“Africa has her mysteries, and even a wise man cannot understand them. But a wise man respects them.”

Voices Into Africa

Voices Into Africa

Throughout Africa, emerging entrepreneurs and innovative ideas are waiting for the opportunity to fully realise their full potential. The continent is on the cusp of an African revolution that will kick start the world powerhouse that is her African people.This will only be achieved through the identification and development of leaders: leaders who are equipped with the right tools, attitude, and experience to lead our people into the future years of the Africa revolution.

Voices into Africa has the vision to bridge the gap between where we are now and where we need to be with conventions, programmes, and applicable workshops, equipping the future business leaders, speakers and influencers of the continent of Africa.

Crafting-Positive-Futures-for-Africa-Journal

Africa's Futures Journal

We hear too few stories about the amazing futures work and ideas that are brewing in Africa.

In conjunction with a number of other futures thinking / strategic foresight colleagues who live and work in Africa, this journal will share these stories. Many of the futurists involved in this project have advanced degrees in Strategic Foresight, are employed full time in this work and are members of the Association of Professional Futurists (APF).

BWN Coaching Zambia

BWN Entrepreneur Coaching

For the second year I have been invited back to help train and coach the young entrepreneurs who have enrolled in the Brivip World Networks (BWN) Entrepreneur School.

These young entrepreneurs join a series of coaches twice a week to learn what they need to set up a successful business for themselves.

While the other coaches are there with them in Lusaka, Zambia, I coach online via Zoom and WhatsApp. Seeing some of these students succeed and graduate at last year's event was the inspiration I needed to volunteer again this year.
