Our offer is simple. To the leader who joins us, we offer a program: the training, the experience, the support. To Africa, we offer the leader that program raises. The program is what the individual receives. The leader is what the continent receives.
Our mission is to raise principled, change-driven servant leaders to pioneer Africa's development and transformation, and to raise as many as possible in the most sustainable way. That is what we exist for. That is what we will do, or die trying.
The GracedLife Leadership Centre is a non-profit Christian centre for leadership and entrepreneurship in Africa, established to raise leaders, reorient mindsets, inspire change, and develop a culture of selflessness and integrity among young Africans. TGLC is a place to grow, to dream, and to build.
We are building a network of servant leaders to transform Africa
We exist to ensure there is leadership development for all Africans.
Our vision is to be a network of principled, change-driven servant leaders pioneering Africa's development and transformation. TGLC is a training ground for SDG-focused leaders, a hub for meaningful connections, a space for support and collaboration, and a community for those committed to leading change and shaping the future in Africa.
Six priority focus areas carry the work
People
A new generation of principled, change-driven servant leaders: chosen with care, trained well, mentored closely, and supported to build lasting solutions across Africa.
Programs
World-class, research-backed leadership training designed for Africa's realities, democratizing leadership development for every young African who wants to lead themselves and lead others.
Systems
One organization that runs efficiently, where the right tools, data, and structures bring out the best in every team member, and guard against the worst.
Finances
An organization built for financial independence, with the means to fund its mission today and sustain it for generations to come.
Visibility
An impact seen and experienced across Africa and beyond, drawing the people, partners, and support that help it grow.
Facilities
A permanent home for leadership development in Africa, built to last and fully equipped to support and raise the leaders Africa needs.
Our culture rests on three S's and four G's
- Stewardship
- Servant Leadership
- Selflessness
- Godliness
- Growth Mindset
- Generational Thinking
- Global Thinking
We raise leaders through four stages over three years
Invite
We invite young Africans ready to change the continent by first changing themselves, through a rigorous recruitment process.
Reorient
We reorient mindsets and re-socialize leaders to transform Africa's leadership culture, over a one-year training.
Equip
We align leaders with mentors and experts in the sector they are passionate about, and set them up to succeed.
Send out
We send leaders out to live what they have learned and build their visions, across the final two years.
Raising the next generation leaders is everyone’s responsibility. The youth are Africa’s future and raising them can not be done by one person or one institution.
The Partnership Village is a community of selfless, devoted and passionate people who are ready to commit their skills, knowledge, expertise and substance (cash or kind) towards the development of the next generation leaders in Africa across all sectors.
To help Africa, we must help its youths. Our partnership village provides the opportunity for training, mentorship, skill and knowledge sharing, and supporting aspiring leaders in Africa to lead the change they so desire through leadership, entrepreneurship and community development.
Give financially. Partner institutionally. Collaborate organizationally. Raise Africa's next generation of leaders.
