Empowering Africa's tomorrow, together

What’s new in 2023: •

In 2022 there were fully virtual and partly face-to-face options for all programs due to COVID restrictions. In 2023 there will be no virtual options for Transform, Amplify, and Sustain, but virtual and face-to-face options will remain for Leap, due to the historical demand for this audience segment. • To create a sense of true immersion and cohort cohesiveness, all program launches will be hosted in person in Johannesburg, creating opportunities for delegates to be exposed to ExCo in face-to-face engagement and fireside chat-type activities, with opportunities to link up with mentors from the Alumni Community. • An exciting incentive has been added whereby participants will compete to get the opportunity to present their project concepts or TED Talks to ExCo and/or the Board at the end of the programs, for further exposure, sponsorship, and showcasing their innovative ideas and concepts. • At the end of 2022, the ADP Alumni Community was launched, which has been designed to satisfy Absa’s need to develop and support our alumni leaders beyond formal learning. This is to enable opportunities for Absa colleagues to continue their development journey and ultimately move into Master/Expert levels of competence, where they can co-create, innovate, teach, and shape innovation and best practices. Not only continuing their own leadership development but also paying their knowledge and experience forward to the benefit of Absa, industry, and society.
