Building leaders who are masters of their own fate
One Africa offers proven pan-African leadership development journeys for senior and emerging leaders.
Africa's future will be shaped by leaders who take ownership, build networks across boundaries, and drive innovation for good.
But traditional leadership development doesn't always work for Africa's unique context - it's too classroom, too isolated, too generic.
One Africa is different. We combine deep personal coaching with practical inter-company dream projects, peer networks that span the continent, and seasoned intercultural facilitators. We are an unusual combination of data-based 360s with high-touch action learning.
One Africa's vision is to develop leaders who are masters of their own fate to build a continent that is master of its own fate, with positive impact for Africa and Africans.

Your coaching sessions made a big difference in the way I approach work and my team. This change has been seen and recognized as a true transformation. Perhaps more important, my family relationships have also transformed and blossomed. All this comes from what we discussed and what you saw in me.
- William Kayongo, dfcu Bank
You transformed us
from a transactional
to a purposeful company
- Muzzammil, country director Ecom Ghana
Thank you all for giving me a safe space to have discussions that were honest, candid, emotional, real eye opening and more importantly a reminder that I am who I think I am.
- Kate Ojungo
Without you I wouldn’t be here. You are a game changer. You pushed me to get the best out of myself. I took so much from your leadership sessions and coaching.
I learned a lot about myself.
- Senior manager Ecom Ghana
You bring unspoken views above. This helps to get everybody onboard and maximize the quality of change. You don’t make the change faster but more permanent. You make everybody leaders in their own ways.
Exco member, Financial service company East Africa
The change maker
in me has awakened.
There is no way back,
I have got no excuses.
- Participant One Africa program
We built a friendship. There was high trust. But most important to me and my team was your active listening. The person you listen to grows. As my wife says: “you are the only other person I listen to!"
- Rahul, former CEO West Africa and exco member Ecom
This has been incredible. I have never had a workshop like this. We were energized and active all the time. That brought the necessary movement. I come out differently than I got in.

The One Africa Song
Ghanaian singer Susan Augustt composed this song after hearing the One Africa vision at our first retreat. Recorded with South African Idols winner Jeremy Oliver and Zimbabwean artists, it embodies our belief: we are better together.
