Your Host Coach Africa
Africa, the home of civilization! The land where stories were told with a future of greatness foreseen.
African Excellence did not come without trials and tribulations. It has been a journey, a journey where the ubuntu spirit elevated us to greatness and amplified the spirit of a great Continent.
Holding up one another, pushing each other to become better, guiding, motivating and inspiring others has been and continues to be an important part of our African culture.
It is with these values engrained within us at Coach Africa, that we intend to continue the spirit of building exceptional leaders. Leaders in different capacities and walks of life who are walking the path of reimaging what can be. Leaders who stand for the betterment of their individual growth and collectively as a Continent. Leaders who use their transformational journey to help transform society. Our purpose is to build leaders with the capacity to influence others through inspiration, motivated by passion, generated by vision, produced by a conviction and ignited by a purpose.
Coach Africa … where Excellence is past, present and the future.
African people both on the Continent and in the diaspora, share not merely a common history, but a common destiny.

Inaction is not an option
Jim Rohn once famously said: "For things to change, You got to Change". The same applies to organizations: For things (performance, impact etc) to change, YOU as a leader got to change and step up.
If you do nothing, the best way to predict your future is by looking at your past.
Any sort of change starts with THE DECISION to take meaningful action.
It is much easier:
- For Organizations: To continue doing business as usual, to think of Purpose as some kind of vague and abstract concept
- For Coaches: To think that if you work hard in your coaching practice, clients will come in eventually
- For High-Level Individuals and Seasoned Executives: To dream or just talk about eventually owning an online business, buying courses, believing everything else will come together, being stuck in overwhelm
It does not need to be that way
The African Excellence Summit will bring together decision makers and thought leaders from across the continent in the public, private and development sectors to drive Africa’s transition towards a purpose-first economy anchored on excellence and leadership.
Premised on the belief that changing our collective mindsets and getting rid of our limiting beliefs about what is possible for our beloved continent, the African Excellence Summit will share real life stories from African trailblazers and thought leaders who have and continue to leave lasting legacies in the government, private and development sectors; build inclusive, resilient and sustainable systems that work for all. It will also serve as a springboard in helping you navigate the purpose-first economy to bring transformation to yourselves and the sectors in which you operate.
