Benghazi – Huda Al-Muqirhi, a professor in the Department of Economics at the University of Benghazi, will lead an academic webinar titled “The Human Bridge: Leadership, Psychological Capital, and Diplomacy in a Fragmented World.” The event is organized by the International Academy of Management in North Africa and the Middle East, which is affiliated with the global Academy of Management (AOM).
This webinar is part of the University of Benghazi’s efforts to promote community and academic activities involving its faculty on an international level. Al-Muqirhi represents the Department of Economics as a member of this academy, which includes more than 20,000 members from 120 countries.
The discussion will focus on linking contemporary economic concepts with organizational behavior, psychological capital, and diplomacy. It aims to deepen understanding of the growing challenges facing organizations and economies in today’s complex global environment. The webinar emphasizes that modern economic and organizational challenges cannot be explained solely by numbers and policies. Deeper insight into human factors—such as trust, psychological capital, and the quality of workplace relationships—is essential.
The event notes that despite increasing economic and technological connections, today’s world faces rising fragmentation at organizational, psychological, and cultural levels. This directly affects productivity, cooperation, and economic sustainability.
The webinar seeks to present a new perspective that reconnects economics with the human dimension. The concept of the “human bridge” blends effective leadership, psychological capital, and diplomacy as key elements for building stronger and more sustainable institutions. The organizers stress that the future of economic and organizational development depends on building bridges of trust and human understanding among individuals, institutions, and cultures.
