Training Talent | Learning & development for 21st Century Africa

AMI’s new report Training Talent provides fresh data on Africa’s talent gap and new insights into how effective workplace learning and development can transform organisations and equip a new generation of managers, entrepreneurs and professionals.

The report and summary were compiled by Jonathan Cook and Bronwen McConkey-Nwandu, with contributions from Rebecca Harrison, Klara Michal and Joan Kamau.  We would like to acknowledge the kind contribution of the IHRM in Nairobi in advising us and facilitating the survey of Kenyan HR professionals in 2016.

You can download a full copy of the report here: www.africanmanagers.com/trainingtalent

We’ve also created some great resources to explain the key insights in the report and the ways we hope to use these insights as we go forward!

                         

We have compiled a data-based story of the report as an infographic and as a visual brief that you can download here.
