Leadership

In the shadow of Mount Cameroon, resilience isn’t a fleeting trait—it’s a legacy carved into the land and its people. As we navigate Week 4 of our April theme—Resilience: Thriving Through Change and Challenge—we’re focusing on the principles that make resilience endure. For African executives, leading through change isn’t just about surviving the moment; it’s about creating a foundation that withstands time.

Resilience isn’t just about weathering the storm; it’s about emerging from it with a legacy of purpose and impact. Socrates’ words still ring true: “The secret of change is to focus all of your energy not on fighting the old, but on building the new.” This week, let’s build a lasting mark as authentic leaders.

As April winds down here in Buea, Cameroon, the air carries a mix of reflection and anticipation. The rains may soften the earth, but they also remind us of our strength to endure and grow through every season. This week, as we enter Week 4 of our theme—Resilience: Thriving Through Change and Challenge—let’s focus on finishing strong.

This Wednesday, we’re diving deep into the principles of resilient leadership.

Change is rarely gentle—it sweeps in like a sudden storm over the Bakweri plains, testing our foundations and demanding we rise to the occasion. As African executives, we know this well. Whether it’s adapting to new market trends in Douala or guiding a team through uncertainty in Yaoundé, resilience is the heartbeat of effective leadership. This Wednesday, as part of our April theme—Resilience: Thriving Through Change and Challenge—we’re diving deep into the principles that help leaders not just survive change, but lead through it with purpose and strength.
