Training is
indispensable in creating excellent leaders and prepares African leaders
for their challenges. The Leadership Studies Project intends to create a
virtual training center; a highly recognized African training institute
where students obtain diplomas in Leadership Studies and become
excellent trained Africa leaders. The center will not only provide
curricula on leadership, but also serve as a resource center, a gateway
to the rich sources of gray literature on leadership from am African
perspective.
The center aims to
disseminate knowledge on leadership to current and future African
leaders, increase the understanding of leadership in Africa, offer easy
access to African literature on leadership, and finally broaden the
resource base f current and future African leaders. It is believed that
this virtual center will be an important step in upgrading the quality
of leadership training together with providing adequate information for
effective solutions to Africa’s problems.
