sharper. Cracking interviews in half the attempts it used to take. Not because they studied harder, but because we stopped teaching like it's 1985. Learning that listens, not lectures Walk into most university classrooms today, and you'll feel like you've stepped into a time capsule. A professor stands at the front, delivering a lecture. Students take notes. Then comes the exam, the grade, the degree. A model that hasn't changed in over a century. Meanwhile, the world outside is moving at warp speed. Job roles are being reinvented. Skills go obsolete in months. AI and automation are rewriting the rules. And yet, education remains slow, standardised, one-size-fits-all. The disconnect keeps growing, and students are the ones paying for it. So at SP Jain Global, we didn't just tweak the old model. We asked: what would learning look like if we built it for tomorrow's learners? The answer was AI. Not as a chatbot or a shiny tool on the side, but as the foundation. That's how we built AI-ELT, our AI-enabled learning assistant, to become a core part of how our students learn. Supporting the UAE's vision for AI As the first country in the world with a dedicated Minister of Artificial Intelligence and with a bold National Strategy for AI 2031, the UAE is actively shaping the future of global innovation. From the vision of Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Vice President and Prime Minister of the UAE and Ruler of Dubai to introduce AI as a formal subject across K–12 schools in September 2025, to planning to issue over 100,000 Golden Visas to AI professionals, the country is investing deeply in building future-ready human capital to support the adoption of AI in the region. At SP Jain, we see it as our responsibility to carry His Highness' vision forward. Our AI-ELT virtual tutor is integrated into the learning curriculum from day one, equipping students with the skills to understand, apply, and adapt AI tools in real-world settings. As industries increasingly adopt AI across all sectors, we aim to prepare students for careers that align with this shift, ensuring they graduate with both the skills and mindset to thrive in an AI-integrated workplace. With an ambitious AI strategy and strong government support, there is no better city in the world than Dubai for a student looking to pursue a future career in artificial intelligence. More than technology. It's intent. AI-ELT wasn't built to just deliver content or run base-level quizzes. It was built to question you, challenge you, push you. It prepares you before class. Supports you after class. And sharpens your thinking when no one else is around. It takes you from two to four to six to ten. Step by step, until your thinking holds up anywhere. Imagine the confidence with which you enter class. You're energised because you're no longer scrambling to understand the basics. You've covered that with the AI already. You're ready to speak up. To debate. To make decisions. And so is everyone else. Class time shifts from what to why. From definitions to decisions. It becomes a live, intellectual workout. Faster-paced. More demanding. Infinitely more valuable. Even quiet students speak up because they've already done the hard thinking in private, with the AI-ELT forcing them to clarify and commit to their ideas. That's the real power of AI in education. Not automation. Not convenience. Not replacing teachers. But transformation. Removing the parts of education that never really worked. The lectures no one remembers. The surface-level prep. The guesswork. It's about creating thinkers, not note-takers. It's about turning classrooms into conversations. And most of all, it's about giving every student, not just the lucky few, access to the kind of deep, personal mentorship and learning that actually sticks. This is what education should have been all along. And now, it finally is.

Action Labs CEO Shaikha AlSeddiqi: Helping Businesses Thrive
At Action Labs, Co-Founder and CEO, Shaikha AlSeddiqi, and her team are all about setting the trend rather than following it. The Bahrain-based Growth Consultancy is leading the charge with AI, insight, and agility to transform business across key industries. Shaikha tells us more. Now in its third edition, Business Leaders in the Middle East brings together sharp insights from across the region. These aren't mere interviews; they're windows into how leadership is evolving in a world shaped by rapid digital transformation. Technology touches nearly every industry now, and these leaders show us how to navigate change with purpose. Before 2021, we were running a creative agency. But when the COVID-19 pandemic hit, we noticed a clear shift. More CEOs and board members started approaching us not for running campaigns, but for strategic and technical guidance. We had prior experience running a tech company so, we were able to blend that technical know-how with our creative capabilities. It became clear that there was a real need for a partner who could speak both languages, creative and technical, with a genuine interest in helping businesses grow. That's when the transition to a consultancy started to make sense. Over the past two years, we've reached several significant milestones. We've won multiple global awards, but what matters more is the impact we've had on our clients. We've helped transform several FinTech brands into market leaders, achieving million-dollar growth in less than a year; that, to us, is our biggest accomplishment.T oday, we work with some of the largest financial institutions in Bahrain and across the region. We've also launched our own FinTech podcast, Swalef Tech, which is now gearing up for its second season with a major global sponsor on board. On the tech front, we're making serious investments in AI. Our teamis incredibly passionate about it. Infact, our co-founder recently launched a regional think tank dedicated to exploring how AI can address social and economic challenges in the Gulf. It's something we're very proud of, and it reflects our long-term vision to stay ahead and create meaningful, lasting impact. One of the toughest challenges we faced was scaling. While it all looked exciting from the outside, success came with a lot of pressure behind the scenes. We found ourselves working non-stop, often competing with global firms. There were times it felt like we were living at the office. What helped us get through it was our core team. We've been together for years and have built a strong foundation of trust and support. That kind of camaraderie makes a huge difference when you're facing tough times. It helped us maintain our culture and keep going. The biggest takeaway for us was simple but powerful: if you're not evolving and innovating from within, someone else will. That mindset fuels everything we do. We constantly ask ourselves: how do we improve? How do we create more impact? How do we stay relevant and efficient? Staying agile has always helped us stay ahead. Resistance to change is human nature. People naturally cling to what they're familiar with. That said, most of our clients today are surprisingly open to innovation especially given how quickly technology is evolving. We work closely with them every step of the way, helping them adopt to new tools, platforms, and shifting mindsets. We see ourselves as one team with our clients, growing together. Our approach to data and growth and it creates a faster, more responsive feedback loop, and that's rare. AI and digital transformation are nolonger buzzwords. They're redefining how value is created, delivered, and measured. We always say that software is just software; it's all about how you use it. Many companies today are underestimating just how fast AI is moving. Some global organisations already complete 50 percent of their operations using AI, replacing human roles in the process. We're very hands-on with the latest public and beta-stage technology – both software and hardware. For us, AI isn't just a trend; it's a tool we're actively integrating into our work. We're making sure both our business model and our team are future-ready. It's a top priority for us and for our clients. We were early adopters of platforms like TikTok and have worked directly with their team for years. What surprised us was how slow some regional brands were to adapt. Many waited too long; even when the data was right there. There's still a gap in understanding how consumer behaviour has evolved. Take second-screen behaviour; it's often seen as a challenge, especially for long-form content. But it actually reveals what today's consumers are looking for: speed, ease, and personalisation. Attention spans have collapsed. If you thought you had ten seconds, now you've got two. That impacts everything: your messaging, creative execution, and platform strategy. Hyper-personalisation is no longer optional. It's expected. So we've made it a priority for all our clients, helping them turn that shift into a powerful growth opportunity. More Insights
