7 Complete leadership training

SEVEN people at the weekend graduated after leadership training from the Sundolous African Leadership Training Institute (SALT) in Accra.
The seven-week course which is aimed at developing the inherent potential in God-fearing people is to equip them to assume leadership positions in the areas of business, academia, the church among others.
The graduants- six males and a female included bankers, businessmen and students studied programmes such as Spirituality of Leadership and Capital Development.
The National Co-ordinator of SALT-Ghana, Dr (Mrs) Fatima Alabo, said the vision of the institute was to train and build leaders who could understand the prophetic climate of their people in order to translate God’s plan into reality through planned implementation.
She implored the new graduates to put the knowledge they had acquired at the disposal of those who needed them in order that lives could be transformed.
According to her it behoved the youth to take advantage of economic and spiritual ventures because that could guarantee them a leadership of integrity to transform the image of Africa.
She said God had blessed Ghana with abundant natural resources and noted that such resources could only be utilised to the benefit of the populace with properly trained and God fearing people.
The institute which ran its programmes on Saturdays has a certificate course designed to strengthen potential leaders in God’s ministry to encourage biblical faithfulness as well as pastoral activities.
The National Co-ordinator for SALT-India, Dr Kodzo K. Alabo, who spoke on the topic “Enlightened and Transformational Leadership- necessary requirement for success in this season.”, charged them to lead exemplary lives for the society which he described as the “best form of transformational leadership”.
Dr Alabo believed that with that kind of leadership the youth of today could draw inspiration from it to form the basis for their readiness to want to aspire to greater heights.
“The world now require a new approach to leadership and such a paradigm shift would largely depend on the youth of our society”.
According to him God had a plan for each an every individual and the realisation of those plans to a larger extent depended on the person involved.
He called on the graduants not to relent in their efforts at putting their knowledge gained to mentoring others.
Mr Clement Fomevor, one of the graduants later told the Daily Graphic on behalf of his colleagues that the knowledge acquired would be brought to bear on their individual professions.
