Introduction

The rise of disruptive technologies like AI, automation, and blockchain, coupled with shifting workforce expectations and the increasing demand for flexible, innovative teams, has made traditional talent management approaches insufficient.

The volatility and complexity of today’s business environment—captured by concepts like VUCA (Volatile, Uncertain, Complex, Ambiguous) and BANI (Brittle, Anxious, Nonlinear, Incomprehensible)—
pose significant challenges for organizations striving to stay competitive.

In Africa, this challenge is further compounded by a unique opportunity: the continent’s  demographic dividend. With a young and growing population, Africa holds immense potential to fuel its economic transformation through effective talent management.

Many struggle to align talent practices with evolving business needs, digital transformation, and the demands of an increasingly diverse and dynamic workforce.

The objective of this 5-day course is to equip leaders and talent management professionals with the strategies, tools, and insights needed to thrive in an ever-evolving world, particularly within the African context.
