I will be a guest speaker at the African Leadership Centre, King’s College London for the second edition of its African Leaders Global Engagement Series themed ‘Leading in Enterprise’ on the 29th of January 2019.

 

The African Leaders Global Engagement Series is hosted by the African Leadership Centre (ALC), King’s College London. Established in 2018, the series invites prominent African leaders and Leading Voices to King’s College London to interrogate the leadership dimension of the development-security nexus in Africa and other parts of the developing world.

 

African leaders participating in the series include current and former Heads of State as well as Leading Voices in business and society across the continent. On this exclusive platform, African leaders reflect on their personal experiences and share solutions to contemporary development and security challenges facing the continent with leadership students and scholars at ALC, King’s and beyond.

 

I look forward to joining the students and faculty members as we share thoughts on leadership principles and practices together.

As a member of CWEIC (Commonwealth Enterprise and Investment Council) Advisory Board, I had the honour of discussing with other panel members how Indian and African businesses can work together to harness business opportunities and forge deeper relationships during the Africa Day session.
