PICTOGRAMS
Çatalhöyük, the first place in human history, also contains the first examples of the term
pictogram, which is today called “painting a concept.” People living in Çatalhöyük in the
year 7400 BC started the unwritten history by painting hunting, festivities, wildlife and other
important events on their walls. For this reason, we have designed the pictograms of the Konya
2021 Islamic Solidarity Games in accordance with the drawing concept of that day, taking
inspiration from these murals painted about 10,000 years ago.

started, drills were conducted and intervention methods were revealed.
The facilities for the 5th Islamic Solidarity Games were completed 1 month before the games
started and prepared by eliminating any shortage. At least 1 test competition was held at the
facilities where the 5th Islamic Solidarity Games were played. After the test competitions, all
kinds of deficiencies identified have been corrected and the facility has been made ready for
the competition. Practice events were carried out at every unit, including security at every
facility, each 3 days of total 15 days before the 5th Islamic Solidarity Games started and the
results of these practices were reported. The deficiencies were completed quickly and the
problems were solved.
5 people, including technical staff, security officers, health officers, transportation officers,
control and installation officers, have been kept ready for 24 hours in each facility for
disruptions and deficiencies that would occur during the 5th Islamic Solidarity Games.
Immediate response to any problems or setbacks were made.
The historic Konya building opposite the old train station, which is located centrally and
accessible to everyone, where guests will be welcomed and meetings will be held before the
games begin, was determined to function as the 5th Islamic Solidarity Games Coordination
Centre. The opening of this place was made by our Minister of Youth and Sports and HDK
members.
Then, all directorates moved to Konya Bosnian Youth Center, which is located at the top of the
Konya Metropolitan Municipality, which is a larger place because of the fact that athletes of the
5th Islamic Solidarity Games will remain close to the Games Village and the number of teams
had increased. All administrative activities continued here.

connect to Deputy Coordinator Veli Ozan Çakır. Thus, the unit was in coordination with the
units such as transportation, accommodation, which were located under this management
and related to Attendance Services.
The general purpose of the Audience Services Department is to welcome the audience
sincerely and to provide all necessary information and support to the audience. Thus, it
was aimed for the spectators to enjoy both the sports competitions and to experience the
Turkish hospitality.
The function of the Audience Services Department, which serves under the Assistant
General Coordinator responsible for Foreign Affairs, has been multifaceted and has
facilitated the provision of audience services operations in addition to the creation of the
audience services strategy. These tasks were;
The compilation of attendance services information for the call centre has been provided.
The content of the audience section of the website has been created.
The formation of audience reception teams and tables has been provided
The guidance of the spectators in the competition area has been provided.
The Audience Services Department has continued its activities with three sub-units in
order to fulfill these tasks.
The Planning and Strategy Unit acted as a brain within the department. A manager who is
experienced in audience services and knowledgeable in planning and project management
was appointed to this department. The task of this department covered not only the planning
of the management of operational affairs during the games, but also the preparation of
works for the audience before the games.
The appropriate volunteers were selected for the unit and specific trainings were given to
the volunteers.
English and Turkish audience manuals were prepared. This manual contained information on
many topics such as transportation, competitions, competition facilities, accommodation,

Guiding the spectators who came from outside the city and did not know around Konya has
been a very important task of the Audience Services Unit. For this purpose, the unit set up a
contact desk at the airport, bus station and railway station to meet the spectators coming
from outside the city. Considering the foreign spectators coming from abroad, staff at the
airport desks were especially selected to be able to speak English.
Although Konya Airport is an international airport, it was also considered that many caravans
and audiences would come through Istanbul, Ankara and Antalya. For this reason, at these
airports with direct flights to Konya, desks connected to the Audience Services Unit have
been established and redirections have been made.
It has been ensured that the spectators can reach the city and their hotels by the shortest
and most comfortable way without any problems.
Emergency plans to be monitored against possible reversals have been created and
implemented together with the transportation and accommodation units.
Manuals, brochures and maps prepared for the audience were distributed and necessary
information was provided.
One of the most important tasks of the Audience Services was the entrances and exits of
the competition areas where the spectators would be crowded. In this area, the work of
the Audience Services Unit started half an hour before the opening time of the doors for
the spectators and ended with the closing of the doors after the spectators vacated the
competition area.
The traffic flow of pedestrians was managed at the entrances and exits.
It was ensured that the spectators reach their seats without any problems.
Support has been provided for disabled spectators to be able to reach their allocated
seats.
Supervision of the implementation of facility rules such as clean facility policy and no
smoking areas has been carried out.

MEDALS
On the front of the medal, the “Games Logo” and the “Meram flower” patterns were
placed. The flower, which has thousands of different varieties in bright shades of yellow
and orange, has an elegant appearance with its soft, velvety leaves. It is a one-year plant
that emits a pleasant smell around. Throughout history, it has been referred to as a sacred
flower variety and has represented rebirth. The logo and the pattern are surrounded by
the “Selçuk Star”. The ISSF logo and the name of the games are on the back side of the
medal. The logo and name are surrounded with a wheat spike.
In the inner part, the “Selçuk star” surrounds the logo and pattern. The eight stars are
shown as a symbol of the eight gates of paradise, the eight corners of the star expresses
eight different characteristics. The Selçuk motif symbolizes mercy, compassion, patience,
keeping secrets, generosity, loyalty, gratitude and truthfulness with its eight different
corners.
Another element that completes the medal is the wheat spike. The spikes in the
outermost frame represent Konya, the granary of Anatolia. Just like the Meram flower, it
emphasizes rebirth and fertility.
On the back side of the medal, the ISSF logo and the name of the games are located,
while the outer frame is surrounded with a wheat spike, as on the front.
A total of 2600 medals, including 800 Gold, 800 Silver and 1000 Bronze, took part in the
312
Konya 2021
MEDALS
ceremony under the direction of the directorate. The medals were made of sturdy and
high quality material. There were no problems in the storage and distribution of medals
to the facilities. Many facilities have rooms where medals, mascots and flowers can be
stored, and these materials have been safely stored.
MEDAL CEREMONIES
The hostesses dressed in caftans took part in the medal ceremonies. Medals, mascots
and flowers were kept ready on the tray before each ceremony to be presented to the
athletes. The most common problem encountered in medal ceremonies was that the VIP
who will give the medal could not be determined until the last moment. It was important
for convenience to determine the VIP who would give the medals and gifts before the
ceremonies in advance. The VIP, who would give the medals and gifts, was informed
about the ceremonial protocol of the ceremony. Medals and gifts were given to the
athletes in accordance with the ceremonial protocol.
At the beginning of each medal ceremony, the athletes took place on the podium with the
announcement and music, and the VIPs took their places on the stage with the athletes.
After the presenter announced the bronze, silver and gold medalists, respectively, the VIPs
presented their awards. The national anthem was chanted and a photo shoot was held.

of the problems that occurred. In addition, due to the large size of the airport, we have
provided hassle-free service so that our guests can safely reach their destinations.

