Mastering the Human Side of Innovation and Impact for Africa
Mastering the Human Side of Innovation and Impact for Africa
Africa's leaders are being asked to solve problems traditional leadership was never designed to address. CLI Ignite is a high-impact, in-person institute for the senior executives, public-sector leaders, founders, and teams navigating that change, with the tools to make better decisions, lead through uncertainty, manage people well, and take their organizations into new territory.
In-Person | August 2-6, 2027
CLI Ignite is for:
Leaders
Leaders facing a complex, systemic challenge, not just a technical fix, that calls for cross-functional alignment and who are ready to move from managing compliance and putting out fires to building self-sustaining, continuous-learning organizations.
Teams
Participants come as teams, not solo heroes, bringing the full range of roles needed to address their organization’s core challenge. Teams that want to build collective capacity instead of leaning on a single hero leader, bringing the range of roles it'll take to solve the challenge they carry.
Senior Executives
Senior executives and executive teams operating in or scaling across the continent- including ministers, policymakers, and civil-service leaders; NGO and foundation leaders; university and education leaders; and founders and entrepreneurs.
If you lead, make hard calls, and shape where your organization goes next, we built this for you.
