Business Partners holds successful 2019 Rwanda CEO Summit"},"content":{"rendered":"<p>Under the theme \u2018Optimizing your decision-making capacity\u2019, attendees represented over 14 industries from Rwanda\u2019s largest and most influential firms in manufacturing, investment and financial services, real estate, construction, agro-processing, hospitality, ICT and professional services. <\/p>\n<p>In an aim to further establish the summit\u2019s commitment to the private sector and next generation of leaders, seven students from the African Leadership University (ALU) consulting club were invited to participate in the larger conversation. <\/p>\n<p>This year\u2019s summit comes on the heels of Karisimbi Business Partner\u2019s 10-year anniversary in Kigali, Rwanda.<\/p>\n<p> Focusing on the summit theme, the morning long agenda featured exclusive, cutting edge research and analysis from Karisimbi Business Partners, keynote address and breakout workshop sessions led by Rwanda\u2019s leading experts in the fields of business, consulting, finance, and leadership coaching. <\/p>\n<p>This research and analysis revealed effective decision making requires immense self-awareness, as well as awareness of the organizational structure and culture one is working within. <\/p>\n<p>The Kilimanjaro Ballroom space at the Kigali Marriott hotel was transformed into a \u2018meetings imagined\u2019 experience, featuring a craft coffee station and an array of live food stations enjoyed by summit attendees prior to entering the summit. <\/p>\n<p>Attendees heard from keynote, Cherno Gaye, CEO of Cogebanque Plc on the importance of achieving collaborative advantage and the importance of profit for sustainable operations and delivering shareholder value. <\/p>\n<p>Followed by a three-part leadership workshop co-facilitated by Annet Baingana, founder of AB Leadership Solutions and Carter Crockett, co-founder and partner of Karisimbi Business Partners; the sessions focused on helping Rwanda-based business leaders better understand how different decision-making styles influence growth and effectiveness, success, and goal accomplishments in current organizations. <\/p>\n<p>Rwanda\u2019s business sector is booming with growth and opportunity, and there is space for all kinds of leaders.<\/p>\n<p> Awareness of these styles will allow leaders in the marketplace to provide expert guidance to the businesses they lead, one decision at a time. &#8220;If you look at our landscape now, there are threats all over the place. <\/p>\n<p>If the building blocks of competitive advantage are the activities that we do and the activities change, you stand to lose your competitive advantage&#8221;, said Cherno Gaye, CEO of Cogebanque Plc. <\/p>\n<p>What the summit revealed, beyond the research gathered, was the strong desire from Rwanda\u2019s leaders to always strive for the excellence.<\/p>\n<p> Now with the second annual Rwanda CEO Summit completed, Karisimbi Business Partners aims to stay committed to hosting this yearly private sector keynote event to spur meaningful dialogue and concrete action that helps encourage new partnerships and develop Rwanda\u2019s private sector. <\/p>\n<p>Karisimbi Business Partners created and produced the 2019 Rwanda CEO Summit in partnership with AB Leadership Solutions, The John Maxwell Team, Cogebanque Plc, Akagera Business Group, Mercedes Benz, Kigali Marriott Hotel, and Rwandair.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"spip-document spip-document-33481 aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\"