Some countries preferred this airport because there are direct flights to Ankara from some
countries. We have provided transportation to Konya by welcoming our guests with the
welcome desk and team we have set up here. There was no charge for this. In addition, we
provided transportation service to the airport upon return and enabled them to leave the
country comfortably.
• STATE HOSPITAL
Two central hospitals were arranged and designed for the 5th Islamic Solidarity Games:
Karatay City Hospital and Selçuk University Medical Faculty Hospital. Since Konya is large in
terms of land, this was the way to provide faster intervention and transportation. In addition,
all hospitals in Konya were made ready for any required first aid.

• HUMAN RESOURCES
In this context, the assignments, approvals and official works and transactions of all
personnel employed by our Ministry in human resources services, other institutions and
service procurement have been carried out. General Coordination activities were carried
out with 153 staff who were assigned continuously. In addition, 175 cleaning staff and 550
security staff were employed with the recruitment of services to be limited to the Games
period (August 1-20, 2022).
363
Konya 2021
LABOUR
The main purpose of human resources was to determine the workforce required for the
perfect functioning of the 5th Islamic Solidarity Games, to provide the workforce with a
team of paid employees, contracts, volunteers and to provide the workforce with all the
support necessary for games.
The Organization of the 5th Islamic Solidarity Games has provided the manpower in need
from many different sources, such as in large sporting events of similar nature.
The GSIM staff formed the most important human resource for the organization. With
the experience and expertise in the area of the municipality and Governorate, units and
institutions served in many critical areas for the 5th Islamic Solidarity Games. With academics
and experts from universities, they gave significant support to the organization of the
5th Islamic Solidarity Games, especially in education and consulting matters. When the
Organizing Committee could not meet the key personnel it needed from these sources, it
employed professionals specialized in their field from outside and eliminated this problem.
The personnel employed for the 5th Islamic Solidarity Games by the GSIM or the Organizing
Committee which we mention about here, the personnel assigned for the organization
from public institutions, organizations and universities, and the personnel assigned from
Sports Federations have all been under the absolute control of the Organizing committee.
For this reason, these people will be referred to as games staff.
Sponsors have also been another source that provides workforce to the organization.
In particular, all the sponsors who have been established together in order to make a
strategic contribution have offered an expert workforce to the organization before and
during the games. It was envisaged that sponsors would mainly provide services in mobile
communication and TV broadcasts, and a significant part of the work force to be used in
these areas were also covered by sponsor organizations. The workforce obtained from
external sources directed by the organization will be briefly referred to as secondary
personnel.
Volunteers, on the other hand, constituted the largest human force of the games. The
volunteers, most of whom decamped during the games, were distributed among the
functional departments and received the necessary formation trainings and played an
important role in the success of the organization during the games.
The Human Resources Department serving as bound to the Assistant Coordinator being in
charge of general administrative affairs, along with the planning offices of other departments
within the organizing committee, calculated the necessary labour force for the games and
covered the allocation and requirements of this inner force.
The Human Resources department carried out its activities with six sub-units to fulfil these
tasks.
The main task of volunteer management was to ensure that the 5th Islamic Solidarity Games
364

organization received the maximum benefit from the volunteers labour force. For this
purpose, the tasks of volunteer acquisition, selection of suitable volunteers, placement in
the relevant departments, ensuring the continuity of the volunteers gained and evaluating
their performance were performed.
• Application Collection
• The quality and quantity-based volunteer requests from all departments were evaluated
and the volunteer candidates were directed to the departments in accordance with
these requests.
• Volunteers were provided with uniforms and accreditation in accordance with
departmental requirements.
• The related insurance processes of the volunteers were carried out.
• The performance and working conditions of the volunteers were monitored and the
necessary changes were made in the necessary conditions.
• The trainings of the volunteers were conducted and followed up.

Relations have been maintained with non-tender institutions and companies that provide
personnel.
• Translation Unit
The Translation Unit has been provided with personnel with a high level of foreign language
level for tasks such as attache, translator and interpreter, which were needed in different
fields of activity of various commissions of the organization.
The examination commission that would organize and evaluate the foreign language
exams and necessary interviews were established by Konya Selçuk, Necmettin, students
and lecturers selected from the Department of Foreign Languages of Karatay University
and persons designated by the GSB Department of Foreign Relations.
The Personnel Affairs Unit has been responsible for carrying out the legal affairs of the
personnel. The issues that the unit would be interested in within the scope of the games
were as follows:
Employment contracts
Job security
Labour legislation
The primary task of the unit was to meet the needs of paid staff and volunteers who would
take part in the games. The unit planned and managed the needs for the accreditation,
uniforms, accommodation, nutrition, etc. of the workforce provided.
• Training Unit
The unit provided training for volunteers along with the hired paid staff. More specific and

more professional trainings such as IT software training have been provided for paid staff.
On the other hand, a more general training was provided for the volunteers according
to the department they would work in and their abilities. The unit provided training to
volunteers in the following areas:
The main purpose of the paid staff of paid employees and subcontractors personnel and
training unit for games was to provide the orientation of the units like the Software specially
prepared for the Games by the Organization committee.
• Volunteer Training

