By 2030 - based on the 12 Pillars of the Global Prosperity Index that currently ranks South Africa 87th out of 167 Countries surveyed
I had no idea that the insights generated from the more than 200 Leaders featured to date are holding the key to solving some of the world's biggest challenges - such as job creation, food security, nation-building and inclusive growth.
from the Leaders interviewed throughout the five seasons, the time has now come to call for
The Inaugural Future Leader Summit
that will see the 200 Future & Current Leaders present and discuss
In other words, Ideas that have the Potential to propel the country to the Next Level and take South Africa into the 'TOP 10 Best Countries to Live In' by 2030 (currently 87th out of 167 Nations measured (ranked by the Legatum Prosperity Index)
by calling on 20 Future-minded Leaders to each present their BIG Idea in a
AGT (America Got Talent) meet TED Talk style presentation
on 19 & 20 May 2023
in the 2023 edition of the Future Leader Book - and all presenters will be invited to share their BIG Idea as part of the Future Leader Academy Curriculum

and at the same time delivered a Visitor Experience that grew inbound tourism by 31% and business tourism up to 47% (and strengthened the exchange rate to a record high of R7/$ - whilst upgrading infrastructure such as major airports, new roads and even the Gautrain which drew gasps of surprise from many international visitors

A few years before the release of Nelson Mandela, spiritual leaders from around the world assembled in a meeting to deliberate the future of planet earth. Unnoticed by the media, the guardians of wisdom came to one singular conclusion about the future of planet earth – that the next quantum leap in human consciousness would arise out of the country that was going to inspire a new meaning of freedom in the world ...
