OVERVIEW OF THE YALI
REGIONAL LEADERSHIP CENTER
(RLC) WEST AFRICA EMERGING
LEADERS PROGRAM – ONSITE
GHANA AND NIGERIA
The Young African Leaders
Initiative (YALI) was launched by
the United States government
as a signature effort to invest in
the next generation of African
leaders.
WHAT IS YALI?
The Young African Leaders
Initiative (YALI) was launched by
the United States government
as a signature effort to invest in
the next generation of African
leaders. The need to invest in
grooming strong, results-
oriented leaders comes out of
the statistics: nearly 1 in 3
Africans are between the ages
of 10 and 24, and approximately
60% of Africa’s total population
is below the age of 35. Who will
empower and lead these young
Africans? Who will shape the
future of business and
entrepreneurship, civic
leadership, and public
management? In order to
answer these questions, YALI
promotes three models designed
to identify and empower young
leaders: the YALI Mandela
Washington Fellowship
,YALI Network and now the
establishment of Regional
Leadership Centers across Africa.
Supporting this progress, the
Accra Regional Leadership Centre
(RLC), as part of the United
States government initiative,
Young African Leadership
Initiative (YALI), will offer an
innovative and game changing
leadership training program in
Africa. The program will be
hosted by Ghana Institute of
Management and Public
Administration (GIMPA), and the
first cohort will walk through the
doors on the 31st July 2014.
HOW THE PROGRAM IS
DESIGNED
Africa continues to make positive
headlines relating to strong
economic growth, improved
attractiveness for investment as
well as improved governance and
leadership among other areas.
Supporting this progress, the
Accra Regional Leadership Centre
(RLC), as part of united state
government initiative, Young
African Leadership Initiative
(YALI), will offer an innovative
and game changing leadership
training program in Africa. The
program will be hosted by Ghana
Institute of Management and
Public Administration (GIMPA), and
the first cohort will walk through
the doors on the 31st July 2014.
The program is two pronged by
design with the Emerging
Leaders Program targeting
Africa’s young leaders and the
Executive Leadership Program
targeting the more experienced
African leader group. The overall
program entails a combination of
taught content as well as
practical and in-the-field
leadership engagements.
The Emerging Leaders Program
will teach young African leaders
about modern leadership over a
period of 17 weeks. The program
will be broken down into four
phases – a 5 week coursework
phase delivered in-person or
online and the remaining 12
weeks distributed equally among
a mentorship program, internship
or community service, and a
report writing period. Focusing
on the 5 week coursework
phase, it will entail three core
courses (Leadership and
Accountability, Ethics, and
Contemporary issues affecting
Africa) and one elective course
selected from a sample of three
courses covering three themes,
namely Entrepreneurship, Public
Policy and Management, and Civil
Society Management. The in-
person training will be conducted
in Ghana at the Accra RLC
whereas the on-line course will
be available from any location
around West Africa. Course
facilitators/trainers will be
selected from among proven
leaders from Africa and around
the world. Innovative teaching
and training approaches will be
used to enhance learner
experience and motivation. For
example, theoretical content will
be put into context using case
studies, real life organizational
analysis as well as site visits
among other approaches. Various
evaluation methods will be
employed including self-
evaluation/introspection and
assessment of individual or group
work by the course facilitator. In
order to provide the best
experience to online students,
the online course platform will
offer downloading of training
videos, transcripts of lectures as
well as lecture notes and
reports on field/organizational
visits by course participants.
Online chat rooms and other
communication platforms will be
set up to enable learner
collaboration (group work, team
projects etc.) as well as to allow
students engage course
facilitators. It is worth noting,
however, that the curriculum for
both modes of study is the same.
The leadership training program
has developed and will continue
to develop partnerships with
leading universities from the
United States and Ghana,
international and local
development organizations as
well as the private sector in-
order to develop and implement
a strong and innovative
curriculum that will produce
transformative leaders in Africa.