Konya 2021
LABOUR
As the Directorate, we prepared a work plan about a year before the start of the games
in the form of what we would do and how in the long term. In line with this work plan,
we conducted studies to make sure that the 5th Islamic Solidarity Games would be made
public in Konya, and that the public will be announced through social media and other
communication bodies and to promote and to be announced to large audiences. For this,
many activities were carried out (setting up a stand, planting trees, mass participation and
promotions on important days and weeks, distribution of leaflets, participating in many
sports activities, etc.)
In line with the work schedule, we created a volunteer application portal that was intended to
contribute to the games from all over the country and outside our country. We successfully
completed the interview processes with the appointment procedure on certain days and
times by a commission that created the applications made up to the specified calendar. At the
interview stage, we used many criteria from volunteer candidates (Foreign language level,
diction, experience, communication skills, licensed athlete, national athlete, solidarity, use
of accessories, driver’s license and many others.) We carried out theoretical and practical
trainings for candidates who successfully completed the interview process online and face-
to-face by professional educators under the name of “Volunteering Training” in accordance
with the work schedule. We identified our leader candidates and completed the training
processes. After the training process, the clothes required for the volunteers, etc. the place
where they would stay for the distribution of their personal needs and accommodation was
determined. Before the Games, volunteer candidates were invited for Volunteer Orientation
and the Games process started.
The large group of trained and well-equipped volunteers, all the participants, athletes,
managers, press, etc. in the game process worked day and night for the presentation of our
country within a sense of brotherhood and solidarity. An army of volunteers was formed at
a very high level during the interview after the intensive application. Their foreign language
levels, their knowledge of the sports, and their desire and willingness to work were our
strongest points for us. This made a great contribution to the successful and trouble-free
passage of the games. During the games, volunteer friends performed all the tasks assigned
on the field without any problems, besides, we think that the relations with the participants
made a great contribution to the point of good impression on behalf of our country. Even
in moments of crisis, calm behaviour and solution-oriented thinking and practices played
a big role in success. During this process, the number of volunteers in the table served
collectively during the games.

APPLICATIONS
• HEALTH AND SAFETY
On August 9-18, in scope of the fifth Islamic Solidarity Games held in Konya, with the leading
of the provincial police headquarters participation in all the meetings was obtained, with all
relevant directorates consultation meetings were held each day, within the planning stage
constant communication with the appointed personnel of the Ministry of youth and sports,
Konya Provincial Directorate of youth and sports and the Konya Metropolitan municipality
was managed.
During the event, the accommodation, food and basic needs of about 3000 additional
police personnel who came to our city from other provinces to be assigned to sports
facilities, accommodation areas, traffic regulation services, protection services and general
security measures were considered and planned. Plans of the alternative routes to be used
have been created and our traffic elements have been positioned on these routes and at
important points. Protection panels have been created for all the VIP’s who would come to
our city, the places they would stay, the routes they would use and all the places they can
go, and the necessary coordination procedures have been carried out to work as a whole
with escort services. Based on the principle of uniformity, all of our staff performed their
duties in one type uniform. During the stays, transportation operations and competitions
of the countries with enmity between them, the utmost decency was considered. Again, in
transportation activities for training, competitions and social events, a means of protection
has been provided to the related vehicles by our personnel.
Necessary security measures have been taken for the NOC members of the countries,
Government officials and all accompanying guests, as well as for the referees and press
members of the competitions from the moment they arrived in our city until they left.
Measures were taken with the principle of 24/7 in all areas where they were located during
the day with the points where they accommodated. The Security Coordination Centre was
established as the first step. Meetings were held with AFAD, Fire Brigade, 112 and Provincial
medical personnel. All sports complexes were inspected together. Essentially, deficiencies
were identified in these feasibility studies and requests were forwarded to the relevant units.
369
Konya 2021
APPLICATIONS
Prior to the games, training planning was made for the personnel who received reinforcements
to our city, our elements and all of the private security guards, and information seminars
were held for the organization. A public employee or a sworn translator who was fluent in
the languages deemed necessary for possible judicial issues was requested. A police station
has been established in the Games Village and all movements in the village have been
monitored. On the other hand, double-stage checkpoints were established at the entrance
of the Games Village together with ISSF officials and prohibited the entry of prohibited
substances and non-accredited persons into the village. In addition, the license plates of
the vehicles on duty were also accredited. Accreditation procedures have been followed
meticulously and all possible failures were prevented.
As the Security Directorate, it was easier for us to master the subject from our own perspective
due to both the institutional memory and the motor reflexes provided by similar studies. In
addition, the necessary feasibility studies were carried out well before the process and the
benefits of planning the measures were seen to a large extent. As a result of the meetings
held with the institutions and thanks to the above-mentioned issues, the process was
successfully managed.
In general, we can say that the biggest factors in achieving success were mutual consultations,
strict compliance with the chain of command and the advantage provided by corporate
memory. Because all of the facilities were mastered in a short time, measures were created
in this direction and the results were reached with the exchange of ideas. As our weaknesses,
due to the fact that accreditation procedures use a manual system instead of up-to-date
technological systems, foreignness has been attracted and has created obstacles for us in
terms of using time. It would be more appropriate to update these transactions on a single
item and in accordance with the requirements of the era. Moreover, it has been assessed
that the lost time and labour may pose a threat due to the healthy implementation of all
operations and incomplete landing on the site. Because one of the most important issues
was that security measures were carried out on the spot and on time by going to the field.
Another issue was that directorates definitely had to be in elbow contact, but some
directorates were provided with an appropriate environment in order to carry out
the operations carried out in accordance with the principle of compartmentalization
meticulously. Otherwise, information pollution may have arose. The inclusion of experts in
the field in the process has shown us that the transactions would take place easily. In this
way, a better quality process was able to be put forward. Because it has also been observed
by us that the returns were in this aspect. As the process got longer, it was noticed that the
rules and criteria determined were tried to be extended or ignored. In order to represent our
country in the best way on an international platform, the necessary common sense was to
be fully implemented.
Finally, it was obvious that the ISFF delegation had mastered its subject. Due to the
equipment and experience from the past, they have informed us about their expectations
and the important nuances that should be. However, while the delegation should have been
involved in the process at the beginning, it was seen that it was involved with the start of
the games. This late inclusion problem has caused the measures taken to change over time.
It should be remembered that the socio-economic situations and cultural infrastructures
of each country may differ. As a matter of fact, this has been the main reason for some
irreconcilables.
In general, there have been no negative incidents in terms of security before and during the
events and we have tried to represent our country and our institution in the best way.

