Biola Alabi, former managing director of M-Net Africa, has announced the launch of her new leadership development project, ‘Grooming for Greatness’.
The yearlong programme, which starts with a three-day on-boarding event, will bring leaders across sectors to share their experiences and expertise, and groom the next generation of African business leaders.
The three-day workshop and seminar will also identify exceptional talents who will be mentored by Alabi and her associates over the next year.
The workshop will focus on practical sessions to build the capacity of participants with access to relevant and outstanding role models and leadership tools, including recommended literature through which they can widen their knowledge base while simultaneously drawing inspiration and ideas.

“We have spent the past year working on this crucial intervention. It’s important to give a new generation of African leaders the practical, applicable skills that can truly transform the continent,” Alabi said.
“We want to cultivate an intuitive African programme for young and aspiring professionals and entrepreneurs that recognises the challenges and opportunities inherent in embracing personal greatness in this continent.”
She added that a group of not more than 20 handpicked participants will be guided through the curated programme of workshops, discussions and seminars to help harness their potential and discover greatness.
