NEPAD hosts NBF African Leadership Programme

The event will discuss leadership challenges being faced by Africa and the course outline of the 2009 NBF African Leadership Programme.

Executive speakers who will be discussing the African leadership challenges faced by the continent are; Dr. Reuel Khoza, chairman, NEPAD Business Foundation (NBF) and author of the book “Let Africa Lead” Jonathan Cook, ALP programme director, Gordon Institute of Business Science (GIBS).

The new NBF African Leadership Programme: Building African Competitiveness focuses on the challenges facing organisational leaders from both the private and public sectors as well as civil society organisations in developing countries - particularly Africa.

Key aspects of the programme:

Success of national economies and organisations
What government and business need to do to ensure institutions work successfully
What steps African economies need to take to be globally competitive.

“The clear focus on Africa makes this programme unique, particularly in terms of the direct and tangible benefits that sponsoring organisations will derive from participation,” says Simon Tankard, director: executive education, GIBS.

The breakfast will take place between 7.30am and 9.30am at the MTN Offices, 216 14th Avenue, Fairland, Roodepoort.