Health:
During the preparation process actual participation was provided to the meetings held by
the General Coordinator of the 5th Islamic Solidarity Games without regard to the concept
of overtime. Needs and expectations were determined. Since the fields determined by the
General Coordinator for the games were not allocated vehicles by the general coordinator
during the preparation process, it was decided that the residential areas where field teams
would be stationed in, the medical rooms, the 112 Ambulances on the field would be
supervised by traveling with our personal vehicles.
By determining the special services provided in Public, University and Private hospitals,
which hospital the case would be taken to in emergency or special cases, and how many
minutes it would be possible to reach the health facility, were simulated electronically.
1 Ambulance with at least 3 medical personnel in each facility and a team consisting of at
least 1 doctor and 1 medical personnel was planned for each site in the facility.
By determining the location for the clinic to be established in the Games Village, a mini
hospital was formed with a separate entrance, emergency room, first aid, observation, staff
rest rooms and 3 outpatient clinic rooms, where physiotherapy services were provided in
the rooms on the upper floor. Since the location determination could not be made until the
last days due to the indecision of the general coordination office, it could not be opened for
service on the planned date (20.08.2022).
It was ensured that the Games Village “Emergency Service”, was established in accordance
with the Emergency Unit standards contained in the “Communiqué on the Application
Procedures and Principles of Emergency Services in Health Facilities with Beds, by the
experienced staff of Konya Numune Hospital. Examinations and PCR tests were performed
24/7 at the Games Village clinic. The service was provided in accordance with the privacy
rules in the Games Village hospital.
A list of material needs to be used in the field and health rooms was created and requested
from the coordination office.
The staff work schedule was created by taking into account the games calendar from
the coordination office, the number of physicians and nurses determined as a result of
negotiations with the representatives of the federation and the country. Although the last-
minute changes made in the games calendar were not notified to us on time, there was no
disruption due to the experienced teams, even though there was a risk in health planning.
The number of personnel needed was studied in detail and the minimum number was
determined. By determining the dates where the intensity would be, it was aimed to provide
maximum benefit with minimum number of days, minimum number of personnel.
The assigned personnel were divided into 2 groups as hospital staff and field staff, taking
into account the institution and field experience they were assigned to. In the meetings
organized separately for 2 groups, job descriptions were made with the introduction of
Konya2021; possible risks and actions to be taken in case of crisis were explained.
3 Zones were created for the problems, needs and ease of management of the assigned
121 Medical Personnel in the field. 3 Field Coordinators were determined and the personnel
working in the regions were kept under constant control.

Our directors provided information on issues such as the course of the cases, where they
went, when they were discharged and their clinical status by sharing them instantly with the
country’s authorities. Every morning at 07:30, the cases of the previous day were reported,
but no one requested this information.
A separate VIP area was created in the emergency department of Konya City Hospital, which
was designated as the main hospital, and examination, follow-up and treatment of athletes
and country representatives were performed accompanied by volunteers assigned to these
areas. Konya2021 flags and orientation plates were placed for the participants to easily find
these areas. Referrals to the City Hospital were provided with 112 ambulances in necessary
cases. Although those who were discharged were transported by the transportation
directorate, there were delays, and they were often transferred to the village of Games with
the facilities of the city hospital.
In order to accompany the patients admitted to the City Hospital during their examinations
and treatments, the volunteers directorate was contacted and a sufficient number of
volunteer staff who speak foreign languages were ensured to work in the City hospital on
a 24-hour basis in the relevant field. It was ensured that appointment priority was given to
the admitted patients in order not to be kept waiting for imaging procedures.
During the games, the teams stationed in the competition areas, the Clinic teams of the
Games village, the on-duty teams of the City hospital were regularly inspected with our
field coordinators, their shortcomings were eliminated and the motivation of the staff was
ensured.
Staff work schedules, working hours were meticulously followed and active working hours
were recorded in the table on a daily basis. At the end of the games, the active working
hours of each staff member were reported to the general coordinator.
The items delivered by the General Coordinator to our directorate as a result of our
notification of needs were removed to the warehouse of our Provincial Health Directorate
after the end of the games. There was no clear information received from the Coordination
Office and the Provincial Directorate of Youth Sports about how these items would be
evaluated.

GENERAL INFORMATION
The establishment of the General Coordinatorship of the 5th Islamic Solidarity Games and

Foreign Relations and NOC Services Directorate, started its activities with the appointment
letter of our minister. At this point; the Directorate of External Relations and NOC Services
started its work with the recruitment of office employees. In the Directorate of Foreign
Relations and NOC Services, the 3 most commonly used languages were preferred in order
to make communication faster and more understandable. However, the working and official
language of the games has been announced in English. Arabic and French languages were
added as additional languages for the NOC Presidents and employees of the country who
do not speak English. We made the choice according to the fact that the employees in
the unit are professionals and people who have previously worked in such organizations,
their language level was at a high level and the conditions of being born abroad. First, we
started to work as 1 Director, 1 Assistant Director, 1 English, 1 French, 1 Arabic translator,
a total of 5 staff. While English was the international language used by the participating
countries, Arabic and French were added to contributing to better quality service, faster
communication, more understandable communication and efficiency. Employees were
provided with salaries that were not excessive and did not strain budgets. The salaries given
to us were divided into 2 or 3 equal parts and efforts were made to provide employment for
more people.
Meetings were held with universities and language schools located in Konya and both
games were explained and students studying here were allowed to participate in the team
in order to gain a better experience. The most successful students studying at these schools
were identified and included in the team. The most successful students of the Department
of Foreign Relations and NOC Services Directorate, Konya Selcuk University Department of
Translation, Konya Necmettin Erbakan University Department of English Teaching, Konya
KTO Karatay University Department of Translation were included in the team. An authorized
chef was appointed for each language. In addition, one person was authorized for ticketing
and visa affairs.

determined earlier should have been provided to work. However, due to the conditions
and circumstances, this was not achieved.
• Although not holistically, a single directorate could not keep the interaction and
coordination with others in balance when it works planned and regularly within itself.
Therefore, all directorates should support each other with the same sensitivity and
interaction. Unfortunately, some directorates could not be effective enough in joint
work.
• Routine meetings between the directorates should have been regularly started long
before, and the impact of these meetings iss crucial so that the staff know each other
and know each other’s areas of duty.

very clear way (Flight information, clear flight times, Flight code, list of names, etc.) and
the necessary information should be received more clearly and completely. Among the
directorates, especially the VIP directorate and the FOREIGN AFFAIRS directorate should
have transferred clear information and ensured compliance with our Transportation
directorate, but while trying to provide services completely unprofessional methods were
used.
All of our directorates, especially our general director and assistant directors, worked in
harmony and we think that they were successful by turning bilateral relations into advantages
by providing beneficial workflow. All that could be done in all material and spiritual matters
was achieved together in harmony.

