In an era defined by volatility, complexity, and global competition, exceptional leadership is no longer about authority—it is about vision, influence, and strategic foresight. Strategic Leadership in the 21st Century is an executive-level masterclass designed for CEOs, policymakers, NGO leaders, mid-career professionals, and entrepreneurs who seek to lead with clarity, drive transformation, and build resilient organizations in a rapidly evolving world.
This immersive program explores the deeper DNA of leadership—visioning, decision-making, innovation, ethics, and cross-cultural agility—through the lens of real-world case studies from both Africa and global markets. Participants will examine leadership models from figures such as Dr. Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala, Paul Polman, Strive Masiyiwa, and Indra Nooyi, gaining insights into how strategic leaders craft long-term impact while navigating uncertainty.
Through intensive lessons, reflective practice, and executive assignments, learners will master how to:
-
Build and communicate a powerful strategic vision
-
Anticipate trends and competitive disruption
-
Lead organizational change with integrity and influence
-
Balance innovation with sustainability and ethical leadership
