Directors Week Celebration Committee
Good Corporate Governance and Leadership are the critical fundamentals in every human endeavour including political, public and private sector pursuits for success and excellence. In recent times, this has become a very critical issue of concern which is impacting negatively on the attainment of organizational and personal leadership goals. It is appearing as if leadership is failing at all fronts in Africa; Public, Private, Industry, Regulation, Political, Chieftaincy, Academia, Religion and Individual fronts.
It is expected also that all existing Corporate Governance Institutions not yet members of the ACGN will be robed into membership of the Network.