• AIRPORT APPLICATIONS
Meetings were held 3 times with the Istanbul Airport, which would be used the most
intensively, Istanbul Sabiha Gökçen, Ankara Esenboğa and Konya Airport management,
which would also be used intensively. The problems that would occur and the problem
analyses were discussed. Help desks and reception teams were placed at these airports.
Domestic flight transfers and visa corridor convenience were provided for the guests arriving
safely from Istanbul. For guests arriving at Ankara Esenboğa Airport, they were welcomed
by the welcoming team and led on to buses held for them, ensuring safe transportation to
Konya. In addition, a reception team of 20 people was kept waiting at Konya Airport for 24
hours and transfers were provided without causing any disruption.
One-on-one contact was established with each country and the arrival lists of the caravans
were taken online via the system. Each country was assigned a responsible friend and thus
monitored. The departures of each caravan from their countries and their transportation to
Konya were followed one by one. A 24-hour team effort was carried out, taking into account
the country’s time differences. Apart from minor errors, there were no other problems that
affected the games and caused grievance. Operations were successfully completed with
the team.
As the function of planning, the plan was the tool that indicated what needed to be done to
achieve objectives within the planning process. Planning is to decide in advance what to do,
how to do it, why, when and where to do it, and who would carry it out. Therefore, planning
refers to a process, and the plan represents a result. In the planning function, issues such as;
409
Konya 2021
APPLICATIONS
information collection, analysis, making assumptions, making predictions and foresights,
determining options, making decisions, etc. are used come to the fore.
The joint decision was made by discussing how to use planning resources efficiently.
Planning is a process of choice and decision. Accordingly, the selection process and
characteristics of the activities to be carried out, materials to be taken and materials to be
used have been meticulously selected.
Planning is a future-oriented process. The process started by putting forward a very good
plan in order to make the best possible way to create a benefit in the future, sustainability
and promotion. This planning was made for all areas and directorates.
Plans should be flexible and dynamic. Having the plans made flexible and resulting precisely
was of utmost importance. In the planning, all the dynamics of Türkiye, the participating
countries and the Islamic world were revealed and care was taken to ensure coordination.
The vision and mission were well-established, providing better quality and more dynamic
business management. By explaining the technologies to be used and the philosophy of the
games well, it was made instrumental in doing better quality work.
A good plan was made to ensure regular communication and coordination between
managers, helping to make the best decisions and good practice results were established.
Good planning facilitated the transfer of authority.
For each individual and team to work in the 5th Islamic Solidarity Games the vision and
mission of the Games was well explained to each employee why we had to succeed. This
also brought us success in the games.
The duration and timing of the planning were considered very carefully. In addition,
sensitivities were frequently expressed about time management and its application.
The planning and coordination was very well defined and clearly identified on what we
would focus and how we would decide.
• Among the objectives set at each level of the working groups, joint work was carried out
with other stakeholders decisively to achieve the overall objective.
• Attention was paid to the fact that the goals were measurable.
• Alternative paths were determined to achieve the objectives. At this stage, the ways in
which and by what means we could reach the situation or result that was decided to be
410
Konya 2021
APPLICATIONS
reached in the future en determined.
• Alternatives were created and the right to choose among them was given. It was ensured
that the right alternative was chosen among other choices.
• The division of labour was done very well and perfectly coordinated teams were formed.
• Authorization and responsibility were given to local employees and then they were
tracked.
• Management unity was achieved in all areas. This brought us success. Activities that
serve the same purpose were carried out by managers within the framework of a plan
and program and no disruption was caused.
• Finally, the work was well-controlled and timely measures were taken to resolve the
problems.
• TECHNOLOGY
Within the scope of the organization, the use of domestic hardware and software was
preferred for the timing, scoring and result systems service. The most important difference
of this organization compared to the international multi-sports organizations organized
in previous years was that the sports federations participating in the Games used the TSR
products they owned or provided by leasing and with work in harmony with the domestic
and national software that was locally developed. In organizations held in previous years,
TSR products were leased through international companies and significant costs were
encountered.
EYS software was developed with domestic and national facilities in order for the employees
working within the organization to carry out their work and transactions faster and more
effectively.
This software, which was developed according to the requirements that arose as a result
of the analysis studies conducted before the games period, was completed in a period of
411

about 8 months. All intellectual and industrial rights of this developed software belong to
the Ministry of Youth and Sports of the Turkish Republic.
Software. The NET software language was developed on MSSQL database systems. Data
loss was prevented by providing web service integrations for data exchange with other
software. This software was developed in accordance with the Personal Data Protection
Law No. 6698.
• Event Registrations
• Fixtures Management
Along with the personnel working in the local organizing committee, users were also
identified to the heads of delegations of the participating countries. In this way, users were
enabled to enter the information of the people in the caravan coming to Konya from their
own countries.
Live broadcast graphic applications were made by developing domestic and national
software in all sports competitions to be produced by the broadcaster within the scope of the
organization. All the graphics provided for the TV broadcast were designed in accordance
with the HD broadcast quality specific to the organization.
412
Konya 2021
APPLICATIONS
The sports fixture information of the competitions was created by the field experts and
entered into the software as data. The result data of the competitions were transferred
to the software according to the official results after the end of the competitions. By
establishing digital web service integration between the TV Graphics and Result software
and the website belonging to the organization, the results were decoded konya2021.com

Introduction
The Sponsorship Program of the 5th Islamic Solidarity Games was one of the most important
tools in terms of providing strategically important resources such as financial resources,
materials, services and technology needed by the event.
For this reason, it was positioned as a separate department and was planned to be carried
out by expert teams.
The Sponsorship Program of the 5th Islamic Solidarity Games focused on the optimal
provision of not only financial revenues, but also contributions, information and technology
transfer. The sponsorship strategy was based on the principle of mutual gain from sponsors
and proper procurement of these four main resources, which were critical for achieving
organizational goals.
Thanks to the same sponsorship revenues, many products and services required within
the framework of the Organization of Konya the 5th Islamic Solidarity Games, such as IT,
telecommunications, transportation, office supplies, food and textiles, were met with the
help of sponsors.
The sponsorship marketing strategy was based on understanding with a limited number
of sponsors in order to provide special opportunities to sponsors, create synergy and a
partnership relationship by establishing close relationships.

beyond the contracts made with sponsors who were happy to work with Konya the 5th
ISLAMIC SOLIDARITY GAMES, it was possible to produce different projects. Konya the 5th

• TICKET SERVICES
• TICKETING
• Introduction
The ticketing department affiliated to Marketing and Communication was one of the
revenue generating projects. Since there was no main revenue generating source such as
sponsorship, the main goal of the department was to maximise participation in Konya the
5th Islamic Solidarity Games.
The main responsibilities of the ticketing department were divided into 3 separate sections,
covering planning, sales, advertising and promotion.

distribution and customer service, making use of the existing infrastructure of experienced
companies was the most efficient solution.

