## When Leadership Failure Is Not An Option, They Call CALS.

A hospital that cannot open without trained staff. A ministry fighting corruption from the inside out. A global brewery navigating one of Africa’s most complex markets. The African Union investing in a generation of leaders it hasn’t met yet. These are not training contracts. These are institutions that trusted us with what mattered most.

## 30+ Institutions. One Continent-Wide Track Record.

---

30+ - Institutional partners since 2012

5 - Ethiopian government ministries reformed

10+ - Years coaching the UN

2000+ - Leaders trained through the African Union alone

## Partnership Highlights

Four relationships. Four proof points of what happens when leadership development is treated as infrastructure, not a workshop.

## A DECADE-LONG INVESTMENT IN AFRICA'S NEXT LEADERS

## African Union Commission

The African Union doesn’t outsource its youth leadership strategy lightly. For ten years, CALS has designed and delivered the AUC’s flagship leadership program — reaching young leaders in every corner of the continent. This isn’t a single workshop replicated at scale. It’s a sustained, decade-long bet that the right leadership formation, delivered consistently, changes the trajectory of a generation.

## 2,000+ young leaders nurtured across the African continent

## COACHING THE COACHES OF DEVELOPMENT ITSELF

## UNDP Ethiopia

Since 2013, the people leading one of the most influential development organizations in Ethiopia have themselves been coached by CALS. It is one thing to train mid-level managers. It is another to be trusted, year after year, with the leadership development of an institution whose decisions shape national policy. That trust has never lapsed.

## 12 consecutive years of executive coaching, uninterrupted

## THE HOSPITAL THAT COULDN'T OPEN WITHOUT US

## Ethio Turkish Hospital

Before Ethio Turkish Hospital admitted its first patient, every doctor and every nurse on staff had already been through CALS. Not orientation. Not onboarding. Leadership formation — the kind that determines whether a new institution survives its first difficult year or thrives through it. When the hospital opened its doors, it opened them with a leadership foundation already in place.

## 100% of clinical staff trained before the hospital became operational

## WHEN A GLOBAL BRAND NEEDS LOCAL LEADERSHIP DEPTH

## Heineken Breweries Ethiopia

Heineken doesn’t need CALS to explain leadership theory. They needed leaders who could navigate Ethiopia’s specific regulatory, cultural, and economic complexity — and adapt fast when conditions changed overnight. Our Adaptive Leadership Program was built for exactly that pressure, and the company’s senior team came through it sharper, not just certified.

## Your Institution's Next Crisis Will Be a Leadership Crisis.

Hospitals, ministries, banks, and global brands don’t come to CALS because they want a training certificate on the wall. They come because the cost of leadership failure — in patient outcomes, in public trust, in market position — is too high to risk. If that’s your reality too, let’s talk.
