Overview
As a senior leader, you map out your company’s course, chart its strategy and foster a culture guided by clear objectives and a shared mission. Today’s global, interconnected world calls for senior leaders who are uniquely attuned to the economic currents and market shifts that could advance — or undermine — their firm’s long-term sustainability. The Global CEO Programme – Africa has been designed and developed for leaders like you.
