Africa’s greatest need is ethical and entrepreneurial leadership. On 14 November 2018, the Wheeler Institute for Business and Development and the LBS student-run initiative The Africa Club hosted a recruitment event at Sammy Ofer Centre / London Business School, featuring the African Leadership Academy (ALA) to give entrepreneurial leaders of tomorrow the opportunity to learn more about ALA and to explore ways how to make a change.
The African Leadership Academy (ALA) is the foremost pan-African leadership development institution and a unique potential employer to LBS students. Through a world-class program centred on entrepreneurial leadership, the Academy has trained nearly a thousand young people from 47 African countries in their flagship pre-university Diploma Program and now sits at the forefront of developing impactful young leaders with the mind-set, skills, and networks to have wide-scale social impact across the world.
