Digital CFO Forum Africa 2019 | Naseba | 6 August 2019 | TBA, Johannesburg, South Africa

Naseba’s leadership forums are platforms for organisations and individuals to address business critical and socioeconomic issues. Bringing people together powers idea generation: acting on ideas has the capacity to change the societies we live and work in. But sometimes, understanding how to bring ideas to life comes with obstacles – how do you implement change within an organisation? How can you work more closely with those important people around you to make an active difference?

The forums address today’s issues, including diversity and inclusion, people management and financial strategy. The focus is on enacting positive change – these platforms deliver tangible strategies which drive conversation from intent to impact.
