Nigeria’s brightest development/ non-profit sector professionals prepare to meet, engage, share ideas and deepen perspectives on the defining role of human capital management in achieving the Sustainable Development Goals at the forthcoming Development Dialogue holding 9 a.m. on Thursday, 29th November 2018 at Zone Tech Park, Lagos.
The Dialogue, hosted by Ideation Hub Africa, is Nigeria’s leading thought-leadership Conference for social entrepreneurs, non-profit leaders, public sector practitioners, and CSR professionals. Since 2015, over 700 professional/practitioners across Education, Healthcare, Energy and Environment, Gender Advocacy, Financial Inclusion, Technology Innovation, Media and Arts etc. have attended the event.
This high-octane gathering connects decision makers, Executive Directors, HR leaders, Program Managers, volunteer coordinators, CSR professionals and other professionals in social enterprises, non-profits and impact-driven businesses; who seek cutting-edge insights and global best practices on managing people, processes and performance for greater impact.
Debola Deji-Kurunmi, Executive Director of Ideation Hub Africa (host of the event) spoke passionately “we will sabotage our vision for social impact without a strong understanding of how to raise other leaders, how to hire the right fit for our initiatives, how to structure internal processes and systems for the organization, how to train for strategic competencies, how to rally a sold-out team of volunteers, how to measure and monitor performance; or how to connect brainpower to bottom line.”
This year, delegates will be inspired by Keynote Speeches, Expert Talks, Growth Advisory Panel Session, Open Discussion Forum, Talent of the Future Awards, networking opportunities, Exhibitions etc.
Some past speakers at the Dialogue include Dr. Ousman Dore (Nigerian Country Director, African Development Bank), Ndidi Nwuneli (Founder, LEAP Africa), Mosun Layode (ED, African Philanthropy Forum), Gbenga Sesan (Founder, Paradigm Initiative), Chude Jideonwo (Co-founder, RED Media), Nike Adeyemi (ED, FATE Foundation), Peter Bamkole (Director, EDC, Pan Atlantic University), Dr. Bryon-Adesina (Former Director, South Western Region, DFID), Iyinoluwa Aboyeji (Co-founder, ANDELA, Flutterwave), Funbi Falayi (Co-founder, Passion Incubator) amongst others.
