YPO proudly participated and partnered with the Africa CEO Forum in Kigali, where around 2,000 leaders gathered to tackle critical #challenges and #opportunities for Africa! This year’s theme, “At the Table or On the Menu?” highlighted the urgent need for Africa to navigate the shifting global landscape characterized by #geopolitical tensions, #climate challenges, and the #AI revolution. YPO played a significant role at the forum, with 10 YPO member speakers sharing their insights and expertise and more than 40 YPOers participating in the forum. And more than 50 participants joined a YPO event at ACF entitled "THE FUTURE AFRICAN LEADER: SHAPING AFRICA’S TOMORROW." This initiative, curated by YPO, invited attendees to immerse themselves in the personal stories of African leaders who are not just at the table but are shaping the agenda for a transformative future. The session offered an inspiring narrative of leading with authenticity, learning through shared experiences, and making a multigenerational impact. The workshop provided insights into becoming better leaders and a vision of how leadership can shape Africa's future. Our networking booth provided a space for YPOers to connect and engage each other and with attendees interested in joining YPO. Thank you to ACF organizers and YPO Members for a remarkable event.

Managing Director & Consultant @ Amirror | Transforming Organizations | Dual MSc Candidate in Brain & Mind Sciences @ UCL | Nonflict Forum Facilitator | Inside-Up Breathwork Facilitator
I think it was Carl Jung that once said that the meeting of two personalities is like the contact between two chemicals, so that if there’s any reaction, BOTH are transformed. I definitely changed this week at the continent where it all started. By co-facilitating with Dr. Amir Kfir (ד"ר אמיר כפיר) the YPO Africa regional forum retreat, followed by a training to the YPO Gold in Johannesburg, I connected more deeply to my own sense of purpose and witnessed the transformative power of human connection. Through Nonflict Forum and breathwork techniques, the individual and collective benefit from elevated self-awareness, increased intimacy, enhanced collaboration, well being, and performance. My take home value is that when I come into an interaction humble and curious, without expectations, magic happens- real learning and co-creation rise. Thank you Gary Wachsberger, Raoul Gamsu, and Bev Gamsu for bringing those great groups of talented people together and many thanks to Lindi Kritzinger ⋆ Regional Learning Manager ⋆ Agile Coach P.J.
