The ‘Inspire Ghana’ series is a leadership programme designed to challenge leaders, entrepreneurs, professionals and the youth to achieve a greater level of excellence.
According to Mr Mawuko Afadzinu, Head of Marketing and Communications at Stanbic Bank, the programme will be in three sessions. Vusi will interact and mentor the students of University of Ghana Business School and staff of Stanbic Bank, after which the series will be climaxed with an evening with some commercial banking customers of Stanbic at Labadi Beach Hotel.
“Change is the new normal,” Mr Afadzinu said. “And who best to bring this home than the sharpest public speaker this side of the Atlantic?”
According to Mr Afadzinu, the bank is looking to make the ‘Inspire Ghana’ series an annual event where global business icons will be given the platform to share with Ghanaians, the blueprints of their success stories.
Popularly known as the Rockstar of Public Speaking, Vusi will speak on the theme “Realising the Potential in You”.
At the age of 17, Vusi was already a highly-ranked ranked public speaker in Africa and Europe. At 21, he ran a $26 million division in a multi-billion dollar enterprise. He is currently the Managing Director of a boutique investment and advisory firm. He speaks in four of the seven continents to over 350 000 people each year.