HERITAGE
Cultural heritage is a selective process that requires social consensus. Institutions, the media
and society can mediate the inheritance of people, places and related objects and events.
To understand the inheritance processes of modern sports in Türkiye was the purpose. In
the last 150 years, from the 19th century to the present day when modern sports began to
enter Türkiye, in order to understand the factors that influence the development of sports
in the country, by taking a combination of the important steps in the history of sports,
important events in the history of the country and the world, and the main developments in
the world of international sports a study was carried out to distinguish the periods.
The cultural heritage value of sports is revealed in the venues and related events and
objects that we associate with highly qualified and successful sports people, our identity
and memories.
In the study of historical and social analysis, sports people who have cultural heritage value
have been inherited by giving their names to sports facilities, building statues of them in
public spaces, giving their names to parks, streets, league seasons. Among the items that
will carry the sports heritage to the future in Türkiye, sports museums are the ones that
can systematically preserve the sports heritage and pass it on to subsequent generations.
The establishment of a sports museum in our country from an academic point of view,
the inclusion of sports as a subtitle in existing museums in different fields, the opening of
archives and special collections to the public through digital platforms will improve the
sports heritage. Revealing the different disciplines at the intersection of sports, evaluating
the tourism potential of sports and sports heritage in a way that will attract the attention
of a wide audience will also create resources and motivation for the preservation of sports
heritage. Besides all these, the spread of sports in our country and the continuation of sports
will be the most important factor that will produce, enrich and carry our sports heritage to
the future.
The approach of sports in terms of cultural heritage has been shaped in the early 2000s in
England and America, which can be considered as the cradle of modern sports. “Sports as
a cultural heritage”, which has started to find a new place among academic circles in the
world, is attracting new attention in our country as well. In recent years, studies in the field
of sports historiography, which goes beyond the descriptive studies in our country, and
sports sociology, which is fed by this, provide a valuable accumulation for the consideration
of sports as a cultural heritage. However, studies that approach the subject of modern
sports purely from the point of view of cultural heritage by evaluating this accumulation
are rare. The reason for this is that although sports have been inherited by society, the state
and institutions, it has only been established in recent years as an important part of cultural
life in everyday life, as a result of which society has been warned more about sports and
awareness has recently increased.
The works of Traditional Sports Federation, founded in our country in the 1990s, the
efforts of the Civil Initiative in our country causing sports activities like archery, javelin and
wrestling to emerge, the Etnospor festival which is the traditional sports organization, with
the Traditional Sports Games Symposium of Turkish People and the World Nomads Games
held in Kyrgyzstan, the Nomads war games held in Hungary, the Hun and Turkish

HERITAGE
origin lineage “Assembly” including equestrian performances, and the HDH-IAA Historical
Archery World Championship; thanks to such wonderful sports organizations, traditional
sports have re-gained existence and started to appeal to people. In line with “the Convention
for the Protection of the Intangible Cultural Heritage” adopted in 2006 by UNESCO (United
Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization), in 2010 the main Turkish
sport wrestling and the rituals and accessories formed around it “Kırkpınar Oil Wrestling
Festival” was also accepted on “the Representative List of the Intangible Cultural Heritage
of Humanity”*. The inheritance of traditional sports and the interaction of modern sports
with the social, political and economic portrait of the country have a depth that can create
headlines for future studies.
It has been determined that there are 4 dominant “themes” that directly affect and shape
sports and its development in the country during the 150-year period. Modern sports have
entered our country with the modernisation that started during the Ottoman period, they
have developed and institutionalized with the principle of volunteerism. However, since the
1930s, this development has been subjected to the intervention of the state and sports have
become the field of action of the state. Since the 1950s, state intervention has begun to
soften, on the other hand, with the legalisation of professionalism in sports, there has been
a new opening in the field of sports. Influenced by the development of neo-liberal policies
implemented in the country after 1980, sports have become an industry and have settled
into everyday life as such. These developments constitute the starting point of the period
titles summarised with 4 main “themes” as “modernization”, “statism”, “professionalism”,
“neo-liberalism”. These periods also reflect the social, political and economic processes
that Türkiye is going through. However, the main determinant in the determination of
these ”themes” is the direct impact they have on sports and sports life in the country. The
proclamation of the Constitutional Monarchy II in 1908 triggered a political, economic and
cultural social transformation. The Law on Societies promulgated in 1909 also became a
part of the Code of Principles adopted in 1876, which gave the right and freedom to form
associations, and strengthened the legitimacy of sports clubs and their place in public life.
The first formation of Besiktas Gymnastics Club started in 1903. Osman Pasha’s sons and
the young people of the neighborhood gathered in the garden of Osman Pasha’s mansion
in the Serencebey district, the Medina Guard of the period, and did sports activities such
as gymnastics, wrestling, weightlifting, pull-ups with and without tools. The students
of Mekteb-i Sultani (Galatasaray High School), which was a leading institution in sports,
have carried out various activities in athletics, swimming, gymnastics with and without
instruments, rowing, tennis, hockey, scouting. Football also attracts the attention of students
thanks to the football clubs founded by the British and minorities in Istanbul one after the
other. Finally, in 1905, a club was founded with the participation of young people named
Asin Tevfik Sonumut, Reşat Şirvani, Cevdet Kalpakçıoğlu, Abidin Danver, Kamil under the
presidency of Ali Sami Yen in the fifth grade. The Sports Club becomes an institution where
both educational sports and football were performed. In 1907, Fenerbahce was founded
by Ziya Bey, Ayetullah Bey and Necip Bey in Kadıköy Moda, one of the heavyweight centres
of football in Istanbul. Another important development that followed the Law on Societies
enacted in 1909 was experienced on the subject of the Olympics. Baron Pierre de Coubertin
also visited Istanbul in 1907 during his trip to convince countries to become members of
the Olympic Committee. In Istanbul, he met Selim Sirri Bey (Tarcan), a sports lover who
played an important role in spreading Swedish gymnastics in the Ottoman Empire, and they
agreed that Selim Sirri Bey would establish the Olympic committee when the conditions of
the country allowed. The Olympic Committee was re-established by Selim Sırrı Tarcan, Ali
Sami Yen and Burhan Felek after the declaration of the Republic. Despite the difficulties of
530
Konya 2021
HERITAGE
financial conditions, athletes were sent to the 1924 Paris Olympics, to which the Republic
of Türkiye was officially invited, in the fields of athletics, fencing, cycling, football and
wrestling.
Physical education and sports activities that started to develop in the meadows, in the
gymnasiums of schools began to move to stadiums at the beginning of the 20th century.
Sports fields and facilities are important both because they are identified with the sports
performed, and because the facilities reflect the architectural culture of the periods in
which they were built. They both contain social codes related to the period, and ensure
that the encounters and events they witnessed are preserved in the memory of society.
PROFESSIONALISM IN SPORTS
Despite the strict state policy in sports that has lasted since the 1930s, the development that
will bring irreversible changes to Turkish sports has been “professionalism in sports”, which
first started in football since 1952 and is supported by law. II. In Türkiye where it began to
approach the West in economic, social and political senses and adopt liberal policies after
World War II, on the request of liberating sports, Professional sporting, in football which
was the fastest growing sport among the people from the mid-1940s, beginning among
the football players, brought out the economic size of football in Türkiye and made the
capital of sports more precise including football at the top of the list. In this section, the
change in the country’s sports along with professionalism is discussed.
It has been mentioned that the media, which is one of the important shapers of life through
newspapers, radio, TV and Internet channels today, has a parallel effect on inheritance to
the sports industry. In addition to football, which occupies the most important place in
the sports world of Türkiye and has now become industrialized as a spectator sport, there
are other sports that are developing far from the eyes and cultural heritage values arising
from these areas. Large exhibition spaces may be required for museum collections to be
displayed as required. For this reason, although most museums have large collections, they
can only exhibit a part of the collections because they do not have a large exhibition area
or because not every existing object is compatible with the theme and scenario of the
museum (F. DİLEK GÜNGÖR October 2017).

the state that holds the trust of Anadolu Selçuklu tolerance, solidarity and understanding
of the capital, SEMAH show, the mystical music festivals, international sports events,
exhibitions and symposia, and cultural values and rich with a young population and strong
economy for their guests is a unique attraction with the motto “the entire Islamic world in
sports”. To strengthen international peace and harmony, to develop the unity and solidarity
between the peoples and member states of the Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC),
to upgrade the level of the Islamic world sports movement without any discrimination to
the Olympic level with the principle of “an amazing Sportive Year in Konya”, and with the
desire to entertain and host elite athletes and sports communities of the 56 member states
of the organization of Islamic Cooperation on four continents who will participate in the
2021 Islamic Solidarity games, as the volunteering unit directorate of the organization;
in this great organization where the spirit and climate of brotherhood and solidarity will
dominate our volunteering staff fulfilled their volunteering missions taking part between
the dates of August 9-18, 2022, at the 5th Islamic Solidarity Games held in Konya within
units and positions such as sports, facilities, accommodation, transportation, media, foreign

affairs, VIP, accreditation, games village, health, information processing.
As the Directorate, we prepared a work plan about a year before the start of the games
in the form of what we would do and how in the long term. In line with this work plan,
we conducted studies to make sure that the 5th Islamic Solidarity Games would be made
public in Konya, and that the public will be announced through social media and other
communication bodies and to promote and to be announced to large audiences. For this,
many activities were carried out (setting up a stand, planting trees, mass participation and
promotions on important days and weeks, distribution of leaflets, participating in many
sports activities, etc.)
In line with the work schedule, we created a volunteer application portal that was intended to
contribute to the games from all over the country and outside our country. We successfully
completed the interview processes with the appointment procedure on certain days and
times by a commission that created the applications made up to the specified calendar. At
the interview stage, we used many criteria from volunteer candidates (Foreign language
level, diction, experience, communication skills, licensed athlete, national athlete, solidarity,
use of accessories, driver’s license and many others.) We carried out theoretical and
practical trainings for candidates who successfully completed the interview process online
and face-to-face by professional educators under the name of “Volunteering Training” in
accordance with the work schedule. We identified our leader candidates and completed
the training processes. After the training process, the clothes required for the volunteers,
etc. the place where they would stay for the distribution of their personal needs and
accommodation was determined. Before the Games, volunteer candidates were invited
for Volunteer Orientation and the Games process started.
We need to have a large army of trained and equipped volunteers to all participants in
the games process, athletes, managers, press, etc. During the games, they worked day
and night with the spirit of brotherhood and solidarity in the promotion of our country.
After intensive application, a volunteer army was established at the base level during the
interview process, both foreign language levels and sports information and their desire
and willingness to work was our the most powerful gain. This made a great contribution
to the successful and trouble-free passage of the games. During the games, volunteer
friends performed all the tasks assigned on the field without any problems, besides, we
think that the relations with the participants made a great contribution to the point of
good impression on behalf of our country. Even in moments of crisis, calm behaviour and
solution-oriented thinking and practices played a big role in success. During this process,
the number of volunteers in the table served collectively during the games.

Our Ministry of Sports, Provincial youth sports directorate, Metropolitan municipality and
other institutions and organizations, universities, federations, other stakeholders, many
elements that we could not count yet were our source of strength. Our needs at the point
of transportation, accommodation, food, harmony, travel-culture and in many others
have been sufficiently obtained. In this way, as volunteers, we have enabled the games
to pass successfully by using these advantages during the games. During the games, we
have created a great source of motivation for our volunteer friends with activities such as
concerts, entertainment, sports games, cultural trips, conferences with the participation of
the Ministry of Sports in recreational activities.
In order to keep the demographic dynamics sufficiently alive on a provincial basis in which
country and city the games will be held, the ISSF Delegation should make a little more
effort to obtain better harmony with the volunteering units, although their intentions
and thoughts in maintaining their strict rules and attitudes have a sportive purpose, we
think that the purpose of contributing to the climate of solidarity and brotherhood of the
games should not be forgotten.

• COMPETITION LOCATIONS
Sports Facilities:
12 sports facilities were used in all of the games held in 24 sports branches.
RECOMMENDATIONS
• The budget allocated for the organization affects the working power a lot. For this reason,
the games budget can be increased and managed better, both in terms of creating more
human resources and more professional colleagues.
• During the period when the games started, there were problems for a certain period
of time because the transportation planning was not working well and late planning
was made. This problem left a negative impression on some participants in some of the
games. This situation disrupted the functioning of all directorates. Despite everything,
our team has taken part next to the transportation directorate in every field and shared
the workflow. A better transportation plan could have been developed.
• We think that it will make the organization easier by strengthening the ISSF Team in the
next Games and appointing 1 responsible in that area to each directorate.
• In the meetings held during the games the requests should also be presented in a pre-
planned manner and as a scheme to the transportation. A system that seems complex
becomes even more complex during the games.
• When the transportation directorate was asked to participate in the meetings held, it
should be ensured that the transportation directorate is available. Transportation is a
unit that has to make a separate plan every second that competes with time. Of course,
the ISSF officials are aware of this, but they demand their wishes in order to save the
moment, but they have to spend their time there not being able to perform many other
tasks. This is why the ISSF can appoint a separate officer to the transport directorate so
that the duties can be performed more quickly and regularly.
536
Konya 2021
RECOMMENDATIONS
• The way to increase success and gain reputation in the areas related to the transportation
directorate is to provide vehicle allocation to each caravan, having foreign language
speaking hosts in the vehicles and informing the directorate of information of the
caravans much earlier will make the transportation directorate’s job easier as well as
make it comfortable in its caravans.
• Despite the 5th of the organization, there were difficulties due to the lack of an output
report of previous organizations, the lack of a written document on the expectations
and wishes of the federation, as well as the inability to express wishes verbally in a clear
language. It is also a separate question mark how the federation, which cannot present
its wishes and expectations, inspects which area according to what and criticizes it even
though it does not specify its wishes. Sharing the information and documents of previous
games will contribute to making a more comfortable game a reality.
• Entrance control was carried out with the accreditation card for the use of the
restaurant. Because of this, it has been mentioned that the officials also benefit from the
restaurant, and the situation that the athletes and officials benefit from the restaurant
together has arisen. There have been difficulties in preventing this situation. The use
of applications such as barcode, fingerprint, etc. will prevent this situation to occur in
future organizations.
• There were problems with some of the anthems we requested from the participating
countries. There have been problems with the anthems of the countries found because
some countries have never sent their anthems. Some countries sent their anthems orally
with no melody. It will be better to collect anthems and flags in a pool by the ISSF.
• There have been difficulties due to the fact that communication between directorates
has not been established decently, some directors have made the wrong choice, some
directors have not shared information due to their personal egos and have excluded
those who were not of themselves.
• More professional methods can be tried. From the first communication with the countries
and their caravans, an application- and program-supported and early information
system should have been established to ensure the flow of information related to all
transportation.
• The ISSF team was a little confused by the last minute requests of the games. The
appointment of the people who are responsible in each area 3 months ago and the fact
that they start working with the responsible people in these areas will help to create a
more successful games period. The fact that ISSF officials showed up when the games
started and conveyed their wishes shows a unprofessional management approach.
• The change of the responsible person made by the ISSF Delegation when the games
started revealed the crisis of the interlocutor. It will increase the success if the
responsible people are clear people until the end of the games. It is very important that
the interlocutors and those responsible are chosen carefully.

PROTOCOL VOLUNTEERS
• The rules that are followed in diplomacy, in correspondence between states, in official
ceremonies, in meetings between heads of state and their representatives...
• The whole set of ceremonial and formal rules of conduct in public life…
PROTOCOL - WHY
• The representative nature of the manager in public life is revealed by compliance with
the protocol rules. Because 34% of the manager’s success is accounted for by the quality
of representation (protocol), 33% by knowledge and skills, 33% by personality.
• Protocol rules are a set of rules that managers and all employees must formally comply
with and apply in public life. Knowing the rules of the protocol and to comply with these
rules is an obligation in terms of personal, institutional and national representation and
respectability in institutions and international relations. Protocol rules are the protector
of individual, institutional and national dignity.
• As important as etiquette rules are in social life, protocol rules are also more important
in business life or in official settings.
• Protocol in Management = Rules of Official Etiquette
• No matter how intimate a friend the subordinate and superior are in their private life, they
must always follow the rules of protocol in their official relationships in management.
For example, a subordinate who calls himself Big Brother in his private relations should
call him Mr. President in his office or at a meeting.
• Always address your manager with respect. Call him Mr. President or Mr. Governor
according to his title or just call him Gentleman.
• When you enter your manager’s office, greet him by saying Respectfully Mr. President or
Respectfully Sir.
• When your senior enters the room while you are sitting, be SURE to straighten yourself
up.
• Make sure that the button of your jacket is buttoned when entering.
• Do not sit down until your manager says Please sit down, or if you need to sit down,
please sit down by saying ...... (Governor, Coordinator, sir).
• Do not cross your legs in front of your supervisor or superiors while sitting.

• If your superior and manager do not forward their hand to shake when saying welcome
or goodbye to you, do not also forward your hand in advance.
• As a subordinate; always move to the left of your superior when sitting, standing or
walking.
• Do not cross in front of your superior. If for some reason you need to get in front of your
superior, move away first.
• Definitely leave the part of the table close to the manager to the people at your top level.
• Do not speak at the meeting without permission from the chairman of the meeting and
always address the chairman of the meeting.
• In official vehicles, the protocol authority is the right rear corner of the vehicle. The top
always sits here.
• When you take one of your superiors or a peer as a guest to your vehicle, leave the right
rear corner to him and move to the left.
• If the driver of the vehicle using the official vehicle is your superior or your peer himself,
then move to the driver’s seat (front side).

you turn off the handset.
• There is no kissing of hands and kissing on the cheeks in the protocol and in official
relationships. This is the case only in informal and intimate relationships.
• As a result!
• The legal basis for diplomatic practices is the “Vienna Convention on Diplomatic Relations”
dated 1961. This convention, ratified by 186 countries, is considered the cornerstone of
international relations.

• PROTOCOL PRINCIPLES
• Respect and courtesy are essential in the protocol. (Respect and courtesy to guests,
managers and ladies with authority are essential.)
• In the protocol, it is essential to give a person or institution the importance and value
that is deserved and is worthy of. Not giving the necessary importance and value to a
person or institution, or giving more importance and value than necessary, reduces the
self-worth and reputation of that person or institution.
• In the protocol, the person does not represent himself. The title and institution are
represented.
• The main function of every manager is to represent the institution in the best possible
way.
• Deputy Administrator

and status of that person and institution (authority) as a protocol.
• In public life, the National flag and the superior rank; in public and social life the guest;
in social life the lady always comes first (located on the right).
• The opening speech is given by the host, the last speech is made by the guest of honour.
• The number 1 (top) is always in the middle centre in walking and sitting arrangements
during official ceremonies: 5–3–1–2–4
• At corporate ceremonies, the host is on the right of the guest of honour, who is number
1.
